Yeah. So um Zoila and Angela of 20 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: Word Agency. UM. They are involved in entertainment and events. UM. 21 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: They represent different talent. UM. The first time that we 22 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 1: ever went to anyone of their events, they actually hosted 23 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: a show for Tony Perralta here at the Mexican Consulate 24 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, so that was them and they brought 25 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,919 Speaker 1: him in his art out here. And um, this week, 26 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: Biosa and I we were really fortunate enough to be 27 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: invited by Zoila and Angela to go to the screening 28 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: at the Landmark Theater and why l A UM for 29 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: a new John Singleton series called Snowfall, premiering on f 30 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 1: X yes on July fit so this Wednesday. Yeah, UM, 31 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 1: and it was really good. It was, of course just 32 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: the pilot and they had the whole cast there, so 33 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: that was really cool. They did a Q and they 34 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: did a Q and a UM, and it's it's such 35 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: a good show. I mean, the pilot was so good 36 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: because it really captures l A in the eighties. UM, 37 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: and it looks like it's super authentic at least to me, 38 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: Like it's how I picture l A to look like 39 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: back then, it's how it looks like now. So I 40 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: really I thought it was. It was really authentic, and 41 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: John Singleton has a way of doing that with Los Angeles. Yeah, 42 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: he knows how to make movies about l A because 43 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: he's from l A. So he understands l exactly. Um, 44 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: a lot of people in the entertainment industry are not 45 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: from Hollywood or not from California. Discussing that afterwards, Yeah, 46 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: you know, people come to Hollywood, people come to l 47 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: A from all over the world to be in the 48 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: entertainment industry. So me, you know the Alsa and I 49 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: haven't grown up in Los Angeles. Being natives of Los Angeles. 50 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: It's odd and it's difficult to find people who are 51 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: from here sometimes, you know. So it's cool when you 52 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: do have a director who's born and bred in l A. UM. 53 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: He came out of USC Film School, and he creates 54 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: narratives that really are cemented in the black experience in 55 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. It's hard to find and it's also the 56 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: work is amazing. So check out Snowfall on ffx UM. 57 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: And also about that premiere, I was I was geeked. 58 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: I was out of my I was excited. It was 59 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: so funny. We spotted some some people there. Well, I 60 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: um Love, Love and Hip Hop.

We were shocked he 69 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: was there because he had just basically gotten jumped like 70 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: on Twitter and he was getting dragged on Twitter. But 71 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: he was there. He showed up. UM saw Massika, who's 72 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: another singer and she's also on Love and Hip Hop, 73 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: so it was just fun. We also saw the actor 74 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: I don't know his name, but the actor who played 75 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: Lisa Landry's boyfriend Terrence on Sister Sister. He worked at 76 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: a grocery store in the child. He was the same, 77 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: so cute. Yeah, So it was fun.

Um, I think that in our little 114 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: friend group, we all have gone through ups and downs 115 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: with our resolution because all of us, I think, every 116 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: single one of us of the Mommy collective, we're like 117 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,280 Speaker 1: dump him two thousand seventeen, like dump them two thousand seventeen, 118 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: Like we're gonna start fresh, We're gonna be single, you know, 119 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: And we've gone through different iterations of that. You know. 120 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 1: It's been a little bit of a roller coaster ride. Yeah, 121 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: That's how it is. That's how it is. That's how 122 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: it is. Relationships are are messy and sticky. It's like 123 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 1: you do the breakup, but then it's like the you 124 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: still maybe still you get the booty call test. Yes, 125 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 1: the late night, the late night, what are you doing? 126 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: That happened to me. That happened to me a few 127 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: months ago. I like was still seeing an X and 128 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 1: all of a sudden and it was just like you know, 129 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: booty call text. And then all of a sudden, we 130 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: were at dinner together and I was like, oh my god, 131 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: we're on a date. A slippery no no, no, no, 132 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: no no. And I was like, crap, okay, well now 133 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: we're dating again, and then you have to you have 134 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: to break up again. It's a whole process. It's a 135 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: slippery fucking slope. It's a trap. It's dangerous, it's a trap. 136 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: It's a trap, like when you proceed with caution, always, always, 137 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: especially in dealing with an X, because if that person 138 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: is an ex we need to think about why exactly, 139 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, especially if we wanted to put the person 140 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: in the ex position. Cannot be that good. I don't 141 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: believe that it's that good. There's better sex out there, right, 142 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: you will find it, and we have. And that's part 143 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: of it is like releasing yourself from something that's not 144 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: working anymore, because you just have to know and believe 145 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: and trust that there is something else out there and 146 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: something better, and it'll find you. It'll find you, Yes, right, 147 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: it'll find you. You just have to live your life 148 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: the way you want to live it, the way that 149 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: