Amateur Exhibitionists

I’ve extolled the virtues of amateur porn on the ‘net in this column before, and I’ll keep doing so. Any truly empowering, revolutionary technology will be turned to pornographic use (look what the printing press did for the porn industry, after all!). Ever since Polaroid first made it possible for the average guy to take naked pictures of his wife for later enjoyment, amateur exhibitionists have been utilizing whatever new technology comes along for similar purposes. Sure, a lot of people do it for profit — there are certainly lots of webcam girls out there eager to take your money in exchange for streaming video of naughty acts — but I’ve always been more charmed by the personal, not-for-profit exhibitionists. Here are a few examples.

Self Shot Girls is a blog compiling lots and lots of photos of mostly naked or scantily-clad women, all taken by the women themselves, with the aid of mirrors or simple contortions. There are lots of cuties here, and something about the off-the-cuff spontaneity of many of these photos is really quite enchanting. There’s about nine months worth of archives, with hundreds of photos, so enjoy!

There’s a certain anonymity to the site above, though, and wouldn’t a true exhibitionist embrace the publicity? Naked Jen certainly does. She’s a Santa Cruz, California blogger who posts on a variety of subjects with humor and insight, and, almost incidentally, publishes quite a few photos of herself nude, usually in public, on her blog. Come for the prurience, stay for the writing.

Let’s not forget the joys of accidental exhibitionism, though. Google Sightseeing, a site devoted to finding interesting things to look at using Google Earth, has compiled a handy list, with photos, of “The Top Ten Naked People on Google Earth”. Satellite photos of tiny people sunbathing nude on their rooftops aren’t exactly titillating, but they’re funny, which is good enough.

And, finally, one of the best — or at least, most enthusiastic — hardcore amateur porn clips I’ve seen in a long time. (The video is hosted at Xtube.com, which requires registration, so I’m saving you the hassle of making up a username by linking to the excellent Fleshbot blog’s coverage of the clip, which includes the embedded video). It’s always nice to see a happy couple playing dress-up and having passionate sex. Makes you want to break out the digital camera and play along at home, doesn’t it?
