We're so excited to share this episode with you all! We're joined by Chastity Twist. Chastity Twist started burlesque in 2012 after growing up as a dance and theatre kid. She began teaching burlesque and chair dance at the Vancouver Burlesque Company in 2017 and is the current Secretary on the Board of Directors for the Vancouver International Burlesque Festival (or VIBF.) In 2018 she began working at a strip club as a topless blackjack dealer and private dancer. 2012 was also the year she began work as an independent indoor sex worker, and has participated in sex work since then in various capacities, as a sugar baby, escort, erotic masseuse and pro-domme. She is currently working on her business and the festival and waiting for pandemic restrictions to lift so that live classes and performances can be a thing again.
Key topics:
- The difference between sex work and sex trafficking (answer: consent!)
- The whorearchy which says one form of sexual expression or work is better than another. For example, burlesque is acceptable but escorting may not be, etc.
- Privilege within sex work and the difference between indoor and outdoor sex work.
- How sex work and laws around it impact all of our daily lives, such as through urban planning and road traffic laws.
- Sexual empowerment and connecting with your own sexuality.
