&lt;p&gt;From October 22nd to 25th, I&apos;m going to be horribly amazingly busy : it&apos;s the 4th &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pornfilmfestivalberlin.de/pff_e/&quot;&gt;Berlin Porn Film Festival&lt;/a&gt; !&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m in three of the movies that are screened : &lt;br /&gt;one directed by a straight woman and a straight man (Ovidie &amp;amp; Jack Tyler&apos;s Histoires de Sexe(s)), screened Saturday 24th at 8:15pm, one directed by a lesbian (Emilie Jouvet&apos;s Judy&apos;s Panties), and one directed by a gay man (Todd Verow&apos;s Wendy and Judy), both screened in the dyke porn shorts programme, on Friday 23rd at 5:45, and on Saturday 24th at noon. The first one is a full-length feature with a script, the two others are shorts (9 and 30 minutes) without a story, just sex. I will be answering questions of the audience after the screenings. &lt;br /&gt;
I will also be performing for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.erophil.de/&quot;&gt;Erophil&lt;/a&gt;, a festival for erotic literature, on Sunday Oct. 25th at 1pm. &lt;br /&gt;In addition to the screenings and the reading, I&apos;m also doing a workshop on roleplay and sextoys with Wendy Delorme, Sunday Oct. 25th from 3pm to 5pm. Women, men, and everybody in between or beyond are welcome, but the number of participants is limited. 15€. Register here if you want to attend : &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pornfilmfestivalberlin.de/pff/?page_id=18&quot;&gt;office@pornfilmfestivalberlin.de&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Du 22 au 25 octobre, pour ceux et celles qui seront pas &#xe0; Berlin, y a le &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.parisburlesquefestival.fr/&quot;&gt;Paris Burlesque Festival&lt;/a&gt; &#xe0; la Bellevilloise. Projections de films, performances et revues de cabaret, djs et musique live. Jvous laisse regarder le programme. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Et &#xe0; la fin du mois, le festival &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cineffable.fr/&quot;&gt;Cineffable&lt;/a&gt; : &lt;font class=&quot;G14b&quot;&gt;Le 21e festival international lesbien et f&#xe9;ministe de Paris &lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;se tiendra du &lt;/font&gt;&lt;font class=&quot;N14b&quot;&gt;29 octobre au 2 novembre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bon je crois que j&apos;ai tout dit. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, confession time : I&apos;ve heard several times from people who&apos;d been in relationships with people who were transitioning that they&apos;d had to mourn the loss of someone, that differently gendered person that their partner had been, and was not anymore. My current partner is going through his own transition : when we got together he was my girlfriend and had a girl name and was referred to as &amp;quot;she&amp;quot;, and then little by little he started binding his chest, he changed pronouns, then names, then started taking testosterone, and is considering surgery. I have never felt it was hard for me, on a deep level. Of course his transition brought about the usual questions of my visibility as a queer femme when I&apos;m walking in the streets with someone who is presenting as male or recognized as male by strangers. Of course it brought about the usual questions of my sexual orientation : how can I be a lesbian if my partner is not a girl anymore ? But none of this is a major problem for me. I&apos;ve never really cared about sexual orientation, and as a femme I&apos;m already used to&amp;nbsp; ranting about my invisibility - showing off my butch to prove I&apos;m queer was never really a solution. These problems did occurr, but I never really felt his transition was hard for me. People said &amp;quot;it must be hard for you&amp;quot;, he said &amp;quot;I understand this must be hard for you&amp;quot;, but I didn&apos;t feel it was. I felt it was certainly very hard for him and I had to support him through it, and maybe supporting him would mean sometimes having to hear him bitch about his hair not growing fast enough, or having to be amazed at every new hair that grew on his chin. It also meant having to be very tactful and to deal with his body issues, to respect his stoneness and to help him melt it when he felt like it, and generally having to cheer him up when he went through hard times. All of this felt like normal things, things that should be expected from a loving partner. &lt;/font&gt;The extent of the support he needed from me sometimes meant I had to forget myself, to be selfless, to nurse and care and sometimes to feel reassigned to a traditionally disempowering female role. Sometimes it meant I went more often to the TDoR meetings and the Trans March meetings than to feminist movement events, or sexworkers movement events, and I was wearing a lot of purple, and I felt I had become a flag for a cause which isn&apos;t mine. That felt hard to me. But it was not inherent to his transition. It came from gender constructions I needed to work on, it came from my codependant behavior that I needed to work on, it came from the hardships that any relationship can go through. Nothing was hard for me in his transitioning. But these past months I&apos;ve been realizing I actually have gone through a phase of mourning. It is probably not over yet. I have been mourning the death of my girlfriend, who&apos;s now and forever a boyfriend, the body he had, that is beginning to change irreversibly, the face and the voice and the skin that he had when we met, that I&apos;m beginning to forget. It is a painful process. It is the grief of a loss. The loss of my lesbian love. It&apos;s nothing conscious. There&apos;s a few dreams I&apos;ve had that gave me a clue that maybe something was going on there. There&apos;s a few times I&apos;ve felt a pinch in my heart as I was watching not so old pictures of him. And why is it that the last crushes I&apos;ve had were on persons who were on the verge of transitioning, pe-T, not even binding, but boyish, genderqueer, questioning, or about to take the first steps of their transitions ? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.courtneytrouble.com&quot;&gt;Courtney Trouble&lt;/a&gt; is working hard for you ! Her 1st film, &lt;a href=&quot;http://courtneytrouble.com/roulette&quot;&gt;Roulette&lt;/a&gt;, was released less than six months ago. Her 2nd one, &lt;a href=&quot;http://courtneytrouble.com/nostalgia&quot;&gt;Nostalgia&lt;/a&gt;, was released just over a month ago. The 3rd one, &lt;a href=&quot;http://courtneytrouble.com/speakeasy&quot;&gt;Speakeasy&lt;/a&gt;, was released less than a week ago. The 4th one, Seven Minutes in Heaven, that was shot at the end of August, is already finished editing and you can see its trailer &lt;a href=&quot;http://courtneytrouble.com/seven-minutes-in-heaven-trailer&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. And the 5th one, Roulette Dirty South, is done shooting ! Courtney works with the best everything. Want names ? Morty Diamond, Lorelei Lee, April Flores, Amos Mac, Syd Blakovich, Jiz Lee, Madison Young, Dallas Fivestar are photographers, directors and models she&apos;s worked with. Not only is she doing more and more DVDs, but &lt;a href=&quot;http://nofauxxx.com/&quot;&gt;NoFauxxx&lt;/a&gt; is being updated more frequently than it ever was, and guess who&apos;s in the photos they posted last ? it&apos;s me ! I&apos;m in three other photoshoots on the website. AND I have a secret I can&apos;t tell you right now, which is making my heart pound like crazy...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Une derni&#xe8;re chose : il y a plein de trucs sexuels &#xe0; faire avec ses pieds ou ceux de son/sa/ses partenaires ! Par exemple les enduire de lubrifiant et se les frotter l&#xe0; o&#xf9; j&apos;pense. &lt;br /&gt;Mes lubrifiants pr&#xe9;f&#xe9;r&#xe9;s sont Sliquid H2O Intimate Lubricant, Bodywise Liquid Silk, et Astroglide Glycerin &amp;amp; Paraben Free Liquid, tous les trois &#xe0; base d&apos;eau. Le mieux c&apos;est de choisir des lubrifiants sans parfum, sans paraben (risques d&apos;allergies ou d&apos;hypersensibilit&#xe9;s), et sans sucre (ni glyc&#xe9;rine ni glycol, car si t&apos;as les muqueuses sensibles, avec les frictions &#xe7;a te file des mycoses). Liquid Silk a du paraben et du sucre, mais il est tellement bien... Le flacon de 250ml est pratique, il y a une pompe donc t&apos;en fous pas partout, tu perds pas le bouchon, t&apos;as pas &#xe0; tatonner pendant longtemps. Il colle pas, il est pas visqueux. C&apos;est celui que j&apos;utilise le plus souvent, parce que je n&apos;ai pas de probl&#xe8;mes de mycoses &#xe0; r&#xe9;p&#xe9;tition ou d&apos;hypersensibilit&#xe9; au paraben.