Scripture is Poetry


The Thunder-Perfect Intellect is a book of the Gnostic Scriptures written  in Coptic from . It was copied in 350 C.E. and can be seen live and in person in Cairo. It is written in the voice of a divine female. It is a series of Exhortations and Identity Riddles. You may have seen some recited in a few very small movies, a Foucault introduction, or in something Toni Morrison wrote. Here are the bits I like.

Identity 1: 15-27

For, it is I who am the first: and the last.
It is I who am the revered: and the despised.
It is I who am the harlot: and the holy.
It is I who am the wife: and the virgin
It is I who am the mother: and the daughter
I am the members of my mother.
It is I who am the barren: and who has many children.
It is I who am the one whose marriage is magnificent: and who have not been married.
It is I who am the midwife: and she who does not give birth;
It is I who am consolation: of my own travail.
It is I who am the bride: and the bridegroom.

Exhortations 2: 15-24

Why, O you who hate me, do you love me,
And hate those who love me?
Declare me publicly, O you who deny me:
And deny me, O you who declare me publicly.
Tell lies of me, O you who speak truth of me:
And speak the truth about me, O you who have told lies of me.
Become unacquainted with me, O you who recognize me:
And may those who have not recognized me become acquainted with me!

Identity 2: 26-31

For, it is I who am acquaintance: and lack of acquaintance.
It is I who am reticence: and frankness.
I am shameless: I am ashamed.
I am strong: and I am afraid.
It is I who am war: and peace.

Identity 3: 9-35

It is I who have been hated everywhere:
And who have been loved everywhere.
It is I who am called life:
And whom you have called death.
It is I who am called law:
And whom you have called lawlessness.
It is I whom you have chased:
And it is I whom you have restrained.
It is I who am what you have scattered:
And what you have collected.
It is I before whom you have felt shame:
And with whom you have been shameless.
It is I who do not celebrate festivals:
And it is I whose festivals are numerous.
As for me, I am godless:
And it is I whose god is manifold.
It is I on whom you have thought:
And you have despised me.
I am uneducated:
And people learn from me.

It is I who am the one you have scorned:
And about whom you think.
It is I from whom you have hidden:
And to whom you are manifest.
Yet whenever you hide yourselves,
I, too, shall show myself forth:

Exhortations 4: 3-17

As for those who have [...] from [...] foolishly [...],
Remove me from their understanding out of pain:
And accept unto yourselves out of understanding and pain
And accept me unto yourselves out of disgraceful places and oppression,
And catch me up from good things:
Though in disgrace out of shame, accept me unto yourselves without shame:
And out of shamelessness and shame put my members to shame within you.

Identity 4: 15-16

As for me, I am free of sin:
And the root of sin derives from me.

Exhortations 5: 25-26

Hear me softly:
And learn from me harshly.

Get rid of your Anal Eaze

This stuff sucks

No. No. No. No. No!

AnalEaze and other numbing agents have no place in your sex life. That is one of the most definitive things you will ever hear me say about what your sex life should look like. I don’t care what you’re doing or who you’re doing it with, AnalEaze has no place in the matter. Here’s a product description:

Famous for making anal sex easy and comfortable, Cherry Flavored AnalEaze is a must-have for pleasurable anal play. A special formulation desensitizes just enough for easy penetration, while allowing for ultimate enjoyment. This Anal lube has a pleasant Cherry scent and flavor kick up excitement even more, for thrilling anal adventures! Contains a mild anesthetic (benzocaine) that enhances comfort during penetration.

So let’s break down what AnalEaze is into an easy to make at home recipe. First take a really crappy lube that contains glycerin. You can tell if you put it in between your fingers and rub vigorously. Do you see a little bit of foam? That’s the glycerin. It’s notorious for causing irritation or yeast infections. Now mix in some Oragel, because that’s another place where benzocaine is used. There’s your numbing agent. Now if you want that tasty cherry flavor we all love, dump in some cough syrup as well. That’s AnalEaze. Does it still sound appealing?

If you need to use AnalEaze, you’re doing Teh Buttseks all wrong. Anal sex should not require a numbing agent to drown out the pain. The anal sphincter is a muscle. Before any type of vigorous muscle activity you should do a warm up. A sure fire way for any athlete to welcome an injury is to jump in without some stretches and a warm up prior to the main event. Teh buttseks is no exception, my budding young anal athletes. You can’t go from zero to penis in 15 seconds painlessly.

