Escort Gets Robbed, Reports It, Gets Outed

May 6th, 2009 at 11:16 am

I couldn’t help but bring attention to this article in the Providence Journal, which was emailed to me this morning by a Speak Up participant: Man charged with assaulting escort [link redacted to protect the escort, do a search of the Providence Journal or email me for the full link].
Here’s a snippet from the article. […]


I Am a Sex Worker: Video and Audio PSA

April 29th, 2009 at 10:21 am

There were a lot of things I loved about doing the Speak Up! training, but I am really excited about this public service announcement. I had the idea for this video last year but hadn’t had the opportunity to see it through until the media training. It’s just a minute long - check it […]


Naked City Nostalgia (My Fave Videos)

April 10th, 2009 at 10:12 am

Last night when I dug up the Naked City TV episode about Sex 2.0 I sat and watched a bunch of episodes of the show, and it made me feel all nostalgic about making the show and writing the Naked City blog for the Village Voice. It was a year ago this week that Naked […]


Spitzer-versary: Reflections on a Sex Work Scandal

March 8th, 2009 at 10:13 pm

I’m mentioning this at both the beginning of this post and the end: Tuesday, March 10th is the deadline for the Sex Work Awareness workshop Speak Up! Media Training for the Empowered Sex Worker. If you’re a current or former sex worker in the NYC area (or can get here) and are interested in a […]


Audacia on CNN (old clip from March)

May 16th, 2008 at 1:18 am

I finally got my hands on the clip of me on CNN Prime News from March 13th. In case you don’t recall, I got a call to do a segment on CNN Prime News. This was the day after “Eliot Spitzer’s call girl” - quotes because, what, he owns her? - got outed. The interview […]


Both sides of the camera: story subject, story maker

May 14th, 2008 at 12:46 pm

As you might be able to tell from the radio silence here on Waking Vixen for the past bunch of weeks, I’ve been busy pursuing other stuff. That other stuff is primarily in the form of writing posts and shooting video for Naked City, though there’s other stuff in the works too (teaching my first […]


Notes for my Sex 2.0 Keynote

April 14th, 2008 at 10:50 am

Since I wrote my book “Naked on the Internet,” one of the questions I get asked in just about every interview is: how did you get interested in this topic? And sometimes I draw a total blank when I try to respond, or I just want to say, “duh – cuz it’s awesome.”
But the answer […]


Feminism, sex work, and the pink ghetto I made for myself

March 31st, 2008 at 8:18 pm

This weekend, as you may have notice from my obsessive live blogging and tweeting, I was at the Women, Action and the Media conference in Cambridge. As I’ve blogged about previously, I was pretty anxious about diving into the belly of the feminist beast. I identified myself as a feminist long before I was a […]