&lt;br /&gt;Bon, d&apos;autres gens aiment d&apos;autres lubrifiants, comme par exemple Probe ; mais je connais aussi beaucoup de gens qui le d&#xe9;testent, car &#xe7;a fait des fils comme la colle UHU. D&apos;autres gens aiment les gels &#xe0; base de silicone, comme Concept S. ; water-based vs silicone-based c&apos;est presque une guerre. D&apos;autres gens n&apos;ont pas assez de thunes pour se payer des lubes de luxe ou carr&#xe9;ment les commander depuis les Etats-Unis : auquel cas, n&apos;utilisez surtout pas de lubrifiants &#xe0; base d&apos;huile (vaseline, etc, pas compatibles avec les pr&#xe9;servatifs et tr&#xe8;s tr&#xe8;s tr&#xe8;s mauvais pour votre vagin), &#xe9;vitez si possible les petits sachets de lubrifiant qu&apos;on vous refile avec les capotes gratuites, et n&apos;achetez surtout pas les produits Durex Play (le pire apparemment c&apos;est &amp;quot;frissons&amp;quot;, au menthol, qui a l&apos;air de grave br&#xfb;ler et irriter). Alors si vous pouvez pas vous permettre les d&#xe9;penses excessives, les voyages ou les frais de port, mais que vous voulez quand m&#xea;me vous faire du bien sans vous faire du mal, vous pouvez trouver le lubrifiant KY en pharmacie, &#xe0; mon avis c&apos;est ce qu&apos;il y a de mieux pour pas cher en France. Il est plut&#xf4;t correct - il a de la glyc&#xe9;rine et du paraben, et il colle un peu au bout d&apos;un moment, mais il n&apos;a pas de parfum et il tient longtemps. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bonne nuit ! &lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Thu, 01 Oct 2009 00:47:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Perverse</title><dc:creator>i_m_so_excited</dc:creator><link>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/09/21/15143077.html</link><category>BDSM</category><category>En Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Events</category><category>Politics</category><category>Sex</category><category>Sex Education</category><comments>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/09/21/15143077.html#comments</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/feeds/rss/comments/post/15143077/</wfw:commentRss><guid isPermaLink="true">http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/09/21/15143077.html</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Quelqu&apos;un m&apos;a demand&#xe9; des recommandations de lectures sur le BDSM, et du coup j&apos;ai pass&#xe9; toute la nuit &#xe0; lire des trucs.&lt;br /&gt;Notamment &lt;a href=&quot;http://sm-feminist.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;ce blog&lt;/a&gt;, un blog f&#xe9;ministe pro-SM. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;La r&#xe9;f&#xe9;rence de base pour se lancer dans le BDSM avec des bons conseils, c&apos;est le livre SM 101, de Jay Wiseman, un guide pratique tr&#xe8;s complet. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;R&#xe9;cemment je suis tomb&#xe9;e sur &lt;a href=&quot;http://chocolatcannelle.canalblog.com/&quot;&gt;ceci&lt;/a&gt;, en fran&#xe7;ais pour une fois, qui regorge de critiques de litt&#xe9;rature &#xe9;rotique. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rien &#xe0; voir, mais il faut absolument que vous lisiez cet article sur le blog &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.entrailles.fr/index.php?post/variable-d-ajustement&quot;&gt;les Entrailles&lt;/a&gt;. Attention &#xe7;a remue. Et puis lisez aussi &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cequilfautdetruire.org/spip.php?article2037&quot;&gt;&#xe7;a&lt;/a&gt;. Et allez voter le 3 octobre dans les bureaux de poste pour refuser la privatisation de La Poste. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ces derniers temps j&apos;ai tout plein d&apos;envies d&apos;articles, d&apos;id&#xe9;es d&apos;articles, d&apos;esquisses d&apos;articles, mais je suis pas foutue d&apos;&#xe9;crire un texte structur&#xe9; et organis&#xe9; et exhaustif sur quoi que ce soit, alors je poste que des listes de liens sur lesquels vous cliquerez m&#xea;me pas. C&apos;est dommage, j&apos;avais envie d&apos;&#xe9;crire sur la notion de communautarisme, sur porno h&#xe9;t&#xe9;ro et pr&#xe9;servatif, sur Freud et l&apos;orientation sexuelle, sur comment financer le porno queer... Mais je suis trop paresseuse. Bon voil&#xe0; quand m&#xea;me trois textes sur moi et le BDSM :&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1- Je suis une perverse depuis que j&apos;ai 4 ans. Ou m&#xea;me plus t&#xf4;t. What makes me queer is really BDSM. Bien avant de me d&#xe9;finir comme lesbienne, gouine, fem, butchlover, translover... Mon orientation sexuelle, c&apos;est sub. Toutes mes autres identit&#xe9;s d&#xe9;coulent de &#xe7;a. J&apos;ai commenc&#xe9; &#xe0; coucher avec des butchs et des transboys parce que c&apos;&#xe9;tait aupr&#xe8;s d&apos;elles et eux que je pouvais le mieux obtenir ce que je voulais, assouvir mes d&#xe9;sirs en termes de BDSM. C&apos;&#xe9;tait un choix, une d&#xe9;cision, presque une strat&#xe9;gie. J&apos;ai d&#xe9;lib&#xe9;r&#xe9;ment &#xe9;duqu&#xe9; mes pr&#xe9;f&#xe9;rences et d&#xe9;construit mes perceptions genr&#xe9;es. Le choix de mes partenaires a toujours &#xe9;t&#xe9; conditionn&#xe9; plus par ce que j&apos;attendais d&apos;eux sexuellement que par leur apparence physique, leur sexe ou leur genre. Qu&apos;est-ce qui fait que les butchs et les trans sont plus &#xe0; m&#xea;me de me donner ce que je veux sexuellement que des personnes d&apos;autres genres, c&apos;est une autre question, qui fera l&apos;objet d&apos;un autre article lorsque je n&apos;aurai pas la flemme. Mais ce qui est s&#xfb;r c&apos;est que le BDSM, par contre, &#xe7;a n&apos;a pas &#xe9;t&#xe9; un choix conscient. Je ne me suis pas dit &amp;quot;tiens, &#xe7;a m&apos;int&#xe9;resse, je vais essayer pour pimenter ma vie sexuelle&amp;quot;. Je n&apos;ai pas appris ou d&#xe9;couvert le BDSM. J&apos;ai senti ces d&#xe9;sirs en moi, et j&apos;ai choisi de les suivre et de les explorer, mais je n&apos;ai pas choisi de les avoir. C&apos;&#xe9;tait une &#xe9;vidence. Mes kinks ne sont pas des fantasmes, des accessoires, des condiments ; ils sont les conditions n&#xe9;cessaires &#xe0; mon excitation, les seuls moyens que j&apos;ai d&apos;avoir du d&#xe9;sir. Ils sont mon orientation sexuelle. Parfois m&#xea;me &#xe7;a m&apos;emb&#xea;te, j&apos;aimerais bien pouvoir baiser avec n&apos;importe qui comme &#xe7;a sans avoir &#xe0; expliquer mes d&#xe9;sirs tordus, j&apos;aimerais bien pouvoir faire des compromis et faire des trucs vanilles avec mes partenaires qui ont envie de vanille, mais jpeux pas. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2- Je n&apos;ai que 20 ans, et je pratique le
BDSM depuis plus de 5 ans.
Au d&#xe9;but, j&apos;ai recherch&#xe9; &#xe9;norm&#xe9;ment de ressources, d&apos;informations et de
partage sur internet, car je voulais en savoir plus, et aussi
rencontrer des gens avec qui j&apos;avais des int&#xe9;r&#xea;ts sexuels en commun.
Mais tous les forums que je trouvais m&apos;imposaient de mettre une
minuscule &#xe0; mon nom, de vouvoyer les dom-me-s du site...
C&apos;&#xe9;tait le protocole, soi-disant. J&apos;&#xe9;tais soumise, alors je devais me comporter comme une soumise sur ce forum. J&apos;avais &#xe9;t&#xe9; outr&#xe9;e. Une fois, j&apos;ai essay&#xe9; de rencontrer un Dom d&apos;un site internet pour un plan cul ; c&apos;&#xe9;tait naze, rien &#xe0; voir avec ce que moi j&apos;appelle le BDSM. Depuis, j&apos;ai eu tendance &#xe0; &#xe9;viter les soir&#xe9;es, les
communaut&#xe9;s en ligne, et g&#xe9;n&#xe9;ralement mes partenaires sont des
d&#xe9;butants, que j&apos;ai moi-m&#xea;me initi&#xe9;s au
BDSM, car la plupart des gens qui sont &amp;quot;in the lifestyle&amp;quot; ont adopt&#xe9;
des normes qui ne me conviennent pas. Il y a &#xe9;norm&#xe9;ment de misogynie.
Beaucoup de doms et de masters
(auto-proclam&#xe9;s, s&apos;entend) dans le milieu BDSM h&#xe9;t&#xe9;ro francophone sont simplement des petits tyrans, qui prennent leur
pied &#xe0; avoir du pouvoir non-consensuellement. Etre dom-me ou sub, &#xe7;a ne veut dire quelque chose qu&apos;&#xe0; l&apos;int&#xe9;rieur d&apos;un
&#xe9;change de pouvoir n&#xe9;goci&#xe9; et consensuel.
Soumis-e et dom-me ne sont pas des statuts sociaux, ce sont des
positions dans une relation, pas dans une communaut&#xe9;.
Je ne suis pas la sub de tout le monde, je suis la sub de
quelqu&apos;un. Je ne dois d&#xe9;f&#xe9;rence qu&apos;&#xe0; la personne &#xe0; qui j&apos;ai choisi de me
soumettre.
Je ne suis pas soumise &#xe0; tout le monde, tout le temps.
