SANTIAGO, Chile—Veteran adult industry filmmaker Magnus Sullivan, the co-owner of Manshop.com and author of the blog and recent book "Better Than the Hand," recently spoke in Santiago, Chile, with Jane Morgan (founder of Chile’s first sex-positive Toy store, Japi Jane) and Jaime Coloma (one of Chile’s best-known TV personalities) about male sexuality and the importance of a sex positive culture. His message about the importance of masturbation and porn quickly made national headlines.
"I felt it was important on many levels to bring the message of Manshop.com and Betterthanthehand.com to Chile," Sullivan said, noting that the country had also just elected a conservative businessman as President. "I was really surprised, however, by the response I received. People are both entranced and terrified by the simple message that open, consensual sexuality in all of its forms is healthy. You would think that this would be common knowledge by now, but people are still shocked by even the most innocuous statements about self-pleasure and the benefits of porn."