it makes you you most comfortable, and then it'll happen, 150 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: will some way, somehow. Um So, as far as like 151 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: talking about multidimensional hoism, like I think that it talked 152 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: taking that term home or hoism, or we can get 153 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: really stuck into only talking about relationships, right, I'm in 154 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: a relationship or I'm not in a relationship, right, and 155 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: then what hoism means depending on either context. But I 156 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: think there's a lot more to being a multidimensional home 157 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: than just relationships exactly. So I wanted to read this 158 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: um photo that I saw Cheesemiths share, of course, that 159 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: actually is created by um somebody on Instagram. Their I 160 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: G handle is supreme bit Um. We'll we'll link it 161 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: somewhere and their name is thought Scholar, which I love. 162 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 1: So they created a graphic and we're also going to 163 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: share this on local on our Instagram and our social media. 164 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna read the definition. I love it 165 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: so much, and this is I think this is this 166 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: captures my pro hoism, right, So pro hoism one pro 167 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 1: ho derived from the more colloquial pro host. So this 168 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: is spelled differently. It's h e a u x um 169 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: spelling altered to reflect difference and refinement. Black or brown 170 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: womenist women and fem cists or trends who are pro 171 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: sex and or are sex workers and support sex worker rights, 172 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: committed to collective and personal empowerment, not just sexually but 173 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: through economic society. Sends judgment of the means radically thought 174 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: e and proud of it. And there's more to it, 175 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: but I think that is just essence, like in essence, 176 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: that's it. Yeah, you know, I actually I also want 177 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: to read the second one. Also a woman or fem 178 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: who understands the racialized nature of sexuality, one who rejects 179 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: misogyna and trans misogyna this is important, does not accept 180 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: nor engage in silently or otherwise. Transphobia, homophobia, or anti 181 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: blackness is accepting of non traditional gender expressions and not 182 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: only loves her their non binary and LGBTQ sister in 183 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: but elevates their voices and concerns. Boom, that's that's it. 184 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: Pro is um. That's pro is um in essence and 185 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: in practice like that is a politic if I have 186 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 1: ever heard of one. That's a policy. Is a politics 187 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: politics exactly, and I love it exactly. It's not just 188 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: having multiple partners, which well could be, and props to 189 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: you if that's what it is, but it could also 190 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: it's also a politics, highly political. If you're if you're 191 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: pro ho, if you're a feminist, you should be pro ho. 192 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: I agree, let's start there. Yeah, And I think that 193 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: is what is about right. We're about um talking about 194 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: things that are racialized and sexualized, right and used against us. 195 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: We want to be pro ho. We want to be 196 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: budda positive, which means that we are not supporting um, 197 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: you know, politicians and policies that are going to criminalize 198 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: and harm sex workers, trans women, right. We're not going 199 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:30,719 Speaker 1: to support movements that are exclusionary of sex workers, right, 200 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: or who are sledge shaming. We're just not going to 201 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: support those movements because we can't. It's against our politics, right, 202 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: or that are rooted in respectability, right, like how are 203 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: you going to dress? How what are you wearing today? 204 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 1: Or you know you can't show up in a meeting 205 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: in a tight dress or whatever, you know, whatever folks 206 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 1: want to say, like rooted in respectability and professionalism, We're 207 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: not here for that now, We're not here for that. 208 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: And I would also say, if you're pro ho, you're 209 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: Buddha positive, then that also means that you're not about 210 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: the victim aiming stuff, your survivor centered, because you recognize 211 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: that a person can have many sex partners, can have 212 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: sex with one person and still have the right to 213 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: say no and still have the right to consent and 214 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:15,240 Speaker 1: still be a full person who has boundaries who should 215 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: be respected. So I think that whole is m like 216 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: joined the club, you know, get with the winning team, 217 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: because if not, you know, what is your practice really 218 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: all about? Who is your work really about? Who is 219 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: your work really about? Really really? And also it's fun 220 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: to be pro ho. It is it can be very 221 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: fun to be pro ho. From getting dressed and not 222 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 1: giving a funk, taking the selfie, taking the selfies. And 223 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: we were talking about this that the I G batty, 224 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: like the Instagram batty. The selfie culture is very reminiscent 225 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways of pin up culture. I agree, right, 226 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: But you know, now we're turning the cameras on ourselves 227 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 1: as opposed to like Vargus who was painting pin ups 228 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: and like he it was his eye right of the 229 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: pin ups and of the women. But we have we're 230 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: using our own gays right to celebrate ourselves. Yeah, absolutely, 231 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: I agree. Yeah, okay, So we're gonna go into a songbreak. Actually, um, 232 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: we need to take care of some business happening in 233 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: the background, So we are going to go into a 234 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: quick songbreak or castera and and and fends and and 235 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: and and and and and fends and and and sends 236 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 1: and and and sends and and spend and spends and 237 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:13,719 Speaker 1: and um um. And we're here. So we have a 238 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: lot more to talk about because there's so much to 239 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: talk about when it comes to who is um it's beautiful, 240 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: such a rich topic. I know we could go on 241 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: for days. Um. So we want to talk about economic 242 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: equity equality, right, what is this redistribution of wealth? Absolutely? 