Je ne suis pas soumise &#xe0; tou-te-s les dom-me-s dans un forum ou une
soir&#xe9;e BDSM. Si je suis sur un forum pour demander des conseils
concernant l&apos;entretien du latex, je ne vois pas pourquoi je demanderais
ces conseils en faisant des pirouettes et en renon&#xe7;ant &#xe0; la majuscule
dans mon nom. Si je suis dans une soir&#xe9;e avec ma domme ou mon dom, je
ne vois pas pourquoi je devrais ob&#xe9;issance &#xe0; tous les autres. Je n&apos;ai
pas de contrats avec les autres, je n&apos;ai pas donn&#xe9; de pouvoir aux
autres. Je ne suis pas soumise quand je fais mes courses, je ne suis
pas soumise quand je vais &#xe0; la fac, je ne suis pas soumise quand je
discute sur internet avec des gens qui font du BDSM. Je suis soumise
quand je suis avec quelqu&apos;un avec qui j&apos;ai consenti &#xe0; avoir une
relation d&apos;&#xe9;change de pouvoir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3- Comme je me refusais &#xe0; rechercher mes partenaires dans le milieu BDSM fran&#xe7;ais, j&apos;ai la plupart du temps initi&#xe9; mes partenaires au BDSM, le d&#xe9;sir et la demande sont venus de moi. Mais &#xe7;a a aussi des inconv&#xe9;nients. Une partie d&apos;entre eux-elles &#xe9;taient r&#xe9;ticent-e-s, et acceptaient au mieux du &amp;quot;rough sex&amp;quot;, et en tout cas jamais une v&#xe9;ritable relation D/s. Pour eux-elles c&apos;&#xe9;tait fun, c&apos;&#xe9;tait une exp&#xe9;rience, c&apos;&#xe9;tait un moyen de me donner du plaisir ou d&apos;en prendre, mais c&apos;&#xe9;tait jamais la structure de la relation. Les &#xe9;motions qui passaient entre nous l&#xe0;-dedans ne les rendait jamais profond&#xe9;ment heureux-ses ou malheureux-ses, tout au mieux &#xe9;mu-e-s. D&apos;autres partenaires &#xe9;taient simplement d&#xe9;butant-e-s, pas r&#xe9;ticent-e-s, mais simplement pas habitu&#xe9;-e-s, pas familier-&#xe8;re-s avec &#xe7;a, et avaient besoin de temps pour avancer, aller plus loin, construire un &#xe9;rotisme et une philosophie autour de &#xe7;a, l&apos;inscrire dans l&apos;essence de leur relation avec moi. Bien s&#xfb;r &#xe7;a prend du temps, et c&apos;est normal. Moi non plus, du haut de mes 20 ans je ne suis pas arriv&#xe9;e au bout de mon apprentissage de ce que c&apos;est que le BDSM. Cependant j&apos;en suis plus loin que tout-e-s les partenaires que j&apos;ai eu-e-s jusqu&apos;&#xe0; pr&#xe9;sent, et &#xe7;a me met parfois dans une position un peu d&#xe9;sagr&#xe9;able, de devoir &#xea;tre &amp;quot;top-from-the-bottom&amp;quot;, une soumise qui initie son-sa Ma&#xee;tre-sse... Devoir demander qu&apos;on me fasse ci ou &#xe7;a, expliquer ce que j&apos;aime, enseigner des techniques, des notions, des concepts... Initier des nouvelles pratiques, rassurer l&apos;autre qui ne se sent pas &#xe0; l&apos;aise, pas capable, pas en s&#xe9;curit&#xe9;... Quand je suis dans le subspace c&apos;est tr&#xe8;s dur pour moi d&apos;en sortir et de dire &#xe0; mon-ma partenaire ce que je veux. Mais j&apos;ai pas le choix, alors &lt;font face=&quot;monospace&quot;&gt;j&lt;/font&gt;e dois expliquer ce que je veux, et &#xea;tre en contr&#xf4;le plus que je ne le voudrais, et petit &#xe0; petit on fait ensemble le chemin vers une v&#xe9;ritable relation domination/soumission, qui sort de la chambre &#xe0; coucher, qui sort du purement sexuel, qui va plus loin, qui construit nos rapports et qui est un support pour l&apos;amour qu&apos;on se donne. J&apos;aimerais pouvoir davantage l&#xe2;cher prise, &#xea;tre prise en charge. Souvent j&apos;aimerais que mes partenaires prennent plus d&apos;initiatives, j&apos;aimerais &#xea;tre surprise, j&apos;aimerais jouer avec des personnes plus exp&#xe9;riment&#xe9;es que moi. J&apos;aimerais &#xea;tre choqu&#xe9;e par leurs fantasmes. Au lieu de &#xe7;a, je suis souvent bless&#xe9;e lorsque j&apos;ose sortir de ma pudeur, parler d&apos;un kink ou d&apos;un d&#xe9;sir, et que je vois l&apos;autre r&#xe9;agir avec d&#xe9;go&#xfb;t, ou rejet... C&apos;est humiliant et douloureux lorsque je parle d&apos;une envie et que mon-ma partenaire me juge, me trouve bizarre ou tordue... &lt;br /&gt;Et puis il y a autre chose, quelque chose sur lequel je ne sais pas bien mettre des mots. Les personnes qui m&apos;ont domin&#xe9;e &#xe9;taient souvent&lt;font face=&quot;monospace&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;des gens qui se sont r&#xe9;v&#xe9;l&#xe9;s pas assez forts pour prendre&amp;nbsp; v&#xe9;ritablement les responsabilit&#xe9;s qui vont avec la confiance et l&apos;abandon que je leur donne. Ou qui n&apos;en veulent pas, qui ne savent pas quoi en faire, qui en ont peur, qui les pi&#xe9;tinent ou qui ne les comprennent pas. Je me sens souvent assez seule, quand je dis &#xe0; la personne qui me domine &amp;quot;je suis &#xe0; toi&amp;quot; d&apos;une mani&#xe8;re ou d&apos;une autre, quand je lui exprime ma gratitude ou mon envie de bien faire pour lui faire plaisir, pour qu&apos;elle soit fi&#xe8;re de moi, bref, quand je m&apos;&#xe9;tends sur ce que je ressens et la force de la soumission qui m&apos;unit &#xe0; elle, et que je vois bien qu&apos;elle n&apos;y attache pas tant d&apos;importance, qu&apos;elle n&apos;y attribue pas autant de signification, qu&apos;elle ne comprend pas que &#xe7;a n&apos;est pas un jeu, que &#xe7;a ne veut pas seulement dire &amp;quot;tu peux faire ce que tu veux avec mon corps&amp;quot;. C&apos;est tr&#xe8;s douloureux de s&apos;investir autant l&#xe0;-dedans, de donner autant, et d&apos;avoir l&apos;impression qu&apos;il n&apos;y a pas de r&#xe9;ponse en face. C&apos;est comme si je donnais tout ce que j&apos;ai &#xe0; quelqu&apos;un et qu&apos;il le refusait, ou qu&apos;il n&apos;en comprenait pas le sens. Je fais un grand discours romantique, mes yeux se remplissent de larmes, mon coeur est au bord de l&apos;explosion, et l&apos;autre baille. J&apos;ai l&apos;impression d&apos;&#xea;tre seule, d&apos;&#xea;tre &amp;quot;dans mon trip&amp;quot;. L&apos;&#xe9;tat de vuln&#xe9;rabilit&#xe9; dans lequel je me mets, c&apos;est aussi vraiment dangereux et douloureux parfois, parce qu&apos;il y a si peu de tops qui peuvent r&#xe9;ellement le comprendre. Je me sens tellement bien dans le subspace, et je voudrais le partager, et parfois j&apos;ai l&apos;impression de m&apos;&#xea;tre mise dans le subspace toute seule, de m&apos;&#xea;tre &amp;quot;fait un film&amp;quot;, de m&apos;&#xea;tre trop emball&#xe9;e. C&apos;est peut-&#xea;tre une des raisons pour lesquelles j&apos;ai toujours eu l&apos;impression que l&apos;exp&#xe9;rience de la domination, la position dominante, &#xe9;tait beaucoup moins intense, rendait beaucoup moins heureux-se, que la soumission. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Je sais pas si &#xe7;a a sa place sur ce blog tout &#xe7;a. Dites-moi. Une partie a &#xe9;t&#xe9; &#xe9;crite il y a bient&#xf4;t un an, et avec le recul je me demande si &#xe7;a a le moindre int&#xe9;r&#xea;t. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bon, et deux &#xe9;v&#xe8;nements festifs queer &#xe0; venir :&lt;br /&gt;Vendredi 25 septembre : soir&#xe9;e Wet for Me au Nouveau Casino. minuit &#xe0; l&apos;aube. 5€ avant 1h, 10€ apr&#xe8;s.

J&apos;ai bient&#xf4;t fini de lire The Ethical Slut, 2e &#xe9;dition, de Dossie Easton et Janet Hardy, et &#xe7;a m&apos;a donn&#xe9; beaucoup d&apos;inspiration, de courage et de conseils. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ces derniers temps j&apos;ai envie de traduire en fran&#xe7;ais tous les livres que je lis, pour pouvoir partager avec mes amis... Je traduis moins vite que je lis malheureusement, et les maisons d&apos;&#xe9;dition fran&#xe7;aises sont frileuses, alors &#xe7;a s&apos;empile. Bordel y a des centaines de bouquins qui sont cultes, classiques, absolument incontournables, et qui ne sont toujours pas disponibles en fran&#xe7;ais... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://carnalnation.com/&quot;&gt;Carnal Nation&lt;/a&gt; est un nouveau site, une nouvelle ressource dans la sc&#xe8;ne sex-positive am&#xe9;ricaine.

