Dame Debuts Limited-Edition ‘Toy Stories’ Book

Dame Debuts Limited-Edition 'Toy Stories' Book

LOS ANGELES — Sexual wellness brand Dame has partnered with 11 erotica authors for a limited-edition book, titled “Toy Stories.”

The anthology features erotic and humorous stories that double as product reviews; its contributing writers include Cathryn Fox, Kayleigh Malcolm, Nikki Sloane, Willow Winters, Zoe York, Alexandria House, Cecilia Tan, J.C. Hannigan, Marie Gray, Christopher Sexton, and Iman Hariri-Kia. In addition to the limited-edition print version, the book is available online on Dame’s website.

“Dame was partially built on the pleasure gap amongst women, which is why we love to drive home that we are made by women, for women,” said Dame CEO Alexandra Fine. “By partnering with these sensual and erotic writers, we’re engaging our community and smut readers through a format they already are familiar with and love. We hope ‘Toy Stories’ inspires people, especially women, to feel more comfortable discussing sex and sexuality openly and shedding shame around pleasure. At the very least, we’re giving people a vivid, graphic, and sensual understanding of how our toys can help transform their fantasies into reality.”

Added Tan, “I can truthfully say this was one of the most pleasurable writing experiences I’ve ever had. They really encouraged me to be creative, and the toys really inspired my fantasies. It’s not every day that you get asked to explore your own intimacy and share all the candid details so beautifully. Sharing my experience to help others access their joy is my mission, and Dame is perfect for that — you might even say ‘a perfect fit.’”

Alabama Notifying Adult Sites of New Tax Set to Take Effect Sept. 1

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — The Alabama Department of Revenue has begun sending notices to adult site operators about a new 10% tax on their revenues, set to be enforced starting Sept. 1.

In April 2024, Alabama enacted HB 164. The bill’s age verification requirements took effect in October 2024, prompting some adult sites to block access in the state.

The law also imposes a 10% tax on adult websites’ gross receipts. With that provision set to take effect Sept. 1, the Department of Revenue has begun contacting adult site operators.

One such notice, which XBIZ has seen, includes the following information:

In accordance with Act 2024-97, effective September 1, 2025, there is a tax of 10 percent levied on the gross receipts of any commercial entity operating an adult website. The tax is due on the gross receipts of all sales, distributions, memberships, subscriptions, performances and all other content amounting to material harmful to minors that is produced, sold, filmed, generated, or otherwise based in this state.

The entity should register for a Material Harmful to Minors (MHM) tax account through My Alabama Taxes. The tax on these gross receipts will be reported and remitted in the same manner as the sales and use taxes beginning with the September 2025 filing period due in October 2025.

Registration will be available beginning Sept. 1.

A media representative for the Alabama Department of Revenue told XBIZ that the department has notified eleven entities thus far, identifying site operators as potentially subject to the tax through “internal research.”

“We’re continuing our efforts to identify others,” the rep said.

Industry attorney Lawrence Walters called the law another example of the increasingly hostile legal climate facing adult website operators at the state level, and noted that enforcing the tax on adult website content could prompt legal challenges.

“This may constitute an unconstitutional content-based burden on speech,” Walters told XBIZ. “Any governmental effort to target a specific category of protected speech for special tax treatment will be highly scrutinized by the courts.

“However, at present, no court order prohibits enforcement of the tax obligations,” he added. “Website operators with any connection to Alabama should consult with their tax advisors to evaluate how this law impacts their business and develop a plan of action.”

The adult site that shared the notice told XBIZ that it had received the letter despite the fact that it has been blocking access in Alabama since October.

Ofcom Investigates 4 More Adult Companies for OSA Compliance

Ofcom Investigates 4 More Adult Companies for OSA Compliance

LONDON — U.K. media regulator Ofcom has launched investigations into whether four companies operating adult websites have implemented requisite age assurance measures under the Online Safety Act, the agency announced Thursday.

Under the OSA, sites that publish pornography must have “highly effective” age checks in place to prevent minors from accessing adult content.

A statement posted on Ofcom’s website reads: “We have opened formal investigations into whether the following providers have highly effective age checks in place to protect children from encountering pornography across 34 websites: 8579 LLC, AVS Group Ltd, Kick Online Entertainment S.A., and Trendio Ltd. These companies have been prioritized based on the risk of harm posed by the services they operate and their user numbers.”

Ofcom is investigating the four companies in relation to the following sites.

  • 8579 LLC: 4kporn.xxx, crazyporn.xxx, love4porn.com and hoes.tube.
  • AVS Group: pornzog.com, txxx.com, txxx.tube, upornia.com, hdzog.com, hdzog.tube, thegay.com, thegay.tube, ooxxx.com, hotmovs.com, hclips.com, vjav.com, pornl.com, voyeurhit.com, manysex.com, tubepornclassic.com, shemalez.com and shemalez.tube.
  • Kick Online Entertainment: motherless.com.
  • Trendio: theyarehuge.com, tranny.one, ah-me.com, ashemale.one, bdsm.one, bemyhole.com, gaygo.tv, gayxo.com, shemale.pub, sunporno.com and yesvids.com.

In recent months, XBIZ has reported on other Ofcom investigations into OSA compliance, including one targeting Itai Tech Ltd. and Score Internet Group LLC, and another focused on First Time Videos.

The agency also previously investigated Kick Online Entertainment in relation to issues other than age verification — specifically, alleged failures to conduct a requisite risk assessment and to respond to requests for information.

Ofcom will next gather and analyze evidence “to determine whether any contraventions have occurred,” Thursday’s statement notes. If the agency’s assessment indicates compliance failures, it will issue “provisional notices of contravention” to providers, who can then respond before Ofcom makes a final determination.

The agency’s enforcement powers include imposing fines of up to 18 million pounds or 10% of qualifying worldwide revenue, seeking a court order requiring payment providers or advertisers to withdraw their services from a platform, or even requiring ISPs to block access to a site in the U.K.