243 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: And I think the song the song she's saying like 244 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: I want more money, want more money, I want more money, 245 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: Give me your money. D O double L A R S. 246 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 1: Y'all motherfucker's gonna pay like you have to, you will pay. Right. 247 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: Let's not forget everybody that men control men and very 248 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: specifically white men, white people in general, but men globally 249 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 1: control the wealth, control the resource is, and starve everybody. Right. 250 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: Women in the United States, uh still make what seventy 251 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: cents to the dollar. But then if you break that 252 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: down by race, right, women of color make far less, 253 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: with black women, Native women in latinas being on the 254 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: bottom end of the spectrum. So when we're talking about 255 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: sex work or being a hoe, um, getting yours from 256 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: from men or from whoever has money, whether it's men 257 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: or not, whether it's other women, a sugar person, right, Um, 258 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 1: that's economic redistribution, that's redistribution of wealth. And I'm all 259 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: for it. I agree. I am also all for it. 260 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: Give your money to women? Right. That was a really 261 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: important hashtag and social media campaign on Twitter, and I 262 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: think Lauren chief Elk was was one of the people 263 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: behind it. Um and Lauren chief Elk talked a lot 264 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: about um, you know, basically survivor issues, rape, rape culture, 265 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: rape culture embedded in policy, and she talks about, right, 266 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: give your money to women. This is about economic equity. Um, 267 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: if you're a feminist and you're a man, you should 268 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 1: be giving your money to women. I agree with you, 269 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: point blank, point blank, and that's my wholeism. Yeah. I 270 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: was at dinner not too long ago with my primos 271 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: and it was like a two bill, right, and they 272 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: picked up the tab and I was like, good, I 273 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: should pick up the tab and my primo wants to 274 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: flip it on me and says, um, you as an 275 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: independent woman, And I said, no, the least that you 276 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: men can do is pay for a meal. That is 277 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 1: the least that y'all can do. So don't try and 278 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 1: to turn that around on me, saying well, I thought 279 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: you're an independent woman. Yes I am. You can also 280 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: pay for my meal because you can exactly, and you 281 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: should write listen, I'm independent. That means my money is 282 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: independent of you. Right, My money is independent and it 283 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: comes with me. You know. Um, no, absolutely. When you 284 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: live in a in a society, a capitalist society where like, 285 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: we have no other assets, resources, we don't have property, 286 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: you know, we don't have access to the same type 287 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: of capital that men, you know, very easily have access to. 288 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: What else do we have to what else do we 289 00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: have but our bodies on ourselves. It's like the idea 290 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: like pretty as currency, pretty as currency, which Janet Mock 291 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: transgender woman activists, thinker writers, scholar um. She wrote an 292 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:41,880 Speaker 1: article recently about pretty privilege. Yeah, and how we don't 293 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: talk about what the access in space that we can 294 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: take up if you're if we're pretty, right, if you're pretty, 295 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: but we don't talk about it because it's like kind 296 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 1: of weird to take about if you're considered to be right. 297 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: But there is a privilege in it, right, absolutely, So 298 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: she has a really great article about that and yeah, 299 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: pretty as paul plitic desire, like is a politic as well. 300 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: And that's the thing. Pretty pretty is such a complicated topic, 301 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: just like hoism is a complicated talk topic to talk about. 302 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 1: And there's so much overlap and intertwined infam experience, right 303 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: because we can talk about, oh, absolutely pretty privileged and 304 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,200 Speaker 1: we have it. I have pretty privilege. I'm a pretty 305 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 1: bitch and I know I'm a pretty bitch. I'm attractive 306 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: and it's not that's not something that was high. We're 307 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: getting waived at from like people here at Espasio UM 308 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: and I know this, and one of the reasons why 309 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: we know right when when you're considered attractive or pretty 310 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 1: is because you're reminded constantly without invitation or without asking 311 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: for it. The random stranger asked, man that comes up 312 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 1: to me on the street out of nowhere to tell 313 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: me that I'm pretty? Right, And that's what she She 314 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: really breaks that down in the article because she talks 315 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 1: about how we talk