“Sexting” leads to felony charges for children

(Blog post inspired by this article, one is a string of many, about ’sexting’ teens)

Teen sex sensationalism is popular in the media. Sometimes it is the stuff of urban legend (Take for example “rainbow parties” where teen girls each wear a different color lipstick and all give blowjob to the boys in order to leave different colored rings on the cock. This never happened. If you don’t believe me, get a bunch of lipstick and try doing it on your fingers) and sometimes it was one things blown out of proportion. Teens are having cyber sex! They’re doing it on the computer and on the phone! They’re sending dirty pictures to one another! Keep reading →

The Training of O

I’ve watched a lot of porn over the years. Sometimes as a review, sometimes for fun, and once even at a major conference in San Diego for the intent of analysis and debate over racial issues in queer porn. I think it’s a fascinating thing to study and I wish to present an analysis of Kink.Com’s “The Training of O” as the most intellectual porn being produced right now.

Sketched


I was recently sketched by Naked Comix at Not Too Naughty in Livermore, CA.

Being an art model is different than photo modeling. For a picture you can feel free to move and create new and different expressions. Art modeling means remaining still and composed. At first it’s only two minutes at a time, then five, then ten, and then twenty minutes of remaining completely still.

It’s similar to D/s (Dominance and submission) or perhaps similar to tasks I have completed in a D/s situation. In a twenty minute pose you can feel your muscles start to quiver and twitch. Your mind raises with a million ideas all of which can be involuntarily expressed on your face, but you can’t let that happen. How can the artist make you a thing of beauty if you do not remain still?

The staff of the shop were fantastic and downtown Livermore is gorgeous. I’ve always thought of it as a place of science (nuclear science) rather than a place of wineries and quaint storefronts but you learn something new everyday.

Here are the results!

The Upper Floor

Kink.Com has been working on its new project called The Upper Floor and I’ve been happy to not only watch its evolution but also to take part in it. It’s a fascinating nexus of porn and lifestyle players, fantasy and reality, but mostly a whole lot of fun.What makes it unique is the fact that you get the best of the action when you watch it live. Whether you want to tune in to a slave workout or a full on party, you’re going to get an interesting mix of people, places, and things. I’m interested to see what happens as it develops.

New Year's Eve at the Upper Floor

Nerine Mechanique, Maestro Stefanos, Devi Lynne, and myself

When I make an appearance at the Upper Floor, I’m usually bartending far away in the back where only the guests can see me. I’ve also been in attendance as a guest myself getting into mischief and mayhem. One time I was even responsible for using a whiffle bat to test out the sexual abilities of a slave petitioning the House. For the New Year’s Eve party, I thought I might bring along a personal partner of mine to join in on the fun.

So this particular partner already gets the ego trip of absolutely desimating my sense of time, space, and identity after sex. I thought I would invite him along with my to take part in the fascinating evening that is an Upper Floor party. It was, in a sense, like taking the person you’re seeing to a work party. It just so happens that this kind of work party is WAY BETTER than any other work party. The conversation will not go like this:

“Hey sweetie, we’ve been seeing each other awhile and I would really like you to meet some of my colleagues at work.”

“Oh God, this isn’t some kind of company holiday party you’re trying to drag me to, is it?”

“Well, yes, it is a holiday party. Don’t worry, there won’t be a raffle or anything like that. We have other ways to have fun!”

“Oh? Like what? Don’t even say karaoke.”

“Well, you see it’s this 24/7  Edwardian themed sex society governed by the laws of sexual hierarchy. There will probably be riggers putting naked people into rope suspension, slaves attending to their dominants in a way that is deemed most pleasurable, lots of sex on the furniture, probably some beatings and whippings, lots of hot porn stars, local lifestyle folks, a chance to talk with all of the people on the internet watching. There is usually some good food around too.”

“Well, I guess if they’re serving food…”

My partner agreed pretty quickly that it would be a fun night for the two of us and we immediately began talking about the sexin’ that was to commence. Although I was excited and interested by the idea, I wasn’t too sure it would happen. Sex on camera for men is difficult. There is a reason why you see tons and tons of female talent while we stick to a pretty consistent yet small pool of male talent. Viagra has changed this a bit, but it’s hard to get an erection on camera and harder (ha ha) still to actually have a climax when it counts. I don’t want to sound like I’m discrediting the abilities of my partner, I just wanted to be realistic about the fact that we might just be watching other people for the evening.

