I’m going to be participating in Twittergasm, and you can follow me with an RSS feed reader or sign up for the twitter.com service and receive my updates as text messages on your phone.

If I had planned ahead and stayed on top of the news, I would be participating in Masturbate-a-thon, but I just now learned about the event. If you would like to sponsor me the $75 sign-up fee I can still get in!

$9 at Parkway Speakeasy Theater

I would love to be there, but like all good red blooded Americans, I paid taxes this week. I paid a whole lot more than I expected to pay this year, which totally blew my budget for the month. No extra money for fun events this week, but at least I have fun working!

There are some really great events coming up!

If I had known about it sooner I would be out at Sex 2.0, the intersection of social media, feminism and sexuality. Too bad plane tickets would cost an arm and a leg a week before the event!

I will be at International Ms. Leather this year, volunteering and doing lapdances at the Thursday night Seduction event. I think that N’tali will be there as well, but I haven’t heard definite confirmation of that rumor.

And I am also planning on attending Arse Electronica again this year. Their 2008 theme is, “Do Androids Sleep with Electric Sheep?”

I think vegan visibility in the adult industry is a good thing even though I see sex workers and sex positive people getting all sorts of horrible comments in online vegan communities. I’ve never had anyone say a bad word about vegan porn to my face, but then I also generally don’t associate with people who would wish to say bad things about me to my face. I think that combining veganism and sexuality creates healthier attitudes towards our bodies and the highlights the importance of sexual health and diet in total health.

Dating hater looking for someone who feels the same! W4W

I just plain hate dating. I work in the adult industry, so I seem to have very different ideas about personal interactions and relationships. I seem to be totally clueless about noticing cues to move the relationship past chatting and dinner. Porn, sex and things that are normally taboo and intimate is normal conversation for me. Bringing up the topic of sex toys or safe sex practices do not immediately strike me as, “want to have sex” talk.

I don’t want to talk about my job because it’s mostly pretty boring. It isn’t very glamorous either and I don’t make a ton of money. Just don’t be shocked when I have no qualms about talking about sex and kink and porn in a public space openly and freely. Also you can’t be shocked or upset that I’m intimately involved with other people and I take their money. I watch a ton of porn. If you’re curious or regularly pursue sex workers without being familiar with the sex worker community this probably won’t work. I’m not going to teach you how to be a sex worker or about the adult industry. Hipsters need not apply.

I need a woman that can communicate openly and clearly. She must be able to act assertive when I don’t pick up on the normal cues, and clearly state what she wants or does not want. I really just don’t pick up on normal cues, so don’t mistake my cluelessness for disinterest. Interest in sex-positive events, like erotic open mic nights or erotic film festivals is necessary. Being kinky is a bonus.

I’m tend towards soft-butch, but I also love to play with vintage and retro glamour styles. I have an extensive collection of stockings, girdles and vintage clothes. My makeup collection rivals any drag queen’s. I ride a motorcycle. I enjoy nightclubs, dancing, film, classic sci-fi, art, crafting, all types of music and cooking.

I’m really looking for someone with counterculture ideas who has been in very different non-traditional relationships. I’m not a normal person and I hope you’re not either.

First, there is the satisfying feeling of having hair removed so efficiently. The wax is laid down, the cloth is pressed on, and then zip! I don’t have to think about hair for a few weeks. I had my eyebrows waxed many times and always had that efficient satisfying feeling of getting things done. When I finally had my legs waxed for the first time I discovered the erotic enchantment. I almost slid off the table. The woman asked if I was ok. I was more than ok. Having the hair pulled from such a large area all at once overwhelmed my senses. It is painful, but a special sort of pain.

Honestly I don’t think I used a vibrator until I started doing porn. I was a frequent masturbator and had worked as a stripper when I was this model’s age. I was poor and just masturbated by hand. I was curious about vibrators, but I thought they were too expensive. I wish someone had handed me a vibrator when I was this woman’s age rather than having to wait a few years for a lover to introduce me to sex toys. It was a bullet vibe. It makes me feel good to know that I am empowering women and giving them the opportunity to explore their sexual pleasure through pornography. Sex toys and vibrators may seem strange or extravagant if you’re young and poor, but they really make a difference.

The Cyber-Dyke staff has been reviewing sex toys over at the GirlTools.net blog.

Babeland also has an excellent blog and plenty of toys to tickle your fancy. It may seem like an investment right now, but your sexual pleasure is priceless!