about our prettiness or attractiveness whenever 316 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: it's on display, right, whenever it's, like you said, being 317 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: talked about without invitation, But we don't talk about the 318 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: access that is granted to us by being pretty, for sure. Yeah, 319 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: and I think once again this shows like how trans 320 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 1: women of color really lay the groundwork for a lot 321 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,159 Speaker 1: of our dialogues and our understandings of our experiences, of 322 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 1: our politics and of our politics. Yeah. And that's the 323 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: other thing, Like, Okay, so if we already know that economically, 324 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 1: women firms, women of color, firms of color, sex workers 325 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: of color are at an economic disadvantage even with degrees 326 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: and entering formal professions, still making less money. If I 327 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 1: have one thing that gives me access to economic opportunity, 328 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: and that's my pretty, then yes, I'm gonna I'm gonna 329 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: leverage it. I agree, I'm going to capitalize off of it. 330 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: You know, you put your degree on your resume, you 331 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: put your skills on a resume. Um, this is something 332 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: that I carry with me no matter. What I can't 333 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,920 Speaker 1: is to leave it at home. Right, So if it 334 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: gives me some type of benefit as somebody who is 335 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: of a marginalized experience, then yes, yes, And I think 336 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: that all fems, all women leverage leverage. You're pretty, Yeah, 337 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 1: why not? And I think that that also can play 338 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: into like being multidimensional. Right, So I can wear my 339 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: my whole outfit doesn't necessarily need to be like very 340 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: very revealing. It can be, and it is, but it 341 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: can also be, you know, something considered conservative. I'm still 342 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: going to be a home in this conservative dress, you 343 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like I'm multidimensional. It's not just 344 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: this black and white. There's so many nuances. And the 345 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: other thing also about like the pretty and the pretty 346 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: privilege is that people who It's not that's not necessarily 347 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 1: about attraction, right, It's more like are you fitting standards? 348 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: Social standards that say that because you look like this, 349 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,919 Speaker 1: now you're worthy of certain acts. Us are being treated 350 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: with kindness because it's not like people who are not 351 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: considered to be pretty are not It's not like people 352 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: are not attracted to those people, right, It's not about 353 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: attraction because attraction comes in a lot of different forms 354 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: and variations, you know, So someone can be pretty but 355 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: still not be attractive to another person. Absolutely, But it's 356 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: like important for us to acknowledge that, like as women 357 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: as fems, no matter what, no matter what we look like, 358 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: our looks in and of themselves, whether praised or not, 359 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: have some type of material consequence or like a consequence 360 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: as far as how we're treated.

Were considered a Christian society in a lot 493 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 1: of ways that like puritan Like the thing is there 494 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: that puritan you know, like framework is there even though 495 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: none of us like asked to be a part of 496 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: it or signed up for it. It's there and we 497 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 1: exist in it. And Amber Roses from New England, right, 498 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: and she talks about how she started dancing when she 499 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: was young, when she was a teenager, because she was 500 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: trying to help out with her family. Actually, so it's 501 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: just always crazy to me how like, you know, sex workers, strippers, 502 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: dancers are looked down on or talked down on or denigrated, um, 503 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: but like their patrons are not, you know, their customers aren't. Yeah, exactly, 504 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: And that goes back to like economy, like the content 505 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 1: who has the money has the money? Will the patrons 506 00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: do because they were the customers the men. Yeah, absolutely 507 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: that we're paying to to receive some type of entertainment 508 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: in this age, service of some sort. When i UM 509 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: this week, I did some trainings for like therapists and 510 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: professionals and law enforcement about sex trafficking and working with 511 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: survivors of sex trafficking and the red flags, the warning signs, 512 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: trauma informed care, all of that stuff. Trauma informed language important. 513 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: And one of the questions that I ask always is, 514 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: you know, why is there such a stigma placed on 515 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: sex workers, on prostitutes, on strippers. Why don't people generally 516 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: in our public think fondly or kindly about strippers? Why 517 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: do we talk badly about them? And it was interesting 518 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: because the women in the room that are professionals and 519 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: work in the field, the women in the room like 520 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: responded to that question by saying, well, I think that 521 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: in a lot of cases, women have a negative view 522 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: because our husband's, our boyfriends, our dads, um, the men 523 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: in our family are spending their money on these women. Right. 524 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: And so my question then to them was, well, why 525 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: aren't we mad at the men for spending the money 526 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 1: in a way that you don't want them to. Right? 