advice for aspiring call girls. (debauchette)
Posted in sex work on Aug 21st, 2008
So, I’ve been getting mail. Maybe you’ve been inspired by Belle de Jour/Secret Diary of a Call Girl, or maybe it’s the media surrounding the Ashley/Spitzer spectacle, or maybe it’s Radar’s recent “Secrets of a Hipster Hooker.” You want to be an upscale escort.
I’m not going to encourage it and I’m not going to discourage [...]

“…in general, the men of San Francisco make delightful clients”
Posted in sex work on May 22nd, 2008
In this week’s column (”San Francisco escorts: No ordinary johns“) violet blue interviews sex worker Karly Kirschner on San Francisco’s unique market:
They are less obsessed with orgasm than men who, in other parts of the world, cussed at themselves or me if they came too quickly or not at all. Often they are with me [...]
Sex Work 101 was inspired by conversations that happened during the Women, Action and the Media 2008 conference held in Cambridge, MA from March 28-30, 2008.

Crossover in sex work (Dominatrix Next Door)
Posted in domination, sex work, sexbloggers, sexblogs on May 9th, 2007
…A common conceit is that clients can pay me for my time and I can do whatever I like. Ugh! I can assure you of two things, one in line with the stereotype and one in opposition. First, at any given time I would probably rather be reading a book in the park; if someone [...]

BoundnotGagged is a space for these voices to be heard. It is a place for sex workers to respond to the way that they’re portrayed in the media, the way that sexist laws are used to undermine women’s rights and their feelings about the ethical dilemma of exposing [...]
Sex Workers’ Art on Display
Posted in $pread, Events, Fetish & Kink, art, audacia ray, sex work on Apr 30th, 2007
SOHO. On a rainy Sunday afternoon recently, a dozen young women gathered to transform the tools of their sex work trade into works of art. Over cupcakes and strawberries, they swapped stories as they nailed, glue-gunned, painted, pierced, googly-eyed and gashed variously sized toys. Beads scattered to the floor. “We should get some slave to [...]

WASHINGTON (AP) — High-priced call girls always seem to have their little black books. Deborah Jeane Palfrey, accused of running an illegal escort service in the nation’s capital, has 46 pounds of phone records.
And her offer — or threat — to turn them over to the media has some in Washington playing a guessing game [...]
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Amsterdam’s sex workers came to work early on Saturday to offer a free look at the city’s famed red-light district.
