@iamcuriousblue, Wikipedia, you say? Do you have any thoughts or comments on the following: http://forum.adultdvdtalk.com/forum/topic.dlt/topic_id=112336/forum_id=1/cat_id=1/112336.htm

Putcshi –

Well, IAFD and the like are simply going on release dates, and its often the case that release dates for porn can be a while after the material was actually filmed. AFAIK, she isn’t doing porn anymore, with the possible exception of her website (Kayden420.com).

And as for fabrication, I’m not going on what was said by Farley (who in addition to her usual biases, actually knows damn little about what went on, other than the Luke Ford stuff she repeated). I’m going on what Kayden Faye said on her own blog, link here:

@Iamcuriousblue, I stand corrected, “Upload” was filmed in 2007, not 2008. However, Kayden Faye did appear in a BDSM scene in the film. She was locked in a cage and dominated by Aiden Starr. As well, as for Farley’s allegation that Faye’s experience at Kink.com forced her to leave in January 2008, her IAFD file ( http://www.iafd.com/person.rme/perfid=KaydenFaye/gender=f/Kayden-Faye.htm ) still lists her as being active as of this year.

@Iamcuriousblue, if that story is not a fabrication, then answer me this. How come Farley reported that Kayden Faye left the business in January of 2008 (the date of the entry concerning this incident on Farley’s blog), when Kayden Faye appeared as a submissive being dominated by Aiden Starr in a dungeon scene in the movie “Upload,” which was filmed in May of 2008?

Speaking of Wikipedia pages, the entry on Melissa Farley gives some good background on her, and among the many references and external links cited therein are some hard-hitting critiques from other academics of her methodology and conclusions. (Full disclosure: I’m primary author of the Wikipedia article in question)

“Chanta-Rose posted a comment on Claire Adams’ blog about how Farley took part in the fabrication of a story that attacked Kink.com Here is the link: http://claireadams.livejournal.com/66034.html“

Unfortunately, the story is not a fabrication on the part of Melissa Farley – Kayden Faye really does claim to have been injured on the set of Kink.com. I’ve posted links about this over at the thread on Chanta-Rose’s blog that you link to.

Thank you for this post. The attack on the BDSM in general also bugged the hell out of me. I can see though, how hard it is for the “outsiders” to even begin to comprehend what it’s about (which does not excuse this kind of ignorant attack).

I was always interested in BDSM play (my first fantasies :-), but had only recently, 5 years ago, found a perfect partner to explore with. Wow. The overwhelming amount of intimacy, joy, love and trust in a BDSM relationship is a gift I couldn’t have imagined before it was given to me in full.

Melissa Farley obviously has some major issues – she even burned Penthouse for “violent porn”. Unfortunately, nuts in the position of authority can do a lot of damage…

I’ve added your post to my blog – I wrote about Matt’s article on 22nd, and am updating the post with news, links and developments on a regular basis.

By the way, did Matt ever respond to your call for a debate?
