Geraldo

Me in my Fox News makeup after shooting an interview for Geraldo at Large

In a weird twist of irony, I was treated better by Fox News than I have been treated by any other media - no prying personal questions, just questions pertaining to my areas of expertise. I was actually treated like an expert instead of like a dumb ho. This, of course, could very well be the result of minimal research they did on me or the narrow focus of the segment I was interviewed for (women using the internet to hook up), and not Fox’s respect for women and expressions of female sexuality (haha), but - it was good.

It was also the first interview I’ve done in any kind of recent memory in which I did not talk about sex work. Although of course this piece will be a bit salacious in its own right, its really amazing how different that struggle for dignity is when I’m being interviewed about sex and not sex work. Being interviewed by a woman (sadly, I did not get interviewed by Geraldo himself) also puts a different spin on things, because when I’m being interviewed by a man, even/especially a man who disapproves, there is always that weird thought of “this chick might totally do me” that I can see running through his brain.

Deep-thinking aside, I got interviewed in Geraldo’s office and did something t-shirt slogan worthy: I checked out Craigslist casual encounters on Geraldo’s computer. Now is that totally awesome or what?

The segment I was interviewed for won’t be airing tonight - it’ll be on either tomorrow night or the following Sunday (3/18). Either way I’ll be able to get the footage, digitize it and upload it to the mighty internet for your enjoyment, though it might take a while. I’ll post about when it airs as soon as I know.

Dudes, seriously, I am going to be on Geraldo at Large tomorrow night. 8 pm EST on Fox News.

Me and the moustache are going to be talking about hooking up and the Internet.

I promise I’ll tell you all about it afterwards.
