TER General Board

Read it over the weekend
WICardinalfan 37 Reviews 108 reads
posted

I read the book over the weekend.  Majority of the content is a biography of a lady who had a rough childhood and her journey to and through adulthood.

Sex work narrative represents about 1/3 of the content.  

Far be it for me to be a critic and ruin a potential sale, so I will not go into any more details.  

Anyone who has experience in the hobby, male or female, will not find anything supersizing.  

Well written and a fast read.

Just got a pretty good review in The NY Times. Of course, having gone to numerous M&Gs in Manhattan, I examined the author's cover picture to see if I ever met her. I haven't. Looks like an interesting read though.

I have seen her a few times over the years when she came to Boston. Very good sessions.  I might read the book.

OTOH, she's a lot cuter than any of the politicians.

That blurb is dripping with woke.

Does she use hobbyists names or TER handles to describe dates?

When I saw words like “CisGender” and non-binary I knew I had no interest in this read. I could never read the words of a woman who refers to herself as a “They” yet capitalized on the pussy that rewarded her for being an attractive “Her”

I will gently point out that the blurb is written by the publisher, not the author.  I haven't read the book so I can't speak for it, but it might be more expansive than the blurb implies.

Perhaps I can help.  The author refers to herself as queer and/or bi sexual.

I do not recall any big LBQ...whatever in her book.  However, in her personal life she definitely loves other women.  

There is a hint of Woke, it is not overpowering.  I despise woke, it is out of control, however that thinking belongs on a different board.  

Majority of the narrative as bout her personal life and is limited on "war stories" IMHO.

Feeds right into the whole stereotype that SW'ers are women who had rough childhoods and/or were abused.  

She should have focused much more on the industry and how it has changed over the years.
