NP Rank:
Porn channel for women in Netherlands
HILVERSUM, Netherlands —A pornographic channel exclusively for women started shows 24/7 now in Netherlands. Dusk, the Dutch TV channel claims to be the first in Europe providing non-stop pornography and erotica targeted at a female audience.
“We call it porna, to give the idea that it’s porn made for women, something different from traditional porno,” said Martijn Broersma, the man behind the channel.
Though set up three years ago, Dusk now shows 24/7 on three Dutch networks including the Netherlands’ two largest cable providers, making it available to 1.2 million viewers.
“Women really like to see explicit content,” Broersma explained. “They want to have proof that it’s really happening, that it’s not fake.”
“Holland is lucky to have Dusk. There is definitely a market of under-served women [in the United States] who would love to have something like this,” said American erotic filmmaker Jennifer Lyon Bell. A Harvard-educated psychologist, Lyon Bell is now based in Amsterdam. She teaches a course in erotic film at the Dutch Film Academy.
