Barcelona
International Erotic Film Festival
The Barcelona International Erotic Film Festival is the highlight
of the year for the Spanish porn world.
Barcelona's
Barrio Chino
"Barrio Chino" means red-light district, and Barcelona's
is particularly interesting, spilling over onto the Ramblas
as it does.
Cañamo.net
This is the Spanish-only site of a print magazine dedicated
to marijuana ('cañamo' means 'hemp') in all its forms, with
emphasis on growing it. Of special interest to consumers will
be the 'Zoco del Baba,' which brings up a clickable map from
which you can get information about just what is available
where and for how much.
Chiqui
Martí
Barcelona has a tradition of classy sex-related entertainment,
often under the name of cabaret or music-hall. Chiqui Martí
is a Catalonian strip-tease artiste, or if you prefer, artist.
Spanish only, and who cares? Select "book" for the photos.
Declaration
on Sexual Rights
The declaration was made at a congress in Valencia, in 1997,
and is a thoroughly reasonable, sensible statement which only
a diehard religious fundamentalist could possibly disagree
with, and who cares what they think?
Good
House Seeds
Spanish seed bank or mail-order enterprise.
Herbal
Shop
Bongs, pipes, papers and such.
La
Marihuana
Describes itself as "el portal del cánnabis en
español," hence no English-language version.
Marbella-party.com
Identifying itself as an "erotic guide for Marbella and the
Costa del Sol," this site is the shop window for an escort
agency. It provides quite a lot of information on the thriving
Marbella sex industry, as well - accordingly upmarket, it
has sections on night-clubs, 'escorts,' 'couple-clubs' (read
"wife-swapping"). Do not waste your time clicking
'Photos.'
Marijuana
Test
From Renton's Web, dedicated to marijuana. A clue: the consumption
of marijuana is legal in Spain (not Portugal), and the possession
of small amounts for your own use is tolerated. This would
seem another very good reason not to try and bring
it in with you. (Spanish only.)
Museu
de l'Eròtica
This thoroughly admirable Barcelona museum has a great website
(screen resolution of 1024 x 768 recommended). Essentially
orientated towards describing the museum and its rooms, it
has enough online content - news, a gallery, bookstore - to
keep a surfer interested and amused for a good while. Do not
waste your time looking for tits and bums, though, there are
none (unless you count the Indian bas-reliefs and the like).
Nacho
Vidal
Sometimes said to be the "second-best male porn star
in the world," but isn't Rocco Siffredi retiring? The
above link goes to a tame bio page: if you want Nacho's official
weblog, do a Google search - it's far too hardcore to link
to here.
Prostitutes
in the Casa del Campo
There are prostitutes in Madrid's Casa del Campo, as
well as the zoo, amusement park, etc. Almost everything else
in this article is at least inaccurate and often 180º
off - prostitution, for example, is definitely not
illegal in Spain, and long may this remain the case.
Psiconáutica
From cannabis to magic mushrooms. Psychodelica with a sprinkling
of mystic mumbo jumbo, in Spanish only.
Spanish
Men
From a very funny and quite perceptive site called "American
Girls are Easy," this page recommends young ladies travelling
around Europe to "spend all your time in Spain and calling
it a day," on the grounds that the Spanish men they meet
will "be a bit hairy, but... have a great sense of humor
and a zest for life you won't find anywhere else." I
will add that more or less the same applies to Spanish ladies.
