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 an atheist who has been a full time pornographer and sex worker for almost 10 years. I'm also a former "sex-positive feminist" who tired of trying to shoehorn my life into a useless ideology like a pair of ill-fitting high heels. I oppose the feminist doctrine that women are inherently feeble victims, brainwashed by "the patriarchy," and in need of someone to protect and guide us. I operate SWAAY.org, the only American sex workers' rights project aimed solely at public outreach and education. My politics are extremely socially permissive, but mixed on fiscal matters, and I don't identify with any one political party or label. My philosophy is informed primarily by Patrick Swayze 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.

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.
