Excerpt from Betty Dodson: My Sexual Revolution

Walking to my studio on West 29th Street early one morning, I ran into a man who had worked as a commercial artist for my former husband. Sergio DiNolti had been fat and homely, but the man standing in front of me was trim and very muscular with a lean, appealing face. As I admired his miraculous change, he said he'd been doing Karate four times a week. As we walked towards my studio, I sensed some extraordinary sex was about to take place. Luckily my diaphragm was still in place from the sex I'd had with Grant the night before.

A New Doc About Jim Haynes

I first met Jim Haynes in the offices of Grove Press owned by Barney Rosset who broke through US censorship barries and brought us Lady Chatterley's Lover. Barney also published a radical chic magazine called Evergreen. The afternoon Jim and I met, I invited Jim to join me and a few friends for some friendly sex at my place that evening. We made love not war! Jim recipracated by inviting me to be a judge at the second Wet Dream Film Fesitval in Amsterdam and natually, I accepted. A year later Evergreen Magazine published an interview with me titled "The Fine Art of Lovemaking that included twenty images of my erotic art. Many people today still have a copy of that issue published back in February 1971.

It's been ages since I've seen Jim, so I can't wait to see his documentary. Hey! Where is my documentary? Could it be that my story is still too hot to handle? A guy can love sex but not a woman? Oh, I forgot. It's okay if she is a porn star, a prostitute, a pole dancer or a madam. But not if she's enjoying sex just for the fun and pleasure it provides.
