This week’s issue of Time Out New York is all about porn. Something, that from time to time, we are down with.
The story is an exploration into New York’s porn biz, which apparently is starting to give California a run for its money. Our favorite part of the issue is the handy (ha, ha get it?) dandy guide to porn shops and sex stores. There are reviews for 6 Manhattan and 2 Brooklyn shops and the article alerts us to each store’s “most whimsical item” like Empire Erotica’s cell phone vibrator. They also review the shop’s video booths. Passion on West 14th leaves a thoughtfully placed paper towel on each seat, FYI.
Also featured in the issue is Heather Reznor. She is PR maven to Michael Lucas and the chick who sends us all our gay porn, in glittery red envelopes no less. She is profiled in “The Cogs of Porn,” profiles of behind the scenes porn peeps. She has a blog too. And she does stand up. Yes, a woman comedian working in gay porn. Only in New York.
