Skills? Who needs ‘em?

October 27th, 2008 by Celeste

What the fucking bullshit.

So the guy inquires at my website, which states clearly what the rules of engagement are – that we have a phone consult and that we meet in person for a conversation, at a clearly specified dollar amount, and so on.

Wants to know, via email, whether I will do such and such. Well, not exactly. Has many complex fantasies, some strange. Doesn’t say what they are, so… Continue reading

Healing men, and men who heal

July 7th, 2008 by Celeste

A friend calls today. She has a friend, a man, who thinks he might be interested in doing this work. That is, in working. However, he has never received the work.

Oops! That will never fly!

Another colleague a few weeks ago, also a man, told me that he feels his healing gift is with women.

That was in response to my question to him - You don’t work on men? No, he… Continue reading

Desert Rain

May 28th, 2008 by Celeste

I’m in country-music country this week, and here is one of the verses – he’s talking about his woman, and her changes of mood –

Just like springtime in Alberta
Sunny days, endless skies of blue
Then without a warning
A winter storm comes ragin’ through

That’s me today. The storm has come rolling through and I am in tears all day.

Will someone please remind me why this work is important? What it has to… Continue reading

Book store surrender

May 8th, 2008 by Celeste

I stopped by a book store yesterday, and wandered perilously close to the sex section. It was huge – huge! Actually it probably wasn’t all that big, compared to say, the computer section. Heck, it might not even have been as big as the gardening section, but I don’t know, because that’s as far as I got. I mean, how can you walk right by the sex section?

Maybe it was… Continue reading

The poet is back

April 10th, 2008 by Celeste

The poet is back. Haven’t seen him for awhile. He got here 2 hours early, having mistaken the time, but fortunately I was here and it worked. I was not ready though, and put him to work vacuuming. Told him I’d like to see him in a French maid’s outfit, but he said he would need a couple more years of me before he was ready for that. But he… Continue reading

Interview #3 - acceptance, training, legality

March 20th, 2008 by Celeste

(See Feb. 7 and Dec. 19)

Before I pose the last few questions, just in answer to your point about STI’s in the sex work population, yes, absolutely, the notion that sex workers are high risk is unsupported. The only exceptions tend to be where, mainly in street work populations, drugs are administered intravenously, and of course where drugs are injected there is the possibility of transmission via that… Continue reading

Interview 2 - self esteem, buying sex, and selling out

February 7th, 2008 by Celeste

Another installment of the interview (see Interview, Dec 19)

J__ <@> wrote:

I wonder if I could, at this point, put a couple of typical feminist points to you to see how you would respond to such arguments.

For example, given what you say about the (perhaps timid/reticent?) character of at least some of your clients, how would you respond to the (typically radical feminist) argument that men buy sex from women because… Continue reading

Interview - a valuable social function, and why women don’t buy sex

December 19th, 2007 by Celeste

I’ve been giving an interview over email, to a person doing academic research on sex work. Here is an excerpt.

J__ <@> wrote:

I wanted to ask next about your experience of the demand side of the work. For example, do you have any clients with any physical or learning disabilities at all? And if you do, do you feel in this way that your work offers a valuable social function by… Continue reading

Healing Sex DVD

December 12th, 2007 by Celeste

I just saw one of the best healing and learning videos I’ve ever seen. It’s ‘Healing Sex: the complete guide to sexual wholeness’ by Staci Haines.

Though why people ever say ‘the complete guide’ is beyond me. Nothing is that complete. I guess buyers want to think that it is.

But – this video, though not complete, is awesome. It’s actually for people who have experienced sexual trauma, and their partners. Sexual… Continue reading
