Why I'm Here

I only really discovered the internet about 2 years ago. My last Sugar Daddy got me a laptop computer for Christmas, and I had no idea what to do with it. So it kinda sat there for a while, untouched, until I got an iPod. Then I went crazy. Once I figured out how to use it for music, I started to finally play around on the internet.

At first I started to look for anything regarding myself . That’s when I first saw a “review” of the Business in one of those adult chat rooms about massage parlors. Let me tell ya, when I first saw my name on that screen I freaked! There it was for the whole world to see – a description of some guys session with me. Thank Gawd he didn’t know my full name or I probably would have had a heart attack.

After I had calmed down a little bit, I realized that he didn’t say anything particularly bad. It was just a quick description of where we were and how much we charged. All he said about me was that I was “cool”, had “fabulous” breasts, and I wasn’t full service.

But this got me thinking… What if he had written something bad? What if he had lied and said we were full-service? What if he were a stalker and started posting all sorts of personal stuff about me and my co-workers? This type of thinking only made me panic all over again. I tried to figure out how I could erase this stuff and realized I couldn’t.

Now Trina and I have always said that one of the most frustrating things about our job is that the only people you can talk to about work are co-workers. Anytime you want to bitch about a customer, or tell a funny story – you can’t. It’s 8 hours of my day that I can’t just share with anyone whenever I feel like it. Shit, even if you’re a rocket scientist you can still bitch about work to a stranger – they may not understand a word of it, but at least you can do it.

We can’t do that unless it’s to each other! Can you imagine what that feels like? So Trina and I used to talk about how great it would be if we could tell some of these wacky stories of ours to anyone without being judged. Then one day when I was swapping stories with a customer, he said I should talk about these in a “blog.” I said what the hell is that, and he said that people write all sorts of shit on the internet and they’re called blogs.

Well, I told my techno-nerd Velma to go get me a “Blog.” Then last December Velma set me up here on this site and told me to go to town. And the rest is history.

At first I didn’t know what to write about, so I just talked about my day. Heck – I only had 2 other people to impress. Then I thought it might be interesting to talk about not just what I do, but how things work in a Business. And then there was Trina to remind me of some of the really whacked customers we’ve had in the past. And lastly, I wanted to remember my time with Cindy back when business was wild and life was crazy.

And that was it. I just started to have a fun time talking about all this stuff (in some cases, for the first time in years). And I liked getting positive comments from people out there who seemed to enjoy it. Then I started reading other peoples blogs, and in some cases some fellow masseuses with similar stories. And let me tell ya, it felt kinda good to be able to throw some stuff out there and get some feedback from people who are not in the Business.

Then I read some stuff that really began to piss me off.

So here I am, just doing my thing when I discover that I’m labeled as a “sex blog.” You mean I’m actually lumped in together with guys who write to Penthouse Forum? Let me tell you something – I find it hard enough to use the term “sex worker” – now I’m just a sex blogger?

Then to make things worse, I read somebody saying that sex blogs are “…all the same…” which really really really hurt my feelings. What the fuck??? At first, I was this sort of society outcast that had to keep half my life secret from the other half. Then when I finally decide to speak up for myself and say “Hey – these things really happened to me” some stupid fuck labels me and says I’m the same as everybody else who “confesses” anything.

Well ya know what? Fuck you. Until you’ve jerked off 30 guys in 1 day, or been thrown against a wall by a 300 pound customer, or had $1,000 taken from your purse by a coworker, or been told by your boss to suck his cock to keep your job, you really aren’t in a position to say I’m the same as anybody else. In fact, you really aren’t in a position to judge anything about me.

Now talking about this is really hard for me since I’ve said before that I don’t like getting personal on this thing. So if no one minds, I’d like to get back to the fun stuff that I like talking about.

Enough said.

Venting is good, fun even. I'm with you though, bring the other fun.

Mr Me said...

I agree. Vent away, if someone doesn't like it, screw them. I enjoy your posts, even if they aren't about work. Keep it up.

The zen and therapy of the freak of the week.

I have a very odd question about that. Has any customer ever payed for a nude massage, then asked you to stand there and stares at you? It seems like something a Captain Haircut or Porn Hound type of thing that you would see.

Greg,

Funny you should mention that. Audrey recently had a guy ask her to do that, except he wanted her to play with herself while standing there. Ironically, she kicked him out. Weird considering everything else she does in the room.

I've never had a guy just ask me to stand there, but I do get guys asking to get a good look before we begin. Believe it or not, I'm actually self conscious when doing an option and I start to feel really weird when I guy just stares. I usually just tell him to roll over and relax when I start to feel uncomfortable.

If it helps, I don't think of you as a sex blog. I'm a 26 year old professional woman, and I read you like I would read something that a girl friend wrote... Its sort of like a girly gossip session, except for I read it.
I find this blog well written, thoughtful, funny and insightful, and its not something I read to get 'turned on'.

Not that you need my validation, but I don't actually read any "sex blogs." In fact, I regularly read very few blogs of any kind, and yours is one.

CJ- I was talking along the lines of you standing there while he *ahem* manually stimulates himself. Like Porn Hound, but you as the porn. Seems like something you'd encounter.

What exactly is a "sex blog". I don't consider OEN a "sex blog". I never considered the kind of stuff you or Slutty writes (or have ever written) a "sex blog". Some things start as one, then the person get's tired of writing about orgasms (or lack thereof) and goes onto something more interesting.

You're definitely not a sex blog. You're a blog about an erotic masseuse who has the exact kinds of work days we all have. The good, the bad, the ugly, the really really really REALLY weird, and the little ups and downs of your day.

In fact, I'd like to see a post about a generic days schedule. Like at so-and-so, you come in, at so-and-so, the first customer usually comes in, at so-and-so, you break for lunch, at so-and-so, you leave work for a minute and go to the bank, and so on and so forth for one either generic day, or a specific day you had. Just a thought (hint hint: please. maybe)

Sucre said...

Very true. Until someone has walked in your shoes, went through your experiences, they have no right to label you.

cj said...

Greg,

Read my real early posts. I talk about an average session, but I guess I could do one on an average day or week.

And yes, I've had guys take care of themselves while I do nothing, or pretend to play with myself. Sometimes I charge extra if I have to do something specific. It's their money! LOL

Don’t worry about what one guy says. Everyone is going to have their opinion and obviously the majority of them are in your corner. Keep writing – your stories are fun and interesting! And if it makes you feel good to tell them, then everyone wins.

It's your blog do what you want. Excellent writing very enjoyable to read anything you write.

Cindy is one of those girls who can really manipulate a guy and get him to do whatever she wants. Oh the stories I could tell..."

What you might not be aware of, CJ, is with sites like SpaHunters and BestGFE, even Utopia Guide, end user clients follow gals like Cindy around and appear where ever she shows up.

If a provider is known to give extras beyond the standard HE [happy ending] the first guy who sees her will post it up on one of these sites and the bell gets rung. Soon those looking for that level of service start showing up. You can always tell these guys because they'll be people you might not have seen before who suddenly appear asking for a specific provider. When that happens you know these guys have site membership to places where this info is being exchanged.