It turns out, he did just fine. Not only was he able to manage the rigors of on-camera sex, we were able to offer something else that many people miss in porn which is really strong chemistry. Not every porn viewer cares about this but the Kink.Com audience is pretty spectacular. Although you may not always be able to put your finger on it, you can tell when two people really enjoy working with one another. Chemistry can completely transcend looks and experience in a scene. It’s always sexy to watch two attractive people boning, but if they look a little bored staring out into that middle distance it lacks something. Watching two people who literally cannot keep their hands off one another is hot. I love watching it and I seek out scenes where I can see it happen. I’m very lucky in that I’ve always gotten to work with people I like, but I hadn’t ever brought in that special someone in my life.

I guess I’m not the only one who likes to watch this kind of scene. Our New Year’s Eve performance was noticed by the members who offered such compliments as:

  • A surprise sensation was Maggie Mayhem’s love, Ned, who made his public fucking debut tonight. He is not a pornstar. He fucked on camera not only for the first time, but the second also. Girls flooded their panties for him as well and filled the chat with babbled praise and requests to see his cock ‘one last time’. It is important to note that the male members took a shine to him also. He’s a good sport, old Ned. He was very pleased with the good reviews he got of his fucking. We pressed him. Neddy vowed several times that he would be doing a Kink.com shoot if he is hired. Tomorrow morning the members wish he should be reminded of this promise. You can’t turn back now. You silly twisted boy.
  • Maggie and Ned caught our attention in the back of the camera shot and Devi helped us get a better view. Nothing is better than watching two people who are simply ‘performing’ because they can’t get enough of each other. It was like being a fly on the wall in their real lives and a privilege to get to see. To watch Ned, a ‘non-porn’ player get involved for the first time was amazing and boy did he give it his all. AND we got to see it not once but as if through special request for an encore as they became our grand finale.
  • Maggie continued to be great on her own merits and also brought the date of the evening.  For me, the most entertaining and original aspects continue to come from real life couples like Maggie and Ned…

(Taken from here at the FREE Kink.Com forums)

Then after our second appearance another thread appeared:

This is a formal petition of the members of the Upper Floor, and anyone else for that matter, to draw Ned to the attention of the management of Kink.com. We members adore Ned. The women like his body. The men like his roguish charm. Everyone likes seeing him and Maggie Mayhem making the beast with two backs. His spunk makes an excellent adornment on a woman’s face. He is urbane, yet forceful. Thoroughly perverse, yet charming. Boyish, yet masterful. He is a divine demon. He went to Harvard, but we won’t hold that against him. It just means he knows the grammatically correct fashion in which to call a woman a dirty whore. We members have on two occasions stated how ardently we would enjoy seeing him in an official shoot, in whatever capacity, on any of the sites at Kink.com, as well as his delightful appearances at parties on the Upper Floor. He has expressed interest, but states he needs a firm display of support. This I am glad to do on behalf of the Neddie-factor. I am sure many others will follow.

We respectfully request the wise and omnipotent management at Kink.com take Ned into their consideration. He could not possibly disappoint.

We both appreciated these kinds words. My partner certainly had a new skip in his step after having read all of this and I was delighted as well. While he may have difficulty entering rooms due to the size of his ego I’m really happy to be able to share all of this with you. I’m not in porn as a real career move. I do it because I’m an exhibitionist who wants to change the face of porn as much as I can. I want to represent different body types and different sexualities. Not all of porn is something I agree with or stand by, but you can only truly change a system from within.

You can watch our show and catch us in the amazing trailer HERE.

Things I loved: 2009

2009 was a year of incredible people, places, and events for me and the boat was thoroughly shaken. Here are some that stood out for me as awesome. In no particular order:

