I'll be more concise this time. I'm a confidently straight man, very masculine, very accepting of everyone, especially those who have different opinions, perspectives, and thoughts than myself, and I've chosen to be single for the past twenty-ish years. I'm happily single and so happy to be fifty years old, to be who I am, physically (I love for people to guess my age because they almost always say forty-two), intellectually, philosophically, and I love my favorite subject to research, my favorite hobby, my favorite shopping subject, and my most frequent internet search topic. When I made the choice to be single, to learn to be happily so, to learn as much about who I am and what makes me, me, I also understood that I needed to live a fulfilling life sexually. I made the choice to research, study, and learn everything I could about masturbation in general, how to masturbate as well as I possibly could (which never ends because I keep learning new and exciting things), and to understand more about something I know, deep in my heart, that everyone who can do it, does it, whether they admit it or lie about enjoying it. If they truly don't participate, I'm deeply saddened by their fear, their lack of courage, that social pressures or values have left them this way, or that they are unable to question their own beliefs to never work towards becoming better and enjoying more, a gift from evolution or whatever higher power that created us, gave us to enjoy. The most critical things in my life revolve around honesty, authenticity, logic (in spite of social values and judgements), and I seek those things that others doubt I can do, those things that others claim can't be done, those things that people accept as truths without understanding why or where they derive, and I love to live that impossibility that they doubt or claim as the way it is without the logically reasoning or understanding. Being single, happily, is something that most people are unable to fathom or are so fearful of experiencing. Further, being proud of how I masturbate, being grateful for taking courses to learn how to do it as well as possible, understanding that I've exceeded my highest visions of how much pleasure I can achieve or what I could do when I thought it was a myth is something very few can understand. This brings me to porn, which is the least authentic, least honest, and most theatrical misrepresentation of sexual activity that exists. I do watch some things considered \"porn\", but after years of questioning what really aroused me, reassured me, validated the activity that I was enjoying (masturbating for lengths of time, very motion oriented, with intent, and enjoying my full body openly without judgment - or with a lot of anal and prostate activity which I am very proud to say is something I do every time and with however much energy I desire), I found that I was turned off by the over produced fake tits, old dude who works out too much and has a giant, medically enhanced dong, uncomfortably dominating a tiny woman with a fake tan who is clearly less than twenty-five, watching his hairless, dangling sack as she is in a pretzel and clearly not enjoying the experience as much as her fake orgasm deceives the audience, only to have the dude squirt an impossible quart sized load on her then spit in her mouth or vagina. That's theater. I found that I enjoy the real, flawed, normal looking woman, who is alone, sets up her cam, goes about her pleasure the way she enjoys with authenticity, whether she has an orgasm or not, she gets up, turns off the cam, the end. This is why I love MLNP. These people are real, I don't like cameras that move about because I know its some guy who likely coerced \"his chic\" into making a video that she may not know was shared online. I like the real, the woman who is horny, fine with being alone, not embarrassed to rub her vulva and make a little, real noise, when she authentically feels pleasure, and is aroused by sharing this beautiful moment with others or fantasizes about being the inspiration for other people to masturbate to her beautiful solo sexual activities. My questions: You obviously believe that real, true, and authentic masturbation is important for people to share and others to watch and enjoy, or there would be no MLNP. Thank you because I have spent many, many hours enjoying these videos. Most are exactly what arouses me most, the self video, consensual posted by the person who made the video, and from those women who enjoy sharing or showing their pride in how they give and receive pleasuring themselves. Does the larger porn industry understand that the stylized, over produced, and inauthentic theatrics are not the pattern that they must always follow? Is the market for the stylized porn so strong that the demand dictates that this will be the way people desire their erotic videos? Am I the small minority of those who would rather masturbate to more authentic self made videos by more normal or average women (or people)? Knowing that I am more of the rarity in that I studied masturbation, myself, and learned to drop the shame and embarrassment, and have grown to be proud of applying what I've learned, but that I still seek validation and arousal by watching women who are as confident to share their solo sexual experiences, is the market and options for open minded enthusiasts who enjoy sharing their self pleasure experiences growing? (I feel that as trends of those who admit they enjoy, embrace, or are willing to learn how to masturbate better, and as markets expand, devices are evolving, technology becoming more diverse and complex, and access is everywhere, there should be more demand for more authentic