527 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: The dancer is dancing, She's doing her job doing and 528 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: dancing literally stripping is not harmful to anyone, now, no 529 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,239 Speaker 1: one gets hurt. Yeah, Roxand Gay has a really right 530 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: um short story about this in her book Difficult Woman, 531 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: which I'm were Difficult Women which I really like, I 532 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: can't remember the name, but it's also about like following 533 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 1: like a mixed race sex worker, stripper, dancer, and like 534 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: the harassment that she faces. Right, but it's quote her job. 535 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to link that someone. Yeah. Roxane Gay has 536 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: a new book out called tonguer. Yeah, um, yeah, no, no, no, 537 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: Roxane Gay is amazing, and she's another thinker woman of 538 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: color who I think tries to tries to to talk 539 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: about sex work. Right, I would call her like a 540 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: pro holes ho. Yeah, with the pro ho lens. She 541 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: tries to talk about sex or with the pro ho lens. 542 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: And I think that's so important. I hope and like 543 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: I choose to read and learn from writers and thinkers 544 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: who are very vocally and intentionally pro ho. Yeah, absolutely, 545 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: I agree with you. Yeah, And I mean we can 546 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: talk about a couple more of our hospirations. Right, So 547 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: we talked about Ambrose. Um, we we've mentioned now Roxanne 548 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: Gay also um little known. But also if you're on 549 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: social media a lot, maybe you've you've you've had this 550 00:32:54,720 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: conversation before. But another hospiration is um Maya Angelou. Yes, 551 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: Maya Angelou. Um everything that she was poet, author, scholar, academic, 552 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 1: creative artist, She was also a sex worker. She was 553 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: formerly a sex worker. She was formerly an exotic dancer, 554 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: and that piece of her is not really spoken about 555 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: by people who write about Maya Angelou or people who 556 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: write biographies on her. Even trying to find the source 557 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 1: was difficult. But Maya Angelou in her interviews, she and 558 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,479 Speaker 1: in her poetry, she talks about how she worked as 559 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: a sex worker. She talked about you know those experiences 560 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: in in pretty plain language, and so I am you know, 561 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: uh love Tumbler. Yes, before Twitter, there was tumbler. You know, 562 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 1: Tumbler Like there's all this critical analysis, there's all this 563 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: history on there, um. And I really appreciate the space 564 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: that tumbler has provided for women of color, firms of color, 565 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: queer folk, queer folk, sex worker, my, my queer friends. 566 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: They there's a community because I talk about like I 567 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: G community, right, but they talk about their Toddler queer community. 568 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: And that's so that's a whole different lens exactly. So anyways, 569 00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 1: are big source that we have here. We have a couple. 570 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: We have a tumbler called stripper Notes dot tumbler dot com. 571 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: UM a blog by a stripper for strippers. And UM. 572 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: In this post that was I think either written or 573 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: shared by Miss and dream Mermaid. UM, they talk about, 574 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, when Maya Angelu died, when she passed away. 575 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: Um she died at the age of eighty six. UM 576 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 1: that the the author of this post is asking of 577 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 1: all of her accolades and the details of her life. 578 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: Why is it that so often UM her history as 579 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: a sex workers is left out, always and overlooked, And 580 00:34:55,200 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: so this author writes this um we can once again 581 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: boil it down to respectability, politics, and stigma. I am 582 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 1: angry about it. I find myself ruminating, considering wondering if 583 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: her work had been talked about as much as her 584 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: dancing with James Baldwin, or even her considerable, commanding and 585 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: lovely height of six feet what would the sex work 586 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 1: community look like today if we had talked about her 587 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: wonderful compassion for sex workers, how she never looked down 588 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: on them, and her refusal to be intimidated by invasive 589 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 1: and obnoxious questioning about her sex working past. What would 590 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: sex workers around the world be saying today in her 591 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: memory of her life? Instead, we read post after post, obituary, 592 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 1: obituary after tribute calling her a pimp and saying she 593 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: had an unsuccessful stint as a prostitute. The most detailed 594 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: accounts currently online are making sure to emphasize that she 595 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: spent a brief stint, a short time in the sex industry, 596 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: so as to without explicit words solidify the shame they 597 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,399 Speaker 1: believe she should have felt, the shame we should feel 598 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: as well. The media uses inflammatory terms to get clicks 599 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 1: and to emphasize the terrible and shameful secret that was 600 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: in actuality never a secret at all. Dr Angelou herself 601 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: says she was never ashamed. Quoting Dr Angelou, I wrote 602 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 1: about my experiences because I thought too many people will 603 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: tell young folks I never did anything wrong. Who me, never? 