I met with Elle Page and Isabel McDevitt recently about printing another run of 'Until They Have Faces,' an amazing project by Elle and her photographer husband, David Page. This is truly a beautiful book, well-done and informative about what it's really like to be homeless. My story is included.
  
Here's a beautiful story to go with the book:

"One day I got on the Jump with a woman who brought TWO dogs on board. I joked with the driver that I should have brought my cat along, but I watched a miracle occur. The lady was sitting behind me. The dogs were well-behaved and quiet. One of them, what I would call a 'cow dog' with blue eyes (I think they are called Blue Heeler), very slowly approached the man sitting across the aisle from me. He was obviously not well and had the appearance of one of our marginalized homeless. The dog gently, respectfully placed his muzzle on the man's hand. They began eye gazing and he petted the dog. All at once, he burst into tears, sobbing and holding the dog close to his chest. The owner of the animal said something about the dog being a healer and an unconditional lover. Everyone on the bus seemed embarrassed by the outburst, and at the next stop, the man got off the bus. We can only imagine how long it had been since he felt unconditional love from anything or anyone: perhaps never. We don't know what he struggles with, what traumas he holds or how hard he might be trying, in his own way, to improve his situation."

Tantra or Prostitution?

Here is a sample of what I face every day of my working life:

-------------------- Thanks for the connection so that I can discuss my needs with you; I've had mixed results from Tantra practitioners since every practitioner does things differently. Although everyone presumes a full male release is part of a tantra session, I've had at least one tantra practitioner not provide a male release (and charge me a small fortune). Another practitioner advertised a "male g-spot" ceremony, yet didn't touch my male g-spot. So you can see, the results can be much less than what's expected. If you're a real tantra practitioner who's willing to provide a full male release (with both of us completely nude of course) and massage my male g-spot, then I'd like to make an appointment with you. Please let me know either way.

My response:

You may visit my website to learn about how I work: www.sensualwisdom.com. I am not willing to engage in sessions with someone that starts to attempt to control the session before we even meet. I only get nude with someone when I feel absolutely safe and respected. If you think getting sexual release is the most important thing about a tantric session, then quit calling it tantra and call it what it is: sex for money. That's illegal in most places. I'm so sorry to learn that you think everyone 'presumes a full male release is part of a tantra session.' It is not, and should not be the focus if someone is truly teaching tantric techniques.

Massaging your 'male g-spot' as you put it entails me inserting my fingers into your rectum to reach your prostate. I only do that for my very best and closest lovers, as I find it strenuous and, if a person doesn't know how to prepare for it (as in, have an enema within an hour prior to the session), I also find it distasteful. You couldn't pay me enough. Really. If, on the other hand (teehee) you had an interest in learning yoni massage and sacred spot massage for women, I might agree, after we have spent several sessions together, laying a foundation of comfort, respect and safety for BOTH of us, to begin to teach you how to touch a woman in her most intimate parts. But I'd have to see a big shift from the tone of your initial inquiry.

Thank you for your interest in my work. If you'd like to correspond after you have read all my sites, feel free to write me directly at jade@sensualwisdom.com.
