I too was critical of her pro-sub experiences and choices, but it is a memoir and her story. There seems to be a desire and need for a good pro-sub manual, but this is not it. Well put.

Because I want to read that book too. If you asked me who I knew that could write a book about sex work that was hot, and contained excellence, self-possesion, introspection, direction and ownership of her desires, sexuality, and her work, I'd say Calico.

I was just going to write you a reply to that comment with something like "that comment was a pretty complete/articulate review" - and then I saw the pingback. :) I'm a bit of an outsider to the world of sex work, so I was hesitant to write so critically of it, yet it was just so clearly simplifying a very complex situation. And it is actually the complexities that, I think, make it so fascinating! when she stripped all of that out, well, she lost most of her content, and praise from other critical folks interested in sex. hm. I like the way your brain works. we should talk books more sometime. very nicely said.