N&apos;empeche, ca me ferait drolement plaisir d&apos;etre sur cette liste - et ca me ramenerait grave du traffic.&lt;br /&gt;Bon, mais suis-je vraiment qualifiee et eligible ? &lt;br /&gt;Est-ce que mon blog est un sexblog ? Ouais. &lt;br /&gt;Mais d&apos;une, ce blog est partiellement en anglais, partiellement en francais. Peut-etre qu&apos;ils voudront pas de moi car j&apos;ecris trop souvent en francais ? Ensuite, contrairement aux gens qui tiennent leur blog serieusement, moi je poste assez irregulierement, et surtout j&apos;ecris pas toujours un article qui a un theme, une histoire a raconter, une these a soutenir - souvent, je parle de 15 trucs differents, 3 lignes pour chaque info, je mets plein de liens vers des trucs que j&apos;aime bien, et je divague beaucoup. &lt;br /&gt;En plus mon blog est moche, j&apos;ai pas de logo, de jolie mise en page, de photos de moi toute nue, tout ca. J&apos;ai fait expres qu&apos;il soit austere pour que faille vraiment le vouloir pour le lire, mais bon, j&apos;ai des remords parfois.&lt;br /&gt;Est-ce que, si je rentre pas dans la liste cette fois-ci, je devrais ecrire en anglais plus souvent, et des articles plus rigoureux, pour essayer de remplir les exigences de cette liste d&apos;ici a l&apos;an prochain, pour etre dans les Sexiest Bloggers of 2010 ? D&apos;ailleurs, lecteurs francophones, ca vous empeche de me lire quand j&apos;ecris en anglais ? Vous attendez le prochain post en francais ? Ou bien vous comprenez l&apos;anglais aussi et ca vous importe peu ? C&apos;est quoi vos articles preferes ? De quoi vous voulez que je vous parle ? Y a quelqu&apos;un qui lit ce blog ? J&apos;espere que vous lisez tout hein, et en cliquant sur les liens, et en prenant des notes ! Voila cette nomination m&apos;a fait me poser plein de questions. Alors laissez-moi plus de commentaires, je me sens un peu toute seule parfois !&lt;br /&gt;Au fait je sais pas pourquoi mais il y a de la pub sur mon blog maintenant. Elle etait deja la avant et j&apos;avais pas remarque ? Ou est-ce que c&apos;est depuis que j&apos;ai mis mon blog dans la categorie &amp;quot;Pour Adultes&amp;quot; ? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://tinafiveash.com.au/portfolio.html&quot;&gt;Tina Fiveash&lt;/a&gt; est une photographe australienne, et &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_Opie&quot;&gt;Catherine Opie&lt;/a&gt; une photographe americaine, et je connais pas tres bien leur travail mais elles m&apos;interessent. Jetez un coup d&apos;oeil !&lt;/p&gt;

I will be performing there, as well as Madison Young, Midori, Fivestar... and also Margaret Cho !!! &lt;br /&gt;2199 Market Street &amp;amp; Sanchez. Come ! My piece might get messy !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tuesday, August 25th - RADAR, reading series, at the San Francisco Public Library.&lt;br /&gt;It is hosted by Michelle Tea and I will be reading some of my writing. Rose Tully and Katie Crouch will also be reading. It is free ! Come ! I won&apos;t be naked, promise !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I just discovered &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.pornsaints.org&quot;&gt;PornSaints&lt;/a&gt;, and it&apos;s a very exciting project. &lt;br /&gt;I want to be a pornsaint ! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am reading the book &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theahillman.com/depending.html&quot;&gt;Intersex (for lack of a better word)&lt;/a&gt;, by Thea Hillman, and you have to read it too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The HomoAGoGo festival just ended and it was great. A fashion show (I walked the catwalk in a pink crochet jumpsuit), an art exhibit (I particularly loved a painting of two giraffes snuggling that was entitled Longingly), live music (I was amazed by &lt;a href=&quot;www.myspace.com/coldcoldwater&quot;&gt;Mirah&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;www.myspace.com/tenderforever&quot;&gt;Tender Forever&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.myspace.com/timmwest&quot;&gt;Tim&apos;m West&lt;/a&gt;)... &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Being in SF has me wondering about something I&apos;m feeling increasingly uncomfortable with. &lt;br /&gt;Buying local, cruelty-free, fair trade, organic, recycled, non GMO, women-owned... Political choices seem to be a lot about consumption choices. &lt;br /&gt;Are politics just marketing niches ? In French supermarkets, there is a tiny fair trade deparment, with very attractive packages that make you feel very cool, where the prices are much higher than the rest, and then there&apos;s the usual trash - made-in-China, underpaid cashiers, and battery chicken.&lt;br /&gt;When you buy from a shop that sells many products that were made by 8-year-old kids, or tested on animals, AND a line of ethical products, who are you giving money to and what purposes does it serve ? As it seems to me, it&apos;s just a way for the shop to get money from more people : the ones who don&apos;t give a fuck about politics, AND the ones who do. &lt;br /&gt;I remember going to this very green, ecological, organic, vegan restaurant in Paris, where they had no switch for the light in the bathroom. It never went off. When I enquired why, the woman said &amp;quot;when there is one, people forget to switch it off anyway&amp;quot;, which is obviously a ridiculous justification.&lt;br /&gt;This also makes me think of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.entrailles.fr/public/Documents_texte/cartePPA-juin2006_l.pdf&quot;&gt;what this link shows&lt;/a&gt; : namely, that a few corporations own all the printed press, TV channels, and publishing companies of my country. The newspaper of the Communist Party is partially owned by a corporation that also owns a part of Cosmopolitan, and hundreds of other magazines, newspapers and tv channels (and also a weapon producing and arms trading company). I am not saying that the journalists who work for this newspaper are subservient to capitalism and not honest in the work they&apos;re doing. I&apos;m saying the corporation that holds so many shares of their capital is convinced they&apos;re harmless and that reading this communist newspaper will not make any revolution or social change happen that would threaten its interests. It all confuses me a lot. To what extent can we trust a publisher who is selling a feminist book and a book
advocating for rape, a book defending the theory of intelligent design and a book
that is pro-darwinism, a book that says capitalism should end and
a book that says communism is the root of all evil ? Are the freedom of speech that we have and the independance of our journalists so harmless and ineffective to make a real change ? &lt;br /&gt;It makes me think of &amp;quot;La dictature c&apos;est ferme ta gueule, la democratie c&apos;est cause toujours&amp;quot;, it makes me think of &amp;quot;if voting could change anything it would be illegal&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;What can we do ? If you know how not to get cynical about this, please comment. I&apos;m in need of positive thoughts on the matter. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to see Speakeasy, Courtney Trouble&apos;s yet unreleased 3rd movie, and it is HOT. The most glamorous queer porn I&apos;ve ever seen. The bondage scene with Jiz Lee and Dallas Fivestar made me cream in my jeans. Lorelei Lee is one gorgeous foxy lady. Beautiful B&amp;amp;W photography, a simple, classic, efficient storyline, and hot FtM-on-femme &amp;amp; transfag action make for a dirty, smutty, delicious film noir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got to attend the shooting of her 4th film, Seven minutes in Heaven, and it&apos;s gonna be HOT. Courtney is still in the process of editing it and since I&apos;m staying at her place, I get to hear the soundtrack of moans and whines and groans everyday as I wake up. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Oh, and : my creativity and inspiration are developing ! It is very exciting and sleep-depriving ! I am now a 19 year old porn actress, performance artist, sex educator, translator, activist and writer ! &lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Sat, 22 Aug 2009 09:51:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Stone</title><dc:creator>i_m_so_excited</dc:creator><link>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/08/21/14803864.html</link><category>In English</category><category>My own private emo ego</category><category>Queer</category><category>Sex</category><comments>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/08/21/14803864.html#comments</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/feeds/rss/comments/post/14803864/</wfw:commentRss><guid isPermaLink="true">http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/08/21/14803864.html</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Stone is the transmen who won&apos;t get naked when they&apos;re fucking you, much less let you fuck them. Stone is the sexworkers who won&apos;t let their clients kiss them. Stone is how sometimes you get ticklish and it&apos;s just the way your body says &amp;quot;don&apos;t touch me there&amp;quot;. Stone is the butches who don&apos;t want my lipstick to get smeared on their lips when we make out, and the reason why I wear kiss-proof rouge a levres. Stone is how so many women won&apos;t trust anyone but themselves with their bodies enough to let go and cum. Stone is how I&apos;ll get tense if you get too close to my clit, and keep my hand ready to stop yours, clutched firmly around your arm, trying to keep control. Stone is how I&apos;ll fidget and wiggle under you, feeling trapped, not telling you I&apos;m scared, just trying to reduce the harm, moving away from you with my hips, escaping as much as I can. &amp;quot;You&apos;re not doing anything wrong, just going places where I&apos;ve been hurt&amp;quot;, I whisper when you ask what&apos;s going on. Thank you for asking. Maybe stone is also how upset you got, how I felt you cringe, when your friend called you a name he says is your real name, and how relieved you felt that I didn&apos;t hear it. Stone is these experiences that queers have in common, these hard boundaries that pain has carved in our bodies, making us harden. In some places, my stone can be melted, if you do it right, if you&apos;re patient and listen. In others, it will remain hard as a rock.