Jincey Lumpkin, Esq. (born Virginia Marie Lumpkin, December 17, 1979) is a pornographic producer, and sex columnist for the Huffington Post.[1] A lesbian,[2] she was named one of the 100 most influential gay people by Out Magazine in 2010.[3]
Lumpkin is the founder and Chief Sexy Officer of the lesbian adult entertainment brand Juicy Pink Box.[4][5] She has been called the "lesbian Hugh Hefner".[1]
Early life
Lumpkin grew up in Carrollton, Georgia[6] and graduated in 1998 from the Darlington School in Rome, Georgia.[7] She attended Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, graduating in 2002.[8] She then attended the Florida Coastal School of Law in Jacksonville, Florida, from which she received her law degree in 2006.[9]
Careers
After completing law school, Lumpkin moved to New York to practice fashion law.[10] Since she was unhappy in the office, Lumpkin's male co-workers suggested that she begin writing an anonymous sex blog, which became popular enough to lead her to consider switching careers.[11] In 2008, she left the practice of law to begin producing adult movies.[12]
The following year, Lumpkin founded Juicy Pink Box, a pornographic studio specializing in lesbian erotica.[13] As of March 2013, the company had released five films and had received several nominations for the Adult Video News Awards and the Feminist Porn Awards. The films "Taxi"[14] and "Boutique"[15] won Feminist Porn Awards for "hottest lesbian vignette" in 2011 and 2012, respectively.
Feminist and LGBT activism
Lumpkin is considered to be part of the feminist pornography movement,[16] which "seeks to take back the landscape of sexually explicit media, offering a more positive and inclusive way of depicting, and looking at, sex".[17] She has publicly stated that she regards herself as a "sex-positive" feminist[18] and has been quoted as saying, "I want women to be able to stand up and say, 'I like sex', and not be slandered for it."[19]
Lumpkin has written extensively about her struggles with her sexual orientation.[20] In 2010, she wrote an article for The Advocate in which she discussed her battle with suicide after coming out of the closet.[21]
In October 2011, Lumpkin began writing a weekly sex column for the Gay Voices section of the Huffington Post.[22] Lumpkin is also a regular panelist on Huffington Post Live, appearing in segments to discuss Hollywood's obsession with porn[23] and taxes on strip clubs.[24]
Lumpkin frequently lectures on themes connected with sexuality. She is a proponent of open and honest discussion of and education about masturbation.[25] In April 2012, she spoke at Harvard University about sexual consent and sex-positive porn.[26] More recently, Lumpkin has become interested in sex robots and their possible use in combatting sex trafficking. She gave a TEDx talk titled "Are Robots the Future of Sex?" in December 2012[27] and has twice spoken on Huffington Post Live about the topic.[28]
Personal life
Lumpkin and her two chihuahuas, Marilyn Monroe and Sophia Loren, live in New York City.[29]
