The Asa Akira limited edition zine by Stephen Vanasco [image credit: Stephen Vanasco]
In this week’s edition of The Reverse Cowgirl: a porn star zine featuring Asa Akira, erotic art tapestries, lusting for Luigi “The Adjuster” Mangione, and more.
If you’re wondering Why aren’t there more zines featuring totally hot babes? L.A.-based photographer Stephen Vanasco has an answer. He’s been putting out a series of limited-edition zines featuring the likes of Asa Akira (pictured above), Tianna G., Remy LaCroix, and Lana Rhoades. I got a copy of the Akira zine, but these things sell out fast. Get Remy’s here while you can. (@stephenvanasco)
Apparently, Peacock has made a Girls Gone Wild documentary. I haven’t seen it, but I’m sure it’s filled with non-stop salacious shots designed to titillate the viewer while a bunch of people spout scolding commentary. (YouTube)
The Pornhub Year in Review has landed. Most viewed category: MILF. Most searched for term in the U.S.: hentai. Most searched for porn star: Angela White. Is someone going to write their doctoral dissertation on this data? (Pornhub)

Legendary ‘90s porn star Heather Hunter talks being a Soul Train dancer! New York is in the house when HH is on the dance floor. You go, girl. (YouTube)
Kim Kardashian is having some kind of a relationship with a robot, although it’s unclear what. Mostly this Kim-and-a-robot shoot looked like a half-assed ripoff of Tom Ford’s iconic 2005 layout in W Magazine shot by Stephen Klein, which featured Tom, some synthetic sex dolls, and some human sex dolls.
Artist Marian Henel created complex, terrifying, pornographic, fascinating, explicit, and obscene giant woven erotic art tapestries with an enormous loom while institutionalized in a mental institution in Poland. (DailyArt Magazine)
“He depicted nude overweight women, occasionally men, nurses in white coats and caps, buttocks turned toward the viewer, and erotic scenes. Among Henel’s designed and executed images are portrayals of ejaculation, menstruation, urination, and defecation. There are also depictions of hangmen, witches, ghosts, and human-animal hybrids.”
Vanessa Friedman delivers a particularly dumb take on UnitedHealthcare CEO-purported killer Luigi Mangione for the Times. Most of Friedman’s takes are bad, whether on fashion or culture more broadly, so it’s no surprise she misses the boat on lusting for Mangione. Guess she has workplace healthcare. (NYT)
Please enjoy Lelya Kurash exhibiting some next level strip club-type dancing. Somehow StripLab is involved. I believe this is Moscow-based? (YouTube)
Recently, I read a comic called Death of Power 5 by Kirt Burdick. It’s extremely wild and intensely graphic. I mean, there’s like a vibrator bomb projectile and spaceships with boobs. Now I must read the rest of the series. (Kickstarter)
And, finally, The New Yorker reviews a new nonfiction book about the history of attempting to regulate sex work in America. “[Author Eva] Payne seeks to reveal the often conflicting ways in which cities, states, and the federal government attempted to control the sale of sex, both in domestic contexts and overseas, when it was determined that American interests were at stake.” (NYer)
