Did everyone else know this? Have I been in the dark? Apparently so because this interview didn’t seem to make waves at all, but when I read it I got legitimately creeped out by this legitimately creepy portrayal of a man who is, apparently, legitimately creepy. It’s not even the beginnings as a “hillbilly” or him losing… Continue reading Y’all, Larry Flynt Is Kind Of Creepy.
Author: Bettie
Hello there,
I'm Bettie. So nice to meet you, and in such welcoming surroundings! This is a bio, so let me tell you some things about me:
*I like old things. Old films, old clothes, old men, almost anything really.
*I am a philosophy student.
*I like to travel. Like. A lot. And by bus!
*I am a sex worker. Specifically, I give spankings. I'm a Pro-Domme.
*I am also a feminist. The mouthy kind. The one who ruins tv and movies for you.
*And a woman of color. As evinced by my snazzy portrait displaying my brownfulness for all the world to see.
There are things about me that are incredibly old world and Southern, like my intense love of barbecue and mint juleps, but I swear I'm a modern lady. Lady here is defined by me, not any dictionary. I like to think of myself as a gypsy, my Mom just thinks I'm unstable, both are applicable. Hey MOM! I have a sincere disdain for class privilege, conspicuous consumption, blatant and covert racism, and people being nasty to each other for no damn reason. I insist on being ladylike at all times; it's my fetish and I won't change it for you, you're not my real dad! Also, I believe very much in side hustles and am an avid shoe wearer.
It's so nice to meet you, darlin'.
With love,
B.
Maria Coletsis’ Behind The Whip
My ears always prick up when people are talking about fetish or bdsm, because that’s my world and it’s where I earn my living. I am generally struck by how much fantasy is injected into the retelling though. No civilian speaks about bdsm the way another does, because their words are almost always informed by… Continue reading Maria Coletsis’ Behind The Whip
Bad Advice From “Ask A Dude”
At The Hairpin they have this thing where they “Ask a Dude” to give advice on matters of all sorts. Most fall along the lines of “Should I leave this relationship?” or “What does it mean when a guy does this?” type of questions. Last week, though, the featured Dude told a girl that turning… Continue reading Bad Advice From “Ask A Dude”
A “Whore” of Many Colors
I just want to know what these people want from us. They argue over which term to use like we are animals, where using the wrong genus actually matters. It is not difficult to figure out. We are sex workers because we use our sexuality to make money, period. All of us: strippers, escorts, dominas,… Continue reading A “Whore” of Many Colors
Motor City Strippers!
When I see a black woman in a filmy something or other, or clutching feathers, or posed elegantly, I have to click whatever it is to see where she came from. That’s what happened when I stumbled onto this story about burlesque dancers in the Motor City on the Metro Timessite. It begins with a… Continue reading Motor City Strippers!