&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Fri, 21 Aug 2009 10:42:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>overwhelming whirlwind</title><dc:creator>i_m_so_excited</dc:creator><link>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/08/15/14748866.html</link><category>BDSM</category><category>En Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Feminism</category><category>In English</category><category>My own private emo ego</category><category>Porno</category><category>Queer</category><category>Sexwork</category><comments>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/08/15/14748866.html#comments</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/feeds/rss/comments/post/14748866/</wfw:commentRss><guid isPermaLink="true">http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/08/15/14748866.html</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;so, after reading my last post, someone told me the exhaustion i talk about at the end of the text is very typical of sexworkers, and such women as Annie Sprinkle and Virginie Despentes mention similar feelings. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;here&apos;s what i wrote back :&lt;br /&gt;my exhaustion has very little to do with sexwork though. &lt;br /&gt;i started feeling this way long before i began sexworking. &lt;br /&gt;it&apos;s just the way my life is meant to be. &lt;br /&gt;a constant overwhelming whirlwind. hectic frantic and fantastic. &lt;br /&gt;i can hardly keep up with it, but most of the time the breathlessness just makes me a little dizzy and light-headed with happiness and excitement. &lt;br /&gt;except the times when i get burnt out and have a nervous breakdown.&lt;br /&gt;maybe sometime i&apos;ll come to terms with the existential anxiety that leads me to run after time the way i do, keeping myself busy all the time, maybe trying to escape something, who knows. i&apos;m sure i&apos;ll work that out. &lt;br /&gt;until then, this neurosis makes my life pretty darn interesting.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;voici un lien vers un site qui vient d&apos;etre cree : &lt;a href=&quot;http://lesmotsdelachair.wordpress.com/&quot;&gt;Les mots de la chair. &lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Mad Kate screamed in her performance, and it echoed deep inside with this obsession I have.&lt;br /&gt;The obsession to record my life, to make archives of my life, with words and sounds and images and bits of papers put together. &lt;br /&gt;I was trying to write it all down, but I was constantly failing, never enough time, never enough paper, never enough ink, I kept failing and being late, losing my breath. Je faisais la course avec le temps, j&apos;essayais de rattraper la r&#xe9;alit&#xe9;, je voulais &#xe9;crire ce que je vivais quasi simultan&#xe9;ment, mais j&apos;&#xe9;tais toujours en retard sur les &#xe9;v&#xe8;nements, le temps que je finisse de raconter l&apos;histoire de la veille la journ&#xe9;e d&apos;aujourd&apos;hui &#xe9;tait pass&#xe9;e, pleine de nouvelles histoires &#xe0; raconter... &lt;br /&gt;Alors j&apos;ai arr&#xea;t&#xe9;. I stopped trying after a few days, and I started living it to the fullest, taking as much as I could take from this experience. &lt;br /&gt;I was discovering new cities, new people, all these landscapes unfolding outside the windows of the van, all these stories unfolding on the rows of seats inside the van... &lt;br /&gt;Berlin Wendy Brussels Sadie Paris Madison Cologne Katie Copenhagen Emilie Stockholm Ena Malmo Judy.&lt;br /&gt;The seven of us, coated with sweat and filth after hours and hours of road, dirty with our little secrets and fears and ego battles and love letters, dirty with our little voices and laughters and underwear and fantasies. So much time spent together in this van, learning who I was, learning who each of them was, telling them about me and hearing about them, while another one was trying to sleep and couldn&apos;t because we were too loud. So much time spent laughing, screaming with laughter, laughing until my muscles hurt with it, laughing until I couldn&apos;t breathe, because Sadie was just so funny. So much time spent talking, my little high-pitched voice going further and further as I was telling my story, trying to be as faithful as possible to the truth, over analyzing everything I was saying... Each conversation that started seemed to end up being an exhaustive exploration of everything that could be said on the matter, with all of us participating, and all of us learning so much in the process. It was incredible. &lt;br /&gt;
We talked about psychiatrization and how harmful it can be to people
in general and to women and queers in particular, we talked about how
problematic it is to label someone crazy and how helpful it can be to
be diagnosed sometimes, and how complicated all of this is.&lt;br /&gt;We talked about art and money and how we manage to deal with the apparent contradiction and how we work out the issues that come up when your job is your passion, or when your passion doesn&apos;t pay the bills. &lt;br /&gt;We talked about sexual orientation and the limits of defining oneself as homo/hetero/bi, or generally making the gender of your partners what determines your own identity. &lt;br /&gt;We talked about sexwork and being out and being closeted and educating people and taking care of yourself and choosing your battles.&lt;br /&gt;We talked about compulsive grooming like popping zits and plucking hair and how weird it is that it feels so good. &lt;br /&gt;We talked about the porn industry and how it is in LA as opposed to in Europe, and how to prepare yourself for an anal scene. &lt;br /&gt;
We talked about race and class and gender, beauty standards,
sexual
freedom, objectification, transgression and taboo, shame and guilt.&lt;br /&gt;
We talked about our fetishes, our exes, our first times, our partners, our families, our body issues.&lt;br /&gt;We talked about white people with dreadlocks and cultural appropriation.&lt;br /&gt;
We talked about alcoholism, codependance and relationships. &lt;br /&gt;We talked about group dynamics.&lt;br /&gt;We talked about linguistics.&lt;br /&gt;We talked about so many other different things and in the end I&apos;m so grateful that we were able to share so much, and I was confronted with so many worldviews that I&apos;d never thought of before, and I was able to give a voice to so many ideas or stories that I&apos;d had to hush or I hadn&apos;t been able to express before. &lt;br /&gt;These girls are all such exceptional persons, performers, writers, thinkers, and besides super hot, and I felt so honored to be a part of this. &lt;br /&gt;I grew and improved as a performer, too. When I accepted to take part in the tour, I really didn&apos;t think of myself as a good performer, and I certainly didn&apos;t think of my performances as art. &lt;br /&gt;Whenever I performed, it was in front of an audience mostly filled with my friends, or if they were not my friends I felt I was lucky to be on this stage, it was almost undeserved, I thought of it as &amp;quot;I&apos;m a beginner, they are offering me this stage for me to try out, experiment, learn, and if there weren&apos;t other more professional, more talented performers in this show, the audience wouldn&apos;t be as indulgent with me.&amp;quot; I felt that I was Wendy&apos;s little sister, she had given me the chance to be there and I almost apologized for being there and never felt like what I did was really worth anything. Things changed slowly, I started developing my own solo performances myself, instead of always doing duos with Wendy, working on them alone instead of always asking her for coaching. Of course her help and her teaching was extremely valuable, and she was a great mentor to me, and she gave me so many opportunities. But at some point I had to try and fly with my own wings, and I did it little by little, and this tour definately created a new level of independance and self-confidence for me as a performer. I no longer think I&apos;m bad. I&apos;m definately inexperimented, and a beginner, but what I do is beginning to have its own little personal flavor, it is my work, it is my creation. I&apos;m beginning to see performing as &amp;quot;hello, here I am, I&apos;m Judy Minx, this is my art, I&apos;m putting it out there for people to see and to criticize or praise&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;Our show was a whole, it was a complete entity. The structure of it, the line-up (which number goes first, second, ..., last), we thought about all of this together and that way we integreated each little fragment, our solo numbers, into a bigger picture, an artpiece, a show. I was proud of all of us. When I felt I&apos;d been bad, I was still able to see how great a show we&apos;d done. When I felt I&apos;d been great but the audience hadn&apos;t been very receptive to the show as a whole or the connection I&apos;d had with the other performers hadn&apos;t been that good, I wasn&apos;t satisfied. It felt good to be working together like that. We all contributed to making the show good, we weren&apos;t just going on stage and doing our own piece and then letting the others do theirs. We gave suggestions, processed and brainstormed about each other&apos;s pieces, we asked for advice or opinions on our performance ideas, we made the others contribute to our solo numbers to make them duos, trios, quartets... Backstage we asked each other for bobbypins, hairspray, glitter, fake blood, fake eyelashes, lipstick, help with zipping the costume on or taking the shoes off... &lt;br /&gt;Another very interesting thing was to perform to so many different
audiences, in so many different venues and contexts, and to adapt our
show according to the circumstances. A few hecklers from time to time. Some awkward shyness. Young drunk dykes at 1am the night
of the gay pride in a huge club in Stockholm. A very quiet, seated,
intellectual and artsy audience on a very interesting and newly built
stage in Malmo at 10pm. A very receptive, very interested audience at 8pm in a small gay bar in Paris, who instantly got carried away with us in a very intimate and ritual-like connection, although they were totally unused to seeing anything like us... I could obviously not do a
15 minutes spoken word act, that requires silence and attention from
the audience, at 1am in a club where people were standing and getting
drunk and wanted to party. We couldn&apos;t do a fisting performance in
Stockholm where the restrictions on nudity and explicitness and public
sex are tough. I couldn&apos;t do twice the same number in the same city.
etc. Working out all of this was a very interesting part of our work.&lt;br /&gt;Sadie Lune wrote this rap for me (she made one for each of us) :&lt;br /&gt;Tits for a minute, legs for days&lt;br /&gt;Spreads em wide and invites your gaze&lt;br /&gt;Drinks from a bottle fresh soy milk&lt;br /&gt;And pisses all over your new silk &lt;br /&gt;Judy Minx ! Judy Minx ! Baby pornstar really makes you think&lt;br /&gt;Judy Minx ! Judy Minx ! You&apos;ll miss a mouthful if you stop to blink !&lt;br /&gt;Tranny cock and kinky sex&lt;br /&gt;Born in heels and raisin&apos; heck&lt;br /&gt;She&apos;ll never believe you might be right&lt;br /&gt;Unless the rope&apos;s tight extra tight&lt;br /&gt;