604 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: I I have no skeletons in my closet. In fact, 605 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: I have no closet. They lie like that, and then 606 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: young people find themselves in situations and they think, damn, 607 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,360 Speaker 1: I must be a pretty bad guy. My mom or 608 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,239 Speaker 1: dad never did anything wrong. They can't forgive themselves and 609 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,479 Speaker 1: go on with their lives. So I wrote the book 610 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: Gathered Together in My Name about my past as a 611 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: sex worker. UM. And My Angelou was also famous for saying, 612 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: very plainly, she had this really important quote, there are 613 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:55,320 Speaker 1: many ways to prostitute oneself, right, and so UM, I 614 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: think it's so important to talk about my Angelou and 615 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: her history as a sex worker in action, and because 616 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 1: of all of her other incredible work, you know, and 617 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 1: it's true. There are many ways to prostitute oneself. Yeah, yeah, 618 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 1: not just by selling one's body absolutely, um. And who else? 619 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 1: Who are are other inspirations? Um? We talked about Also 620 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 1: Sylvia Rivera we did, yes, so um we we found 621 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:31,800 Speaker 1: this article. Yeah, so Sylvia Rivera, she was a trans 622 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 1: woman of color sex worker UM lead the Stone Wall 623 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: riots along with Marsha P. Johnson and other another trans 624 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 1: queer folks that were there, um but really founded like 625 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 1: the QTPO liberation movement that was and later pushed out 626 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: by gay mainstream movements essentially um. Yeah. So also like 627 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 1: we can't talk about lgbt Q movement history without talking 628 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: about Sylvie Rivera and right, and so we we found 629 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: this article UM that was published on Broadly, which is 630 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: like the women's portion of Vice. UM and the author 631 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: Leonie rotoriic um didn't interview UM with a sex worker 632 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 1: by the name of Juno mac and UM. Juno talks 633 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: about how sex workers historically have been at the forefront 634 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 1: of a lot of movements and pushes for equality and 635 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 1: even you know, UM, citing resistance in the against the 636 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: prison industrial complex, in opposition to police violence and boarders 637 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 1: UM and the fight for drug decriminalization. Right, and so 638 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: this article also talks about UM the LGBT movement even 639 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 1: being hesitant to acknowledge and include sex workers and the 640 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: role of sex workers, and the role of queer sex 641 00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: workers such as Sylvia Rivera Right, who was a transgender 642 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 1: sex worker UM and was so important in that history. 643 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 1: You know. So I think that when we talk also 644 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: about women's health, yes, about women's health, about our right 645 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 1: to a decent wage, I think that historically that sex 646 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 1: workers have been involved in those movements as well, right 647 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 1: for pay, quality, for pay in general, because sex work 648 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: is something that is criminalized and stigmatized. So how can 649 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 1: you have pay equality in that type of a situation. Yeah, so, 650 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: access to safe working conditions, access to healthcare, all of that, 651 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:42,320 Speaker 1: all of that is important, all of that, And I 652 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: guess like for us, why do we identify, why do 653 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 1: we take on the pro ho Why is that our politic? 654 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 1: Why do we use that term how or reclaim it 655 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: or puta whatever it is that you like to call yourself, right, 656 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: why do we use those terms? You know, thinking about 657 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 1: it right now. So, prior to you know, ViOS f 658 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,720 Speaker 1: M Right, I was for a hot minute on Instagram. 659 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: I was yeah, and I think um, creating that I 660 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 1: think came from a survivor standpoint. Right around that time, 661 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 1: I was like recovering from a sexual assault, um and 662 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: a lot of things. So I think that is when 663 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: I really started to think about like hope practice um 664 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 1: and reclaiming my sexuality and wanting to feel like my 665 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 1: body was mine again, right, So really being able to 666 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,880 Speaker 1: own my body, what I do with it. If I 667 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: take a photo, how I dress, so on me reclaiming 668 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 1: myself right because my power was taken from me, right, 669 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 1: so I need to get my power back. So how 670 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: am I doing that by dressing how I want and 671 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: not giving a fuck? Right, taking a photo and not 672 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:55,600 Speaker 1: giving a fuck? Um? So really like survivor standpoint. I 673 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: love that. That's beautiful and I again right like hoism 674 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 1: should be survivor focused and survivor centric um for me. 675 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: I saw this tweet ones that or maybe I saw 676 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,800 Speaker 1: it on Tumblr, but I saw it somewhere where somebody 677 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 1: had taken home and they turned it into an acronym 678 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,879 Speaker 1: for heaven on Earth, which I love, and I'm like, well, 679 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: how is just heaven on Earth? So how can you 680 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: not right? So how can you not love it. That's 681 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 1: all we all want to be in heaven anyways, it's 682 00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: right here. Um. And the other reason is because I 683 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:34,800 Speaker 1: come from like a really um devout Catholic family. You know, 684 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,759 Speaker 1: my grandmother loves church and and were Mexican Catholics. And 685 00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: I went to Catholic school for like nine years and 686 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 1: it was a lot, and it was the type of 687 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:50,880 Speaker 1: environment where UM talk about shaming girls for like our 688 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 1: bodies and our clothes. It's nothing but shame. It's one 689 00:41:55,040 --> 00:42:02,000 Speaker 1: shame oriented um education when it comes to girls are bodies, 690 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 1: queer students and their bodies. UM, when it comes to 691 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,279 Speaker 1: sex education, it's just all shame. It's all shame. And 692 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: so I feel like for me, coming into hoism and 693 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:17,080 