media from less stylized subjects, those who video their fiddling and diddling.) As perception, acceptance, enthusiasm, and those who seek to get more pleasure from how they masturbate or the pleasure they feel from the experience, MLNP is a great example of the real and the actual versus the theatrics of traditional porn. Is there a path or are their pathways that need to be focused on and made available for more people to understand, enjoy, and access more ethical, real, and authentic media that normalizes what masturbation is in an honest depiction of the activity and the true pleasure that a person who has worked hard at improving their skills, increasing their pleasure, and learned to explore and apply techniques then shares what they learned so others can see that masturbation is what a person makes of it? How can I promote and support non-porn enjoyment of masturbation? Being a man who has worked for twenty years to overcome religious, cultural, socially misdirected values and judgments, and worked really hard to push what I thought was possible to far beyond what I ever believed as the highest levels of what I could feel and how much I could experience from the sex that I give to myself, yet remain humbled by who I am as a person, is there some way I can support the work of wonderful, brave, people, pioneers, (like Betty Dodson who I first learned to take responsibility for my own pleasure and to explore my whole body (and hole body!), Helena Nista who provided a fantastic, online, eight week course on masturbation that took me much longer because of issues I discovered in my self worth and that led to an orgasmic experience that seriously scared me, Jocelyn Elders who courageously endorsed masturbation during the AIDS epidemic but was fired, and pioneers, especially yourself) who courageously follow their passion and make their mission in life something that most are too afraid to discuss, even hypothetically? It's May, the International recognized month to celebrate masturbation (and as soon as I send this, I'm getting setup for a session with some specific intent and goals!!! I love May), what ways do you recommend that can I celebrate masturbation without garbage, overproduced, porn, and enjoy arousing media while I happily and proudly use my thrusting machine and simultaneously feel the pleasure of my hands all over my body, especially all over the erogenous areas I locate during pre-masturbation pleasure mapping?","author_name":"C S.

Right now we have a tiny team of five FTEs. For the past few years, we have not been able to afford a CTO + dev team, and our platform has not functioned optimally as a result. We were fortunate to find the CTO of our dreams, John Allison, last fall - he is incredibly kindly working pro-bono for us until we have the funds to pay him, and he has dramatically improved our tech scenario since coming on board, including building and launching a new, upgraded site earlier this year, which we are in the process of optimizing for conversion and revenue-growth, powered by something we have also not been able to access in the past - full data analytics. On the marketing and promotion front, while we (like every other female-lens sexual health and wellness venture) face advertising barriers, those barriers fall when we are able to put more funding behind marketing. 2) I foresaw the creator economy 15 years ago when I concepted MLNP around a revenue-sharing business model. Our MakeLoveNotPornstars receive 50% of every rental fee (eg $1.25 of every a la carte individual $5 rental, $1 of every $2 rental in our $10/month for five videos subscription level, etc etc). 3) We're raising this funding to enable us to build and launch an MVP of MLNP Academy - hitting our $1million target will mean we can do that. 4) No, it's very straightforward, a standard SAFE at 20% discount. 5) MakeLoveNotPorn is, as our brand name indicates, not porn, but pioneering a new category of social sex - #realworldsex shared socially in exactly the same way we share every other area of our lives on big social media platforms, except for this one universal area of human experience which all of those platforms ban, censor and de-platform to the detriment of society. If porn is the Hollywood blockbuster movie - produced, performative, scripted entertainment - MakeLoveNotPorn is the badly-needed documentary: the only window on to how we all have messy funny loving wonderful sex in the real world, with the unique ability to change people's sexual attitudes and behavior for the better. We answer the question everyone has been asking since the dawn of time - 'What is everyone else REALLY doing in bed?!' :) We do not have any direct competition of this nature - Bellesa is porn (I'm afraid I have no insight into their business).

I make it clear to investors that this is a valuation based on future potential vs past performance - sextech is still a massively under-invested in and under-valued sector."},{"question":"Hi @cindy-gallop, how often will you communicate updates to Wefunder investors after the campaign closes? I've noticed some founders go missing in action ('fail to communicate') once a crowdfunding campaign closes.","answer":"I can promise you we plan to communicate regularly (we'll confirm the precise schedule post-campaign closing). In our case, we regard every one of our amazing WeFunder investors as ambassadors for the brand, something we value highly given the imposed constraints on our ability to promote and advertise MakeLoveNotPorn, and we will keep everyone updated on progress and ask to spread the word at appropriate junctures (eg when we are able to launch https://www.makelovenotporn.academy/ )."}]}}}