Judy Minx ! Judy Minx ! Baby pornstar really makes you think&lt;br /&gt;Judy Minx ! Judy Minx ! Brains and a pussy and a load of high jinx !&lt;br /&gt;I got to see my cervix, meet incredibly talented people, chew on a red hot chili and find it sexually arousing, question my assumptions about who I&apos;m attracted to or not, whip myself with branches in a sauna on wheels just a few meters from the Baltic sea, laugh at stupid private jokes shared by less than ten girls on this planet, have sex with hot queers after the shows in the backstage/in the ladiesroom/in the van, and get away with it without any polyamorous drama or yeast infection, do ageplay under the full moon, be attacked by an army of ladybugs and stung by a wasp, eat disgusting food in freeway rest-stops and delicious food in great restaurants, meet many people whose names end in -a, like Anna Erica Cecilia Christina and Alva, go to the Pere Lachaise and the Sacre Coeur, two touristy things I&apos;d never taken time to do in my everyday life in Paris, decorate a van with garlands of tampons and hair-rollers and fake flowers and barbies in bondage and dick-shaped mint candy, hit on perfect strangers and not fear rejection, develop my creativity and feel validated as an artist, have crushes on people I probably wouldn&apos;t have thought were my type at first, see friends of mine who live far from Paris and that I don&apos;t see often enough, meet real straight feminist men, visit Christiania and be disappointed, buy a faux-vintage girdle, feel how much I miss you when I&apos;m away and how thankful I am to have you, eat ice-cream, feel my belly aching with desire, not take enough showers, create more femme solidarity... &lt;br /&gt;There&apos;s something else I want to talk about. While we were in Paris, a very close friend of mine who is trans&apos;, who had worked at helping us with the props and the stage, got assaulted. He was called a dyke by a men, then he was punched in the face and he fell to the floor and fainted, bleeding a lot. Noone came to help, although it was in the metro in the middle of the afternoon and people were passing by. He got two stitches and a lot of fear and shock. &lt;br /&gt;On August 1st, while we were in Copenhagen, a masked man entered a LGBT Youth Center in Tel Aviv and started shooting, killing two persons and injuring 11 more. &lt;br /&gt;You&apos;re always much more free on the stage than on the dancefloor. If
I&apos;m topless on the stage I&apos;m considered to be doing art with my body
and the distance with the audience prevents anyone from
non-consensually touching me. If I&apos;m topless on the dancefloor I&apos;m just
a drunk girl who&apos;s asking for it and they can all touch my tits without
asking for permission, and then the bouncers can kick me out because &amp;quot;this
ain&apos;t a strip club&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;These things remind us that we can&apos;t be apolitical artists, we can&apos;t just do pretty and sexy things and not care about what is actually going on out there. Being an artist puts you in a very privileged space, and it makes you safer from these attacks. Performing feels very good to us, but we can&apos;t just do it because we enjoy it or just because it&apos;s empowering for us. We need to make something good for the world, good for our audiences. We can&apos;t stay in ivory towers, we can&apos;t disconnect our art from what is going on out there. Because when they attack one of us, they are attacking us all. Because it keeps happening, in Tel Aviv, in Paris and everywhere else, and it needs to stop. Because art can be and needs to be a force that impacts change, an element of the social and political context in which the world evolves. Because it all feels so close to us, because it has happened to us, and it could happen again, to be the victims of someone&apos;s hatred, to be the victims of the states&apos;s institutionalized discriminations, and we don&apos;t want to go through this in silence. Our art is political, and I have never been interested in creating anything that wasn&apos;t. (although there&apos;s an article in Swedish on the internet that misunderstandingly quotes me. it says I said that there&apos;s nothing more to our show than entertainment and fun. it is not true and i didn&apos;t say that.) &lt;br /&gt;On a little square in Malmo, we went to a ceremony with candles and a march and a kiss-in on Aug 5th in remembrance of the victims of the Tel Aviv tragedy and to express solidarity with its survivors. Vendela, the organizer of this little demonstration, who is also one of the most wonderful persons I&apos;ve met during this tour, read passages from the Queer Manifesto. Her voice was so strong and so broken and so beautiful I wanted to cry. AN ARMY OF LOVERS CANNOT LOSE, she chanted. I hope she&apos;s right. Until we&apos;re proven wrong we&apos;ll keep fighting. &lt;br /&gt;After the last show in Berlin, everybody was sad that the tour was over. I loved it, it was definately a life-changing experience that helped me understand more about where I want to go with my life, what kind of person I want to be... But I was not sad that it was the end. I really needed it to stop. The sleep-deprivation needed to stop. I needed to be on my own again, release myself from the constant tension and self-consciousness and fears that group dynamics like this one raise in me, spend a few days with my partner, get things done in Paris... &lt;br /&gt;I am now in San Francisco, where I got less than 24 hours ago. I really wish life was slower. It all happens all the time, I never get a rest from all the craziness, and it has just begun ! It drives me insane, and I mean it. I undergo a whole little personal revolution every three months. It&apos;s been like that for a while now, things get more and more hectic as it goes, I always think it can&apos;t get worse but it does, I have a serious problem with FOMO (fear of missing out) so I keep trying to do it all, I think &amp;quot;I&apos;ll sleep when I&apos;m dead&amp;quot; but I actually need some sleep or I&apos;ll get burnt out. I keep having to choose between sleeping eating and taking showers and I end up not doing enough of either. One life-changing experience a day is too much. I can&apos;t process it all. The next one ends up erasing the previous one, because it was too quick, I couldn&apos;t get over the first one and there&apos;s already something new sweeping me off my feet. I need some rest, I need a slower pace in my life. It&apos;s just so hard to not do everything, to not make the most of every opportunity that I get. When you&apos;re 20 and you&apos;re offered to participate in projects with people who not so long ago were your idols and heroes, you can&apos;t say no. You can&apos;t tell yourself &amp;quot;I refuse this one and I&apos;ll get another chance later&amp;quot;. So I&apos;m living it up. I wanted my stay in San Francisco to be a vacation. Spa, manicure, shopping, sleeping, drinking fruit smoothies and having healthy food, writing and seeing friends... But then Madison offered me to perform for her art gallery, Femina Potens. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So tomorrow night, August 14th, I&apos;ll be performing for the first time in the US ! I&apos;m excited, come see me if you get a chance. The event is called SIZZLE.

&lt;p&gt;Le patriarcat ce n&apos;est pas une histoire de m&#xe9;chancet&#xe9; ou de gentillesse, ce n&apos;est pas une histoire d&apos;individus et d&apos;individues. C&apos;est un SYSTEME dont nous faisons tou-te-s partie. C&apos;est un syst&#xe8;me qui divise l&apos;humanit&#xe9; en une cat&#xe9;gorie dominante, la classe des hommes, et une cat&#xe9;gorie domin&#xe9;e, la classe des femmes. &lt;br /&gt;&#xe7;a ne veut pas dire qu&apos;aucune femme n&apos;a jamais fait souffrir un homme. &#xe7;a ne veut pas dire qu&apos;aucun homme ne peut d&#xe9;fendre un projet de soci&#xe9;t&#xe9; f&#xe9;ministe, qu&apos;il n&apos;existe pas d&apos;hommes pr&#xea;ts &#xe0; lutter contre leur construction masculine de dominants et &#xe0; renoncer &#xe0; leurs privil&#xe8;ges masculins, ou qu&apos;il n&apos;existe pas d&apos;hommes &amp;quot;gentils&amp;quot;. &#xe7;a ne veut pas dire que les hommes sont tous heureux de vivre dans ce syst&#xe8;me, ni qu&apos;ils y ont un r&#xe9;el int&#xe9;r&#xea;t - &#xe0; mes yeux, les dominants comme les domin&#xe9;es sont ali&#xe9;n&#xe9;s par le patriarcat, et nous gagnerions tou-te-s &#xe0; l&apos;achever, hommes et femmes. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Le patriarcat ce n&apos;est pas &amp;quot;il y a des hommes absolument infects avec les femmes&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;Le patriarcat, c&apos;est : les hommes, infects ou pas infects, en moyenne, gagnent un salaire beaucoup plus &#xe9;lev&#xe9; que les femmes, en moyenne, pour le m&#xea;me travail, le m&#xea;me nombre d&apos;heures, et la m&#xea;me qualification. (et pour obtenir les m&#xea;mes jobs, les m&#xea;mes nombres d&apos;heures, et les m&#xea;mes qualifications que les hommes, les femmes ont d&#xe9;j&#xe0; ram&#xe9;.) parmi ces hommes qui gagnent plus d&apos;argent que les femmes de leur entreprise, il y en a certainement des tr&#xe8;s gentils. Mais tous ont ce privil&#xe8;ge simplement parce qu&apos;ils sont des hommes, pas parce qu&apos;ils m&#xe9;ritent plus, ou travaillent mieux. Et ce privil&#xe8;ge, qui d&#xe9;coule exclusivement de leur appartenance au groupe dominant de ce syst&#xe8;me, leur rend la vie plus facile aux d&#xe9;pends des femmes.&lt;br /&gt;l&apos;in&#xe9;galit&#xe9; de salaire n&apos;est pas le seul exemple &#xe9;videmment, mais c&apos;est un exemple tr&#xe8;s clair et tr&#xe8;s concret que, infect ou pas infect, gentil ou pas gentil, les hommes partent dans le monde avec une longueur d&apos;avance. Il ne s&apos;agit pas de leur en vouloir ou de les d&#xe9;tester, mais d&apos;abolir leurs privil&#xe8;ges. &lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Sat, 04 Jul 2009 21:05:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Butch is a Noun</title><dc:creator>i_m_so_excited</dc:creator><link>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/07/03/14280303.html</link><category>ButchFemme</category><category>In English</category><category>LGBTQI</category><category>Politics</category><category>Queer</category><comments>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/07/03/14280303.html#comments</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/feeds/rss/comments/post/14280303/</wfw:commentRss><guid isPermaLink="true">http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/07/03/14280303.html</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;I know what butch is.
