Following unprecedented involvement during the International Whores' Day actions on June 1st and 2nd in cities across the nation, a summit of sex workers, survivors, and advocates from across the country convened in Los Angeles on June 22nd and 23rd to discuss next steps for the sex worker rights movement in the United States. They emerged at the end of the weekend having produced a concise four point document titled the National Sex Worker Anti-Criminalization Principles.

Sex Worker National Anti-Criminalization Principles

Antonia Crane

Siouxsie Q sits down with fellow organizers of the #LetUsSurvive March in LA earlier this month to talk to labor organizing with two cherished Lusty Lady Alums: WhoreCast favorite Prince$$ Pandora, and amazing writer, stripper, and professor Antonia Crane.

#LetUsSurvive March Wrap-Up With Antonia Crane And Princess Pandora

Before you launch into a great interview with podcaster, comedian, and confirmed"Boss Bitch Of History", Sovereign Syre, please take a moment to heed Siouxsie's call to action on the upcoming senate vote on SESTA.  The 'Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act' (SESTA) is the latest poorly constructed piece of legislation that purports to help victims of trafficking but will only increase harm to sex workers and trafficking victims alike.  Siouxsie has some more background and ways to get involved in stopping this bill. After you call your senators then you can dive into a very fun conversation between Siouxsie and Sovereign that covers the #MeToo movement and the parallels/ differences between Hollywood and Adult Industry.

Check out some of Sovereign's amazing work, including her web show with Ela Darling "Boss Bitches Of History, by following her on Twitter @SovereignSyre

Siouxsie headed east last week to check back in on Whorecast favorite Representative Elizabeth Edwards and her efforts to pass House Bill  287,  which would establish a legislative committee to study changing prostitution laws in New Hampshire. This time Rep. Edwards and Siouxsie are joined by local Sex Workers Outreach Project activist Leslee Ann Petersen.  These three extremely Boss B's discuss the challenges of advancing sex worker's rights via the mainstream political process, the objectives and intentions behind HB 287, and touch on a heartwarming moment during their week fighting for sex worker's rights in the state capital.

Lydia Dupra

Like most of us, Lydia Dupra has been called a lot of things in her journey as a sex worker, but now that she has retired from the front lines, she is known mostly as The Heaux Mentor. One year ago today she published her first e-book, The Complete Guide to Escorting (Getting Started) and made it available free online to sex workers everywhere. Since then she has launched a fistfull of platforms that cater to nearly every corner of the sex industry--from survival sex workers who are vulnerable to traffickers, to porn stars and cam girls, Lydia aims to create resources and products that help all sex workers survive and thrive.

We have a real pre-Folsom treat this week with a conversation between Nina Hartley and Siouxsie Q at the Center For Sex And Culture (CSC) earlier this September. They talk everything from theories about the role of religion in the backgrounds of kinky people to Nina's days working in peep shows before they cleaned up Times Square. Folsom weekend is a great time to learn at the feet of one of the fairy godmothers of perversion and Nina definitely delivers.   The interview was part of an Expo put on by the CSC to help raise funds to keep the amazing community center/library/performance space open. Please consider donating to the Center For Sex And Culture at  http://www.sexandculture.org/

The Legendary Nina Hartley

Her book is a BDSM love story that chronicles Madison's partnership with Kink.com director James Mogul through their trials of navigating a relationship while the cameras are rolling inside the giant porn castle that is The San Francisco Armory. Forget 50 Shades of Grey, this is a real life account of a young submissive's epic quest to find heroism.  So sit back, relax, and loosen your grey necktie, this is the real deal.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


“Kink is about exploring the uncontrollable in a controlled way. It’s about feeling unsafe in a situation that is actually safe. That’s the art of it.” Erotic humiliation can be about so many different abstract things, and Princess Kali is here to break it down! This retired dominatrix, producer of Kink Academy, and author of Enough to Make You Blush explains how diminishing someone’s ego can be one of the hottest kinds of BDSM. Whether it’s objectification, financial domination, gender play, domestic service, or exposure, kinky humiliation is an intense form of power exchange that keeps on giving!


Princess Kali has spent over fourteen years exploring not only the how but the why of alternative lifestyles. Her experience working as a professional dominatrix has given her a unique understanding of the motivations behind erotic humiliation play as well as a passion for helping people participate in it more safely and enjoyably. Her engaging style of presenting has been welcomed at more than 150 venues including kink events such as Dark Odyssey, Kink in the Caribbean, and IMsL as well as mainstream venues such as Harvard and SXSW.
