Comments on: Finding someone you know naked on the internet: a tale of two emailers http://www.feminisnt.com/2009/finding-someone-you-know-naked-on-the-internet-a-tale-of-two-emailers/ I'm a pornographer, sex worker, atheist, and former "sex-positive feminist" who grew tired of trying to shoehorn my reality into a useless feminist analysis. I blog my observations as a politically-minded smut peddler, ethical slut, and staunch skeptic. I despise people who project their insecurities onto others, or force sex workers into only two roles: helpless victims and evil patriarchy-colluders. If I ever found a nonprofit, it will be called Start Porn Culture and I will go under the alias Gail Vagines. My activist philosophy is informed primarily by Patrick Swayze's character in Roadhouse: "I want you to be nice until it's time to not be nice."

And if it couldn't be bad enough just by the message content itself, it's made worse by the fact that the incorrect spelling of his own name is at the header, and not the footer, of the message. Wow. Jeez.

Wow.

Um, no, dude. Royce: Yeah, it was definitely a shocker to have a grade school bully assume I'd fuck him since he found out I make porn. Um, no, dude.

I used to tell co-workers and acquaintances about being in the porno I was in without even thinking about it, and they always freaked out like it was some big deal. Usually the assumption was that I was a sex addicted pervert or something. If I respond differently to sex workers than I do others, it's in a positive light, much in the way I feel about artists and outsiders. I don't assume we're similar at all, but I feel a vague aesthetic kinship at least. And also, bullies fucking suck. I still get pissed of about some of the shit that happened to me in school.

I'm on the verge of getting my LMT, and people always seem to think I'm just dying to get my hands on them and give them a free massage. My cousin is an electrician, and people are always asking him to do work for free. Another cousin is a hair dresser, and people always want free haircuts. Hell, we all get this from family (though that's its own can of worms and angst). But we all worked hard to learn our skills, practice what we learned and be damn good at it - much like you and your website. The assumption that any of us would want to give away to some jackass what we worked hard to learn/make/do is insulting and irritating, no matter what the business.