Speaker 1: as practice is like letting go of all of that, 694 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 1: just kind of dispelling it for my body, like getting 695 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: rid of it, because the shame is it's crippling and 696 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,839 Speaker 1: it's it's oppressive and it's not helpful, it's not it's 697 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: not healthy. Yeah, I think like because the same I 698 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 1: come from a religious family. So I think also tied 699 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 1: with that, it's like this whole idea of body count body. 700 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: So if you're if you come from a Catholic family 701 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,399 Speaker 1: or a Christian family, a background. There's this emphasis on like, well, 702 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: you have to save yourself for a quote marriage, so 703 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: you can't have a high body count, like I don't 704 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:48,719 Speaker 1: have anybody. You can't have anybody, can You should be 705 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 1: a virgin when you get married, And then if you do, 706 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,120 Speaker 1: it should be like sub I'm gonna make a like 707 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:57,680 Speaker 1: sub five, right, maybe maybe even that would be high 708 00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 1: for some people, you know, which is fine. Do what 709 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: what you want with your body and who you who 710 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 1: you spend your time with, who you're intimate with. But 711 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,439 Speaker 1: don't shame folks that perhaps have a higher body count 712 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: or don't need to keep counting. You don't need to 713 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 1: keep count if you don't want to. And I think 714 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 1: that's what's one really important thing about hoism is like 715 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: and feminism, womanism is you know, if you're not hurting 716 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: other people, if you're not causing harm to others, um, 717 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: and what you're doing is your truth, then it makes 718 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: you feel good, then do it. But you don't impose 719 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: your expectations and standards on anybody else. You just don't, 720 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: you know, we expect everyone to respect boundaries, UM, to 721 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 1: not abuse other people, to treat others with respect, Like 722 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:43,239 Speaker 1: that's basic human decency, you know. But to tell a 723 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: woman or to tell a fem person or anybody that 724 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:48,959 Speaker 1: they can only have sex with so many, this many 725 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 1: people under these circumstances for these reasons, funk out of here. No, 726 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 1: not at all? Um? Why else? Why else do identify? 727 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: I know the same? What else do I identify? Oh? 728 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 1: I think because you know, I think recently I have 729 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: really come to the realization that like my body is 730 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 1: Like I just had this awakening, like this empiphany that wow, 731 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 1: like my body exists and like is living and breathing 732 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 1: for my own pleasure. Like my body is for me 733 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,200 Speaker 1: and for nobody else, Like literally no one unless I 734 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 1: want to share my body with another person. Right, So 735 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: that's part of my hoism, is like I'm going to 736 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,120 Speaker 1: use my body however I want to use it because 737 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: it's mine, you know. Yeah, there's something so powerful or 738 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 1: so beautiful about being naked with yourself, like physically naked. Um, 739 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: that's how I feel whenever. Like my like my post 740 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 1: shower ritual is always like coconut oil, moisturizing with coconut 741 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 1: and just like looking at myself literally like sitting in 742 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: my vanity, naked and just looking at myself, knowing my 743 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: body like that to me like that, that is my 744 00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: whole praxis as well. Love, self care, self care, self 745 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 1: love absolutely, because is there is there not even just women? 746 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:10,320 Speaker 1: Right masturbating? Is there not just that? That by itself 747 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: an activity that involves no other people? Right, you're doing 748 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 1: it by yourself. But there's a stigma to it. So 749 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,760 Speaker 1: even just touching your own body, enjoying your own body, 750 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: you can be considered a hoe in a negative way, right, 751 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 1: because your body exists for the pleasure of a man, 752 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 1: of a man, of a man, not another partner, but 753 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:34,399 Speaker 1: a man. But then, isn't it interesting then that sex 754 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: workers who are allowing ment to experience pleasure are so 755 00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 1: stigmatized because they're benefiting financially from extra they're making money. See, 756 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 1: we're supposed to have sex for free, not come right, 757 00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,839 Speaker 1: And that's okay as long as expected as the other 758 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,959 Speaker 1: person is getting off and they're happy. So I can't 759 00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:02,400 Speaker 1: benefit in any way physically, emotionally, economic, or else. It's derogatory. 760 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: I'm a home okay, Well, I am a home. Yeah. 761 00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: And the long and the short of it, m hmm. 762 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 1: There's so much, so much, there's so much. Why do 763 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 1: you all identify as homes? Why do you identify that? 764 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: I used to in my Instagram bio. I used to 765 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 1: have multitasking, which I used to love. I saw that. Yeah, 766 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 1: that used to be my little like my my in 767 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: my bio for a while and I love that. And 768 00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:29,720 Speaker 1: I think that's the other part of it is like listen, 769 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,800 Speaker 1: the holism. It's it's a practice, it's part of our politics, 770 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: but it doesn't it's not consuming our life all day 771 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,359 Speaker 1: every day. We're doing a whole lot of stuff. Yeah, 772 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 1: I saw this, I saw this tweet the other a 773 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 1: few months ago. They're really stuck with me, and I 774 