And I said that his daughters were his high priced hookers? And some people thought I was making a mountain out of a molehill?

Well HE’S NOTHING BUT A PIMP.

Yeah, you can explain away his allowing his 9 year old daughter to swing around stripper poles and dress in dominatrix boots and fishnets at public events, fine. But can you explain away his decision to allow her to front a ‘children’s lingerie line‘? [Edit: Apparently it's not children's lingerie, it's just tutus. The collection is fronted by Emily Grace, Noah Cyrus' best friend but is advertised by both girls.]

NO YOU CANNOT.

You stand corrected.

You can call me a lot of things, but never a prude. That just wouldn’t make any sense. I am extremely liberal, I believe that sex isn’t something to be shied away from. I have age appropriate conversations with my daughters about all topics, sexuality included. But if something is supposed to be for adults, it should be for adults – if it’s for children, it should be for children. This is why we don’t watch Hannah Montana in this house, even though I’ll let them watch Kill Bill. There is a difference between kid stuff, which they will emulate and admire much more than adult stuff, because my kids know the difference between what’s ok for them and what’s not. Miley Cyrus blurs that line and I won’t have that, so no Hannah Montana (they come as a package deal). Have you seen her outfits and actions on stage at her concerts for LITTLE GIRLS?!

Yeah, no. Not in my damn house.

Billy Ray Cyrus is a pimp. There is no excuse for little girls acting like that right under his nose. And all those business and publicity decisions are supposed to go right through him, so there’s no excuse: he’s selling their souls sexuality for money and fame. That’s disgusting.

All of the news I’ve gotten about this entire debacle has been via Twitter and good Lord EVERYONE has had something to say about it. Which is cool, whatever, but some of what I’ve seen has really annoyed me.

He’s cheated on his wife. With a lot of women, apparently. Okay. That is awful of him, assuming that his marriage was a happy one and he’s just an insatiable horn dog. He decided that the hot piece of ass he married wasn’t enough hot ass. Bad, bad Tiger. Honestly though? You guys don’t know what happened. Their relationship is private, and you don’t know what their marriage has been like. Just like when they were first married and everyone made that grand assumption that because she was a nanny she’d hit the jackpot and married him for his money. You have absolutely no idea. About anything going on their life, besides what TMZ says. I mean of course we will all form opinions on it, and he should have been prepared for that, because he’s in the public eye – it’s what happens when you’re famous and rich – but it’s the finality of everyone’s opinions that bugs me. She should leave him, he should lose his endorsement deals, he’s a dog, she’s a saint, I hope he burns in hell and she takes all of his money – those sorts of things. Wow, I could have sworn that we’ve all made mistakes, we’ve all placed ourselves in situations that would make another person’s stomach turn. You wouldn’t think that by looking at some of the tweets I’ve seen.

BUT WHAT REALLY PISSES MY FUCKING GUTS are those that are laughing at what Elin Woods did, but if it was reversed would be boycotting golf itself until Tiger was banned. Those  same people that are counting off his women and wondering if he has an STD.  Or saying “whoa, that’s awesome of his wife,! I would have done the same thing! If my husband had cheated on me I would have gone after him with golf clubs too! I love it! Don’t lay down and take that, girl!” You are all some ridiculous fucking hypocrites. Seriously, so, like I don’t understand you AT ALL.

What if the situation had been reversed and Elin had cheated on Tiger, and then Tiger chased her out of their house, beating her with golf clubs, beating her car as she tried to escape him, even half passed out of pain pills for an injury, causing her to crash? Or what if he’d gotten out of his car after the crash to defend himself and hit her? With his fists or the golf club or a tree branch or a puppy or whatever? I doubt if ANY of you that are making light of what she did would be on his side.

Let’s put this in comparison with another high profile domestic incident of this year: Chris Brown and Rihanna. Chris Brown was boycotted, he was determined to be unworthy of any adulation, he was shunned by everyone, everywhere. He was a monster, a villain, there was no possible excuse for what he did, there was no reason, and even now many feel that there is no coming back from what he did. That he should lose it all.

