Sex Worker Activists Targeted By Arson Attack →
The fearless New Orleans organization Women With A Vision, a group that’s done considerable work for sex worker rights, suffered an arson attack at the end of last week. Their outreach resources—condoms, educational materials, HIV rapid test kits, and anatomical models to demonstrate self-care—were destroyed. This act was one of domestic terrorism; it’s on par with attacks on abortion clinics, and...

some idiot 21-y-o texted Kat “I want to make you my all-day popsicle!” I just showed her Cord Jefferson’s Twitter avatar after reading that Awl thing about white music stolen by black people (because I was like, “Cord Jefferson’s black?”) and she said “I would be his all-day popsicle.” Oh it’s also funny that I met a guy on assignment for GOOD...

RIP MCA
My first night stripping mostly blurs together, though I see a few distinct moments like clear spots in a fogged mirror: What the DJ said to me, the songs he played for me, that first lapdance, and watching the first stripper who made my jaw drop in awe. She came out on stage in a fishnet bodysuit, black fingerless gloves, and black leather halfsoles like the kind modern dancers wear. Her hair...

Grandaddy was born in 1917 in Mississippi and died, expectedly, today in Texas after a long decline. In between, he paddled a boat between rooftops to pick up neighbors during the Great Flood, worked for Hughes Tool, married two women, and enjoyed a long retirement in South Texas. He had a classic Vicks-bugh accent and was always a sharp dresser. He was never without a harmonica in his coat...

on not science and missing the point
Last week I wrote a post at Tits and Sass about how irritated I get every time someone forwards that UNM study about the relation between a stripper’s income and ovulation. My point was that it wasn’t a very thorough study, didn’t reflect my personal experience, and that I wished there were better, more thorough economic research dealing with sex work. Then a post went up on...

It’s motherfucking Shark Week on these blogs. katstories: There was so much going on that my brain couldn’t take in what I was seeing fast enough. It looked like a Rorschach test. There were dark full labia, so much hair, and something else. Bloody finger prints all over her thighs, shiny and wet. The customer noticed at the exact same time that I finished processing the visual data,...

Have you ever gotten compliments on your selector skills at the strip club, or were patron’s attentions elsewhere?  Working at the strip club was interesting. At first it was great cause I had a group of open-minded girls who actually flipped thru my collection and I found myself playing stuff I liked to hear. Stuff like Sisters of Mercy, Deee-Lite, Al Green, Pixies, The Roots…I even...