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,760 Speaker 1: still think about it now. And it's about how women 775 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:51,399 Speaker 1: or you know, folks that are are open, they're they're 776 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 1: sexually open, that they are like hot, like they're kind 777 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: of I want to find it, so I don't, but 778 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,400 Speaker 1: but it's some The idea is that when you are 779 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 1: sexually free and you're open, and you you're very open, right, 780 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 1: then that's also taken advantage of, that's also exploited, right, 781 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: And I've I've found that to be true with past partners, 782 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,279 Speaker 1: right that because I'm so open or maybe I'm a 783 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 1: quote ho. Well then she won't mind if this happens, right, 784 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: Absolutely not, that's not true. Not so it's just it's 785 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: it's like what you're saying, Like, yes, it's not. This 786 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: does not consume my mind, Like I get, I'm multidimensional, right, Like, 787 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 1: just because I I like it this way, it doesn't 788 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: mean that you can do this either. There's still there's 789 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:35,920 Speaker 1: there's still consents, don't needs to be involved in it 790 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:40,839 Speaker 1: always and again pro ho. And I like, I get 791 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:45,840 Speaker 1: frustrated with older feminists. I get frustrated with older feminists 792 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,920 Speaker 1: and older feminists that I know in my life personally, 793 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:55,399 Speaker 1: because there is always a very quick tendency to turn 794 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,280 Speaker 1: your head around three D and sixty degrees when somebody 795 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:03,279 Speaker 1: wants to mention ho slut slut walk selfies. You know, 796 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:08,440 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of respectability politics in feminism, and 797 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 1: especially when you're talking to older feminists, and it just 798 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 1: is and and I don't like it, and it's annoying, 799 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 1: you know, And so I'm like no, because hoism means 800 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,800 Speaker 1: exactly what trauma informed and survivor centered should mean, that 801 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 1: I again do with my body what I want when 802 00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 1: I want, and that means I can be picky as hell, 803 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 1: and I am picky as hell. That means that I 804 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: say no to everybody that I want to say no to. 805 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,840 Speaker 1: However I want to say no, And when I decide 806 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 1: to say yes, that's my choice and that's my option. Right. 807 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 1: But being pro HO means your pro ho all the 808 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: way around, your pro ho autonomy, your pro ho autonomy, 809 00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 1: ho power like that your pro HO is making their 810 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 1: own choices about their own bodies. And and why I 811 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:59,799 Speaker 1: engage with you sexually and why I don't because this right, 812 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 1: it is not a democracy, right I think about the 813 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 1: tweeted ones. This is not a democracy. The body is 814 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:09,879 Speaker 1: not a democracy. It's a queendom. You know, you make 815 00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: all of the rules for your body, and that's it. 816 00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:18,399 Speaker 1: Nobody gets to negotiate with you, exactly, queens like queen 817 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: queens them. Yes, the whole queendom. There are rules, There 818 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 1: are many rules, are rules, and I wrote I write them, 819 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,239 Speaker 1: and I think that's the constitution absolutely. And I think 820 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,120 Speaker 1: this is part of the thing is that people hear 821 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: the term home or sexually liberated, they assume that there's 822 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 1: no boundaries, no rules, no boundaries, no morals, no limits. 823 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 1: I've found that with a partner in the past, where 824 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 1: a lot of things happened that I did not consent 825 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 1: to it. I was not okay with right. But because 826 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 1: it's like, oh, she's open, she's down, she's this, she's that, 827 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:54,800 Speaker 1: so she's not going to say no, No, that's not 828 00:49:55,560 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 1: that's not how consent works exactly anyway. So that's why 829 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,759 Speaker 1: we have to have these conversation important important, especially, Yeah, 830 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:07,000 Speaker 1: if you find yourself in a relationship and maybe you're 831 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: doing something you don't want to do. Yeah, And I know, 832 00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: especially in relationships, it gets complicated and it can get 833 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:16,040 Speaker 1: very gray and fuzzy. But just no, it doesn't matter 834 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 1: if you're in a relationship, it doesn't matter if you're married, 835 00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if you have ten kids together. If 836 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: you don't want to do something, then you don't have 837 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 1: to do anything, point blank periods. Consent always. And I 838 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 1: think we can talk about who is empowerment because I 839 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:35,399 Speaker 1: think that historically derogatory terms like slut, whole, whore thought 840 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 1: are used to take power away from someone because when 841 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 1: you label someone a slut or a whore, now it's 842 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 1: like we're talking about there's no rules, there's no boundaries, 843 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 1: there's no limits of it's a free for all on 844 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:50,640 Speaker 1: that person. No. HO is empowering because it's saying I 845 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 1: will do whatever I want with my body and you 846 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,560 Speaker 1: have to play by my rules. It flips it and 847 00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:00,200 Speaker 1: people have a problem with that. And that's why will 848 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 1: have a problem exactically, because people don't like when women 849 00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:06,680 Speaker 1: have ownership of our own bodies for our own purposes, 850 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 1: for our own benefit and leisure. Absolutely, I'm a girl 851 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:17,399 Speaker 1: to be a home, to be a home. Yeah, it's fun, 852 00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,799 Speaker 1: it's a fun life. It's a fun life.
