I guess missed the boat or something when Green Porno came out but this ish is comedy genius–and educational! I saw it for the first time last week when my friend, bored with the pilot episode of “The L Word,” said “So basically they just have a lot of sex and Marina is the same person as Isabella Rosselini. Let’s watch Green Porno instead.”
If this tickles your fancy, I would recommend “Dolphin,” “Snail,” and “Whale.”

Oh my god, this defined my senior year of college. I recommend praying mantis.

That was so eerie…
Gotta watch more!
That was surprisingly graphic and educational. I didn’t expect the ending. Good pick! :P
Isabella Rosselini is the best ever for making her green porno videos (and a book? I believe there is a green porno book somewhere that was just as wacky as the videos).
Actually there is: “Green Porno: A Book and Short Films by Isabella Rossellini”
So not only a book but a DVD with all the shorties!
This is awesome, and hilarious. And interesting! The earthworm one was quite informative.
the snail one hurt my eyes, so disturbing yet fascinating.
I can’t decide between the bee and the snail as my favorite. These are so funny.
hahahaa “So basically they just have a lot of sex and Marina is the same person as Isabella Rosselini.”
If you like this you should read DR TATIANA’S SEX ADVICE TO ALL CREATION by Olivia Judson, it’s a book about the evolutionary biology of sex in the form of an advice column, all manner of creatures write in with their problems and Judson answers (through her Dr. Tatiana persona), there’s one from a queen bee wondering why her lovers always explode and leave their penises lodged in her after sex, I make my hs bio classes read it whenever I teach sexual selection or animal behavior, it’s like their favorite thing
Brb going through the amazon link to my right to investigate this book.
WTF? – first reaction
This is genuis! – second
Wow. That series is fascinating.
Oh Green Porno, how do I love thee <3 The bee one is totally my favorite.
These are so endlessly quotable and informative. learned that snails dig S&M, and I will now yell “NOTHING STOPS ME. SEEEEEEX!” on a daily basis.
Nevermind. My newly discovered favorite phrase is from the Spider episode: “I will dig my palpi in her epigyne and run off.”
…Dolphins. I never knew.
now we know what Brittany meant when she said that dolphins are just gay sharks
Dammit Autostraddle, I need to graduate and you are so not helping.
My favourite is “Spider”!
I write my Bachelor of arts partly about “Green Porn”, it’s glorious!
Oh my God. This is genius. I love the blood that moves on it’s own, and “I will die…without my penis!”
My favorite is “Noah’s Ark” but I think it’s from a different series called “seduce me” and it’s pretty awesome… basically it’s all, things aren’t as simple as 1 male and 1 female, so what then Noah? What then??

I think my brain just got raped but I kind of liked it. O_O
