    Will I lose my identity when I retire from sex work? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I was listening to an episode of the podcast Today, Explained recently, about the politics of gen Z. Gen Z is only one generation below mine—and technically my partner belongs to it—but I still find gen Z attitudes cryptic and opaque. On the podcast, one guest spoke about how North Americans have “traditionally found fulfillment… and purpose through work” and with the arrival of AI there is a “generation who is on the brink of adulthood, who doesn’t really know what their place in the world or c

    Sex life: Am I in my prime? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I recently watched The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, a 1969 Scottish film that shows Maggie Smith at her best. The story, based on Muriel Spark’s novel, is almost an inverse of Dead Poets Society (1989), in that the teacher—instead of encouraging the students to open their minds, follow their passions and think for themselves—leads them astray into supporting fascism, due to her own political leanings. The protagonist is a spinster but one who is immune to being shamed for holding that position in

    Sex life: Working in parlours taught me how to handle rejection (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I’ve always been bold—unafraid to approach someone and ask a question, and, more importantly, unafraid of the response I might receive. Sex work inevitably involves a lot of rejection, especially when you work in-house. You have to be prepared to approach many men in a day— busier parlours I worked at might have over 100 “intros” a shift—and be passed over by the majority of them. I often think of the Dita Von Teese quote, “you might be the ripest, juiciest peach in the world and there’s still g

    Sex life: I believe that roleplay can be healing (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I’ve written before about why I enjoy roleplay bookings with my clients: about the escapism and absurdism I appreciate, and the variety they offer compared to my usual bookings. I also think roleplay has healing potential, as it offers the opportunity to act out or rewrite past events in life, from sexual trauma to taboo attraction. Sometimes clients ask me for roleplays that might seem morally wrong to other people, especially when they don’t have the full context. For example, people are distu

    Sex life: I refuse to read punters’ reviews of my work (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Both my lines of work expose me to being reviewed. My writing is reviewed by readers and amateur critics on places like Goodreads, and by professionals in newspapers. I am also reviewed by clients in my capacity as a sex worker, in online forums such as the notorious Punter Planet. I steadfastly refuse to read any of them, after making the mistake of reading both my escort and book reviews in lockdown in 2021. Unlike creative friends of mine who constantly find themselves tempted and curious, I