Butches are not beginner FTMs, except that sometimes they are, but it’s
not a continuum except when it is. Butch is not a trans identity unless
the butch in questions says it is, in which case it is, unless the
tranny in question says it isn’t, in which case it’s not. There is no
such thing as butch flight, no matter what the femmes or elders say,
unless saying that invalidates the opinion of femmes in a sexist
fashion or the opinions of elders in an ageist fashion. Or if they’re
right. But they are not, because butch and transgender are the same
thing with different names, except that butch is not a trans identity,
unless it is; see above.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; - S. Bear Bergman, from “I Know What Butch Is,” the first chapter from hir book Butch Is A Noun.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Encore une fois, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.entrailles.fr/index.php?post/Femmes-liberees&quot;&gt;un article excellent&lt;/a&gt; sur &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.entrailles.fr/&quot;&gt;ce site&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;Lisez-le, &#xe7;a vous changera des conneries racistes qu&apos;on nous d&#xe9;bite en ce moment. &lt;br /&gt;Non, la burqa n&apos;est pas le marqueur d&apos;oppression sexiste supr&#xea;me, et l&apos;islam n&apos;a pas l&apos;apanage du patriarcat, et les femmes musulmanes ne sont pas plus opprim&#xe9;es par leurs maris et par leur culture que les autres femmes.&lt;br /&gt;Non, les hommes blancs h&#xe9;t&#xe9;ros de droite de notre gouvernement, et les m&#xe9;dias de d&#xe9;sinformation de masse de notre pays ne se mettent pas soudainement &#xe0; d&#xe9;fendre les droits des femmes sans raison - il ne s&apos;agit encore une fois de rien d&apos;autre que d&apos;instrumentaliser les questions de femmes &#xe0; des fins racistes. &lt;br /&gt;Non, on ne peut pas lib&#xe9;rer les gens contre leur volont&#xe9;. Que les femmes qui choisissent de porter la burqa soient actrices de leur propre oppression, c&apos;est possible, et elles ne sont pas les seules dans ce cas. Mais tant qu&apos;elles ne choisiront pas de l&apos;enlever, les y forcer est stupide. Interdire &#xe0; une femme majeure de faire quelque chose qu&apos;elle dit faire par choix, et qui ne porte pas de pr&#xe9;judice &#xe0; autrui, c&apos;est faire acte de sexisme et de paternalisme, c&apos;est la traiter comme une mineure perp&#xe9;tuelle. Seules les opprim&#xe9;s peuvent lutter efficacement contre l&apos;oppression - &amp;quot;Ne me lib&#xe9;rez pas, je m&apos;en charge&amp;quot;. Ne me faites pas dire ce que je ne dis pas, l&apos;autonomie des luttes, &#xe7;a ne veut pas dire que le f&#xe9;minisme n&apos;est l&apos;affaire que des femmes, ou qu&apos;il n&apos;y a rien que les blancs puissent faire contre le racisme. &lt;br /&gt;Une chose est sure, c&apos;est qu&apos;on ne r&#xe9;soudra pas un probl&#xe8;me profond, comme l&apos;oppression globale et multiforme d&apos;une moiti&#xe9; de la population mondiale par l&apos;autre, en en interdisant l&apos;un des innombrables sympt&#xf4;mes.&lt;br /&gt;&#xe7;a me rend triste de voir tant de monde tomber dans le pi&#xe8;ge et se laisser avoir par Sarko aussi facilement. Heureusement qu&apos;il y en a qui r&#xe9;fl&#xe9;chissent. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;En m&apos;arr&#xea;tant dans un magazin de journaux je vois que le #3 de &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.brindecausette.fr/&quot;&gt;Causette&lt;/a&gt; est sorti. J&apos;avais d&#xe9;j&#xe0; feuillet&#xe9; les deux pr&#xe9;c&#xe9;dents. La couverture du premier montrait la photo d&apos;une femme qui exhibe ses seins &#xe0; la gueule d&apos;un flic, et l&apos;un des articles &#xe9;tait un portrait pas trop victimisant d&apos;une vieille pute. Pas de r&#xe9;gimes, pas de cr&#xe8;mes anti-&#xe2;ge, pas de blabla psycho. Je l&apos;avais pas achet&#xe9;, c&apos;&#xe9;tait un peu cher pour moi. Mais quand j&apos;ai vu que l&apos;Edito de ce mois-ci d&#xe9;nonce le paternalisme de la psychose actuelle sur le voile int&#xe9;gral et compare ce dernier &#xe0; l&apos;&#xe9;pilation int&#xe9;grale obligatoire - le poil &#xe9;tant le th&#xe8;me du dossier de ce num&#xe9;ro - j&apos;ai d&#xe9;cid&#xe9; de l&apos;acheter. J&apos;ai commenc&#xe9; &#xe0; le feuilleter, c&apos;est un poil h&#xe9;t&#xe9;ronorm&#xe9; par moments, et un peu mod&#xe9;r&#xe9; sur le f&#xe9;minisme pour pas faire trop peur &#xe0; la lectrice, mais je ne peux que soutenir l&apos;initiative. Le mot f&#xe9;ministe appara&#xee;t sur la couverture ! &#xe7;a parle de contraception ! &#xe7;a critique l&apos;ultralib&#xe9;ralisme et les politiques s&#xe9;curitaires ! En plus le num&#xe9;ro de ce mois-ci est sans publicit&#xe9;, &#xe7;a repose les yeux.

La LGL (Lithuanian Gay League) n&apos;a jamais &#xe9;t&#xe9; autoris&#xe9;e a organiser de
Pride ni aucun &#xe9;v&#xe8;nement &#xe0; Vilnius, la capitale. Le parlement de Lituanie vient de voter une loi sur la &#xab;protection des
mineurs&#xbb; qui interdit dans le pays toute repr&#xe9;sentation positive des relations homosexuelles, bisexuelles ou polygames. 67 d&#xe9;put&#xe9;s ont vot&#xe9; pour, trois contre, et quatre
se sont abstenus. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ilga-europe.org/europe/news/lithuanian_parliament_bans_propaganda_of_homosexuality_and_bisexuality&quot;&gt;Plus d&apos;infos ici&lt;/a&gt;. Il faut faire quelque chose !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Au m&#xea;me moment aux Pays-Bas, o&#xf9; les gays et les lesbiennes ont pourtant le droit de se marier, semble souffler un vent r&#xe9;actionnaire. Le gouvernement avait consult&#xe9; le Conseil d&apos;Etat apr&#xe8;s un licenciement survenu il y a quelques mois dans une &#xe9;cole protestante. Celui-ci vient de rendre son avis : les &#xe9;coles protestantes n&#xe9;erlandaises ont le droit licencier les enseignants
et les pasteurs qui ont des relations homosexuelles, m&#xea;me si cela ne sort pas du cadre de
leur vie priv&#xe9;e. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.lemonde.fr/europe/article/2009/06/12/aux-pays-bas-les-gays-sont-indesirables-dans-les-ecoles-protestantes_1206148_3214.html&quot;&gt;Un article ici&lt;/a&gt;. C&apos;est maintenant aux d&#xe9;put&#xe9;s qu&apos;il revient d&apos;examiner l&apos;avis du conseil. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;En France le don du sang n&apos;est toujours pas ouvert aux p&#xe9;d&#xe9;s, malgr&#xe9; le manque de dons qui pourraient sauver des vies. &lt;a href=&quot;http://dondusang.tout-e-s.org/?petition=1&quot;&gt;Signer la p&#xe9;tition&lt;/a&gt;. Le sang donn&#xe9; est syst&#xe9;matiquement test&#xe9;, c&apos;est donc par souci de rentabilit&#xe9; et non de s&#xe9;curit&#xe9; que cette politique discriminatoire est maintenue (malgr&#xe9; les effets d&apos;annonce de Bachelot qui avait promis son arr&#xea;t). Les m&#xe9;decins de l&apos;EFS avec qui j&apos;ai eu l&apos;occasion de discuter de la question ont r&#xe9;pondu &amp;quot;on ne va pas prendre le sang de gens qui passent leur temps &#xe0; jouer dans leur caca&amp;quot; et des choses du m&#xea;me genre.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://mostrans.wordpress.com/&quot;&gt;Le premier festival trans et intersex d&apos;Espagne&lt;/a&gt; a commenc&#xe9; aujourd&apos;hui. Il dure jusqu&apos;au 26 juin, &#xe0; Barcelone. Films espagnols, fran&#xe7;ais, argentins, am&#xe9;ricains, cor&#xe9;ens, turcs... Certains acteurs et r&#xe9;alisateurs seront pr&#xe9;sents. Et c&apos;est GRATUIT !!! &lt;/p&gt;

TWO NEW DICKS I BOUGHT FOR MY BOYFRIEND&apos;S BIRTHDAY ! &lt;br /&gt;
One pink (to replace the old one who was tired), one black. &lt;br /&gt;
They&apos;re so beautiful ! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://store.babeland.com/dildos-lifelike/mr-bendy-pink&quot;&gt;Mr Bendy&lt;/a&gt;, also known as Silky, is exactly the right size for me, and
incredibly soft. It&apos;s a pack&amp;amp;play, or hardpack, which means you can
both use it for penetrative sex and as a packer. It&apos;s also perfect for oral sex, and especially deep throat. I LOVE IT ! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I&apos;ve been wondering about my life, and I haven&apos;t been so well. I&apos;ve
been taking anxiety medication and considering maybe going into
psychoanalysis. &lt;br /&gt;
But then that raises many questions, like will shrinks ever tell you
anything else than what they learnt in books written by a straight white
man strongly influenced by judeo-christian mentality and full of
heteronormative and misogynistic/homophobic prejudices (either Freud,
Jung or Lacan) ? how can I find a shrink who is BDSM-friendly,
queer-friendly, polyamory-friendly AND sexwork-friendly in this city ? &lt;br /&gt;
Anyway. I need to find a way out of my codependance issues, my
affective neediness and insecurity, and other problems. I have started
to take some steps towards taking better care of myself, and not
indulging too much in parts of me that hurt me and others. Strategies when I feel anxiety coming, to make it less hard on me and others. I&apos;m quite
proud that I&apos;m so strong and that I&apos;m still able to be happy after all this time.&lt;br /&gt;
My relationship is getting better too, and that also makes me feel better. What
makes me feel really good is how much thought we give to it, how hard we
try to find better ways of communicating, etc - and how successful it&apos;s
been these days. I have a great partner. I love talking about a lot of things with him, politics and TV-series and our friends and sex and our relationship and parties and how my day went and how I love him and just anything. It feels good to be doing something else than fighting or having sex - not that I mind the sex. This morning&apos;s quickie before you went to work... Breathtaking. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The summer, and my therefore outrageously sexy outfits, seem to make
guys think they have a right to talk to me, comment on how I look, or
even grab me and grope me, when I&apos;m walking in the streets. &lt;br /&gt;
Yesterday I was literally harassed by men in the streets - stared at,
&amp;quot;complimented&amp;quot;, whistled at, approached, physically threatened, and,
yes, grabbed and groped. &lt;br /&gt;On a night like that one, no matter how many times you assault me, I&apos;ll
fight back, I&apos;ll chase you on my high heels, screaming &amp;quot;what makes you
think you have a right to touch me ?&amp;quot;, I&apos;ll stride the streets and feel
fierce and powerful, I won&apos;t lower my eyes when I pass you by, and I
won&apos;t stop wearing what I want to wear and going out late
at night on my own in so-called dangerous areas.&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe the fact that I was feeling better and more open to others, has
something to do with how many times they tried to make me feel that I was there for them to see and that they owned me. I had been such a socialite at the burlesque
party and I had felt so happy to be around people. And then maybe when I left the party I forgot to protect myself from the outside world, I was just euphoric and smily, and the guys thought it was sexual seduction aimed at them, which it was not. I am vulnerable, and I don&apos;t want to harden, I don&apos;t want to wear an armour. I want to let you reach me, I want to let your bullets pierce through my skin. That&apos;s the only way I can make your love pierce through it too. If my skin gets thick and tough, nothing will get in me anymore. &lt;br /&gt;So I am like a Christian martyr, trusting them forever, giving them still another chance not to disappoint me. Always answering them when they ask for directions, a lighter, a cigarette, even if it might just be an excuse to talk to me and then become annoying. Always with a bright smile and as much charity as I can. Always offering help even when I&apos;m not asked anything. Cheerful, warm, open. I know some of them are bad, and it will hurt all the more that I had decided to trust them and give them the opportunity of showing me they&apos;re good. If they abuse my trust, if they decide to hurt me although they knew I wasn&apos;t defiant - I was as trustful as a child - it will damage me. But if they prove me right, if they see me being so good and naive and open and don&apos;t take advantage of it, it will make me all the more thankful, it will give me more strength to keep believing in people and loving them and having this cheesy Christian humanism. [Where the fuck did I get that from ? please don&apos;t believe I&apos;m writing all of this without distance and irony. I&apos;m obviously aware that it is weird, fucked up, laughable, simplistic, childish, manichean. However it&apos;s also how I know myself to think sometimes] &lt;br /&gt;This is also, I think, what is at stake in the emotions I feel in BDSM. &lt;br /&gt;I give you all the power. To me it&apos;s not a scene, not a game, it&apos;s not play. I don&apos;t act. I get into a space, a space of weakness and