  • Kink.Com has been one place that feels more and more like home for me every time I visit. Working for their sites means being well cared for by intelligent people who are all passionate about sexuality. Not once did my request for a condom get snubbed or looked down upon, not once did my need for a break result in a sneer, and there was always a friendly production assistant ready with a fuzzy robe and a hug. When you get your porn from Kink.Com you’re getting it from good people who treat their models with respect. I was very happy to work with them throughout 2009 and I look forward to many more years and shoots there.
  • My stovetop espresso maker! I’m a coffee nut and drip coffee doesn’t always pack the punch I need to manage a 40+ hour work week at my day job, a weekly shift at SFSI, late nights writing, time with friends, the occasional modeling job, and laser pointer time with the kitties.
  • Along the same vein, Wicked Grounds was a great place to rub elbows with fellow kinksters and enjoy more good coffee and quality foods.
  • NJoy Butt plugs! I’m a sex toy snob and these are so fantastic I can’t speak highly enough of them. Their designs are delectable, they’re smooth, I can wear them for long periods of time, easy to clean and sterilize, and gorgeous to look at. I’m buying stock in these puppies. Every year there is a newly hyped toy and only a few will live on for years to come. When I have a Hitachi on my clit and an NJoy toy in my ass I am a happy girl. Add coffee to the mix and I’m set for the night.
  • Lots of great bloggers! Although I’m not always the best at updating, I love reading the adventures of my fellow travelers on the internet. The sex positive blogosphere has blossomed with sex workers, advocates, and amazing members of people who prove time and time again that the biggest sex organ is the brain. Thanks to Mistress Matisse, May Ling Su, Shazam SF, Sex in the Public Square, and too many others to mention. I would also like to specially mention that it was great to see voices organize to tell the porn model side of the story in the great Matt Smith debacle and the now infamous internet take down of Alexa DiCarlo whose blog is now defunct.
  • So many great friends and partners who supported me when I was down, made me laugh, and helped me stand tall as the woman I am. Some of them you might see out at events, others are on camera, many you will never see hide nor hair of but they make their loving presence known in the fact I keep coming back for me. To every single one of you, thank you for being in my life.
  • The continuing rise in voices from sex workers. There is a renaissance happening all around you. One of the major figures in porn is Sasha Grey who fucks on camera and can quote Nietzche. Strippers spin sonnets, massage parlor girls tweet in between full body releases, and the way people view us as sex workers is going to change dramatically in the coming years. Everyone has been exposed to porn. With the rise in technology, more people do web cam shows on their own as amateurs. Sex work is being reconsidered by the mainstream much in the way that tattoos have. When a growing percentage of your generation participates in something it starts to shed its stigma and taboo. In ten years it is going to be much less of a issue that I participated in the adult industry because by that point we will all have been naked on the internet. I think this is awesome.
  • BART or Bay Area Rapid Transit has been part of daily routine all year long. I know the ebb and flow of the trains, I recognize people with the same commute as I have, I’ve watched funny hijinks and stood in horror at the violence that occurred at the start of 2009 in response to a shooting of a man named Oscar Grant. When you rely on public transit, you are continually interacting with other people in the way car travelers don’t. Living car-free has been exciting. It keeps me in shape, I get to fit more novel reading into my life, and I do secretly enjoy the fact that you never know who you may be riding next to on your way to work. It just may be a porn starlet on her way to a shoot. Think about that one next time you hop on public transit because unless you’re in the business it’s not likely to be the case when you drive.
  • My trip to Africa was obviously a big highlight. It forever changed my perception of my place in the world and shook me up in more ways than one. Wow.
  • The City of San Francisco for being always alive and active. The city is its own character in my world. I love finding old cigar ads painted on the side of buildings, I love that a massive suspension bridge stands as a Statue of Liberty and a totem of sexual freedom, I love the murals that adorn its walls, I love its street festivals, I love its fog. I love burritos, sushi, and Indian food in the middle of the night.

There are many other great parts of this year that aren’t mentioned, but I must be off to open a vein for an AIM test so that I can keep performing as a healthy adult for you all. I hope everyone has a fantastic new year.

The Curse of Macbeth


Now in the “porn starring Maggie Mayhem” category is The Curse of Macbeth a project by none other than the lovely Madison Young who has been a sex positive hero in my book for quite some time and an inspiration for the kind of porn performer I want to be. Madison not only brings an earnest love of performing to every single project she takes on but she also opened up the Femina Potens Gallery here in San Francisco. It features trans and women artists as well as a number of amazing sex positive events. I was thrilled to be in the cast not only to work with her but also because as someone with a degree in literature making Shakespearean porn was an idea I could get behind.

It was a fantastic set to be on because I was able to work with friends. Lilla Katt, Rain DeGrey, and Zille Defeu are all amazing women and I was proud to be in a gaggle of witches with them. I was also happy to meet Kade and Simone Kross who are both fantastic people. When I watch the witch orgy scene I am watching myself have a good time with people I like and care about. It makes for good porn when there is chemistry like that.

Feel free to check out my scene featured over at Fleshbot and buy the DVD for yourself (or a friend, lover, friendly lover) at GoodVibes.
