I do these interviews because I want to talk with other sex workers about our work, and because I think we all have interesting stories. But, after interviewing Matthew and his telling me he was coming out, it occurred to me that I didn’t have to worry about that. I acknowledge that I am very… Continue reading A Conversation With My Mom
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.
The Taxman and the Domina
It’s tax season! That makes me think of a story I found out about a few weeks ago involving a Domina and a silly man with a government job. A tax collector from Secaucus, NJ named Alan Bartolozzi wired (maybe more than) $780,000 in taxpayer money to a Domina with addresses in 5 states. He… Continue reading The Taxman and the Domina
An Interview With A Charming Young Man From Denver
I met the fella from Denver at the Desiree Alliance Conference while sitting by the pool. I was reading a comic I’d gotten from someone and he wanted to know what it was about. Instead of talking to him about it like any other person, I just held it out and showed it to him… Continue reading An Interview With A Charming Young Man From Denver
Oh, To Be a Housewife!
“I wonder what kind of girls do that kind of work, and how they get into it.” Victoria Layton is bored. She’s middle-aged by 1968 standards, she used to have a wildly interesting life. Now she’s in Connecticut and she’s fuckin’ bored. She’s so bored that she spends most of the beginning of The Secret… Continue reading Oh, To Be a Housewife!
A Conversation With Lusty Day
I love it when a plan comes together, don’t you? So, here’s the tea: I went from Dallas, TX, to the Desiree Alliance conference in Las Vegas on a bus last summer. By myself. Twenty-four hours or so of quiet and calm before the storm that Las Vegas always is. I remember sitting somewhere in… Continue reading A Conversation With Lusty Day