trust, which is a part of me, not a character. I put myself in a position where I&apos;d let you rape or kill me - and you don&apos;t. I give you power to abuse me and you use it for my pleasure, not just yours - although you know I&apos;m so submissive at that moment I might not even resent you abusing me. And that, giving up all the control, giving you so much of myself, giving you power to hurt me, and knowing you will only use it with love and respect : that is what makes me so incredibly thankful after a BDSM scene. That is what brings me so close to tears during aftercare. I love you for not hurting me, for how good you are to me. For how you let me be an open, trusting, innocent, vulnerable, welcoming person, without punishing me or abusing me. &lt;br /&gt;It&apos;s always seemed such a horrible thing to me, how good people become hard and bad because there is this social pressure, this norm of defiance and distrust and selfishness. Kind people are always punished for being kind and they&apos;re either killed, or made to harden. Kindness is regarded as weakness, trust as naiveness.&lt;br /&gt;I like to hitchhike, I like to ask strangers a favor, I like to give people the possibility to reject me, so that they also have a possibility to accept me. I like to give people an opportunity to show the best that they have.&lt;br /&gt;Ok this was written all in one piece and I didn&apos;t re-read it or try to make it consistent and understandable and well-written - like almost everything I write here, by the way. I had an appointment with the shrink, I didn&apos;t go. I wrote this instead. It&apos;s some sort of a confession, not an argumentative well-thought-of, well-worked-on, logically-structured text - so don&apos;t read it or criticize it as such. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My wisdom teeth are growing and it HURTS ! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In less than a month, I&apos;m going on a European tour with several other girls. We&apos;ll perform in Berlin, Brussels, Paris, Copenhagen, Stockholm... I&apos;m excited and scared at the same time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And in August I&apos;ll be in San Francisco !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are so many things I want to write about on this blog. Interesting, theoretical, political things. &lt;br /&gt;And instead I find myself talking about my life. Oh well, it&apos;s fine too. &lt;br /&gt;Alright. That&apos;s all for now. &lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Thu, 18 Jun 2009 16:33:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Art &amp; Culture</title><dc:creator>i_m_so_excited</dc:creator><link>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/06/18/14127906.html</link><category>En Fran&#xe7;ais</category><category>Events</category><category>Sexwork</category><comments>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/06/18/14127906.html#comments</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/feeds/rss/comments/post/14127906/</wfw:commentRss><guid isPermaLink="true">http://imsoexcited.canalblog.com/archives/2009/06/18/14127906.html</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;Ce soir (jeudi 18 juin) vernissage de l&apos;expo Weird &amp;amp; Wonderful, dans le cadre du &lt;a href=&quot;%20http://www.myspace.com/jerkoffestival&quot;&gt;JerkOff festival&lt;/a&gt;. 19h, &#xe0; la galerie Loft 19 - Suzanne Tarasi&#xe8;ve, passage de l&apos;Atlas, m&#xe9;tro Belleville. &lt;/p&gt;

What this guy is saying isn&apos;t so insulting really - I understand his point, and even if he was really insulting me and didn&apos;t have a point, it&apos;s not a big deal either. Just a pornblogger using his freedom of speech on the Internet, not harming anyone. It&apos;s just late at night, I had three exams today and I have another one tomorrow and I should be working on it, and so I found a way to procrastinate by answering that guy. It made me angry though, how he&apos;s making such a clich&#xe9; of me, and what he says is not fair. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;%20http://artandporn.com/judy-minx-mix-and-a-hilarious-sasha-grey-blog/&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;http://artandporn.com/judy-minx-mix-and-a-hilarious-sasha-grey-blog/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;----&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hey, &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m Judy Minx, and I&apos;ve been a porn actress for two years now. &lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m not an existentialist, and I am not a philosophy student at the Sorbonne. &lt;br /&gt;I do have North African blood though - you got that one right. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My thoughts about sexwork are NOT excuses to legitimize my career. I actually say on several occasions in articles of my blog that the political and theoretical aspects of sexwork are NOT the reason why I do porn. I do porn because porn is the best way, or at least the most suitable to my skills, tastes and needs, that I have found to make money - I do my job for just about the same reasons that most people do their jobs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The reason why I write about the theoretical and political aspects of sexwork are NOT because it&apos;s &amp;quot;hip&amp;quot; either. I write about them because I am and have always been interested in non-conventional sexual choices - sex for money, kinky / BDSM sex, and queer sex. How and why the people who make these choices are oppressed minorities. This is what I talk and think about most. Sometimes I use &amp;quot;pseudo-intellectual language&amp;quot; to write about that and maybe it&apos;s because I&apos;ve been told that sex isn&apos;t a serious matter or cannot be intelligently and rationally discussed, that I over-compensate with academic language. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&apos;t mind that you prefer the anal shots - fair enough. I am glad that people watch my porn and jerk off to it. That is what it&apos;s for. As I&apos;ve written on my blog too : I don&apos;t make porn that has huge subtitles saying &amp;quot;this person is a sexworker, she is a respectable person who is intelligent and fights for political rights&amp;quot;. I make porn for people to jerk off to. Most of them won&apos;t give a fuck who I am, and what I&apos;m thinking. And it&apos;s fine. My blog is not for them. My blog is for the people who want to read it. It has happened to me sometimes to be interested in what such or such porn actress had to say. Plus, my blog doesn&apos;t only target porn-watchers like you, but also people who&apos;ve never seen my porn, and among them people who think porn is evil. In lots of articles I am trying to write for them. This pseudo-intellectual language is the only one they&apos;ll take seriously. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don&apos;t mind that you&apos;re not interested in my blog. I mind the contempt and sarcasm in your post. It&apos;s so easy to joke about it, from where you stand. You are not confronted with what it means to be asked a hundred questions a day about your job, by people who think you are either a victim of patriarchy or someone with low moral standards. There&apos;s also the people who are &amp;quot;just curious&amp;quot; and can&apos;t help asking intrusive questions. You are not the one who gets harassed by a society that thinks it&apos;s such a big deal to fuck for money. People keep telling me what I should and should not do, questioning my choices, asking me to justify myself. It gets in you. After you&apos;ve been asked the question a hundredth time, you ask yourself. You doubt. You wonder. You feel like you have to answer them, you feel that you have to find a thousand intellectual and political reasons for what you&apos;re doing, although you shouldn&apos;t have to answer more questions than any other person who&apos;s working any job. &lt;br /&gt;You know what ? I&apos;d like it to be so easy and widely accepted, that I wouldn&apos;t have to ask myself these questions. Mostly, my blogposts about porn and sexwork were not written spontaneously, out of the blue: they were written as answers to questions I was asked, to someone who called me anti-feminist, to someone who said they pitied me. This text I&apos;m writing right now will end up on my blog. I&apos;m angry that you&apos;re making fun of how I&apos;m made to think about this all the time. Seriously, I&apos;m tired of it too. But as long as most people will think sex can&apos;t be work, I&apos;ll feel it&apos;s my mission to explain that yes, it&apos;s my job, and I&apos;m a worker.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;---------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dans le m&#xea;me registre :&lt;br /&gt;je r&#xe9;ponds &#xe0; un commentaire d&apos;un mec qui dit que &lt;a href=&quot;http://therumpus.net/2009/02/an-oral-history-of-kink/&quot;&gt;l&apos;enfance malheureuse de la pauvre Lorelei Lee&lt;/a&gt; explique pourquoi elle a choisi de devenir actrice porno qui est &#xe9;videmment un job dans lequel elle se fait exploiter par des mafieux. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Similar situation : &lt;br /&gt;I answer to a comment written by a guy who thinks &lt;a href=&quot;http://therumpus.net/2009/02/an-oral-history-of-kink/&quot;&gt;poor Lorelei Lee&apos;s unhappy childhood&lt;/a&gt; explains why she chose to become a porn actress, which is obviously a job in which she gets terribly exploited by evil pimps.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Hey dumbass, what about YOUR life ?&lt;br /&gt;
Was your life a happy life ?&lt;br /&gt;
Has one single person ever tried to explain to you that the reasons why
you chose the job you’re working are linked to childhood traumas ? What about a person you’d never seen or talked to ? What about a hundred people you’d never seen or talked to ? What about a thousand ?&lt;br /&gt;
THAT is abuse. The way we as porn actresses can’t get a fucking break from amateur psychoanalyses.&lt;br /&gt;
%@$# dammit it pisses me off !&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Talking about powerful women in porn, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.madisonbound.com/&quot;&gt;Madison Young has a brand new website&lt;/a&gt; and it&apos;s amazing ! &lt;br /&gt;And it was designed by another powerful porn woman, &lt;a href=&quot;http://courtneytrouble.com/&quot;&gt;Courtney Trouble&lt;/a&gt; !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-----&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And finally, I wanted to share this great quote with you : &lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;If you can&apos;t be a good example, then you&apos;ll just have to be a terrible warning&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently it&apos;s Catherine Aird who said it, I have no idea who that is and I won&apos;t research it now. &lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Fri, 12 Jun 2009 00:05:00 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