Do you see the problem with that? I do. It was my issue all along. Now, if you keep up with black gossip sites, which most of you probably don’t, you’ll know that Chris Brown and Rihanna were rumored to have a really volatile relationship – before he whooped her ass. It was noted that she had jumped on him before, unable to control her temper, during public events, to which Chris responded by trying to escape or pushing her away from him. Which is why it never sat well with me that she never did anything at all to provoke his attack back in February, whether it was giving him herpes or hitting him first or whatever. I thought it must have been something, but that’s speculation on my part, just as it is everyone else’s. None of that mattered though: once it was revealed that he hit her, he was fucking lynched.

Why isn’t the same thing happening to Elin Woods? Why is no one saying SHE’S a monster? I mean, there’s something hilariously ironic about her going after the most famous golf player in the world with golf clubs, but other than that? There’s nothing funny about this. Can I see myself doing exactly what she did in that situation? OF COURSE. If you’ve been reading me for a while, you’ll know that I’ve done the same (fists not golf clubs) for a lot less reason. But do I think I deserved preferential treatment because I don’t have a dick or because I felt that I had good reason? NO.

If violence is always wrong, if it’s never justified, that should remain true no matter if it’s a woman scorned or just a guy with a temper doing the assaulting. You need to decide how you feel about domestic violence and fucking stick with it.

My head hurts just watching it. And the language that she is using towards her child -- I mean, I curse around my girls but I don’t curse AT my girls. All of it is just indicative of a bad situation. That mother needs parenting classes, among other things.

I flagged this video on YouTube months ago. Apparently, they don’t think this is wrong or cruel or disgusting. So, I’m asking you -- do you think this is child abuse? If you do, I suggest you flag it as well. If you don’t, pleaseeeeeeeee tell me what your thoughts on it are.

In the face. With a frozen bass.

You are NINE YEARS OLD. This is disgusting, it’s inappropriate and I cannot think of nar’ bit of justification for it.

EDIT: Video has been taken down (thank god). It was video of a little girl from Peru, reenacting Britney Spears’ music video for ‘Toxic’ - frame for completely over the top and way too sexualized frame. A NINE YEAR OLD little girl. In the same outfits. Making the same gesutres and faces. Same lyrics. Ew.

People that have never worked in the sex industry, or who have never known anyone who was able to thrive while working it have superiority complexes. Maybe I would have one too if I hadn’t done it myself, there’s no way for me to know, although I’m hoping I’d be open minded and not judgmental.

But, over the past week or two, here and there, I feel like I haven’t been able to escape the people looking down their noses at sex workers.

The most recent instance being in the comments on this post from my friend Lindsay. Not in the post – just the comments. Many of them were scathing, totally condescending and not really from the angle that Lindsay was presenting her issue with Mommy XXX, but from the average, Puritan “porn is horrible/women in sex work cannot be good mothers/no no we won’t go!” view.

I’ll admit, it almost hurt my feelings. Unlike most of them probably, I worked sex work. I know women in sex work. Past and present tense. Some of them are mothers, and they are damn good mothers. They love their children like I do, like you do.

While I personally could not see myself going back into what I was doing prior to marriage/children now that I have children, if I did, I resent the fact that some people would automatically write me off as a shitty mother, a shame to women everywhere, a perpetrator of a filthy industry or a victim.

I really have a news flash for you, for all of you who think you know but really have no idea:

You are no better than the average whore.

No really, I promise.

You aren’t.

Sure, there are some of you that are better than some of them – but that’s beside the point.

Some humans are just better at being human.

Say what you will about the sex industry, the people that work in it, what you think it does to our society and our children and our relationships – I don’t care. Today is not a day I feel like getting into the ins and outs. Maybe another time.

I won’t argue with you about, there’s no point because if you disagree with me I don’t care. This is one thing on which I cannot be swayed.

All I wanted to say today was that, up there.

And that I support sex workers rights, I love sex bloggers and I wish that more of the world was sex-friendly and less finger waggy. It’s time again for the Sex Blogger Calendar to be released, and you can order yours by clicking the button below. It’s put on in part by my good friend Tess, someone who understands and appreciates that whores are people too. And good people, at that.

And I’m done.
