Quote

I'd like to see feminism really be more loving. Feminists have a lot of righteous anger, and have done a lot to fight for rights. But we need a lot of love and compassion - to embrace people, to educate people. I wasn't a feminist until l I was educated about what it was. I would love to see men attend, and transgender people. Everyone is welcome.

Image
People who have been prostitutes are ten times more willing to be johns than the average person. So, if you've been paid for sex you understand the value of that experience on some level.
Annie Sprinkle
Image
Sex is normal and natural, and we've made it abnormal and unnatural.
Annie Sprinkle
Image
Whores do sometimes break up with their johns.

There have been times where I have definitely felt like I was a john. As a pin-up photographer for ten years, when I was photographing men and women, to be honest, sometimes I felt like I was a john, especially when I was shooting guys because they - you know - they had to have big erections in the photos.

It's a pity that there's such a negative connotation about paying for sex.

Image
I love to engage people who think differently than I do.

I don't think being obsessed with sex is any stranger than being obsessed with stamp collecting.

I had this client I'll call Samuel. Not his real name. I saw him steadily for twenty years, usually twice a month. Over twenty years you really get to know someone.

Image
I usually kissed my clients if they wanted to kiss. I thought it was just way too weird to say no kissing allowed, That to me was uncomfortable.

There's a lot of pain and suffering out there. I think there needs to be more joy, and love, and orgasms in the world. We are a pleasure-negati ve society. Suffering is much more acceptable. And I want to tell women that they are sexually powerful beings, but they often don't get in touch with it because they are socialized to please men.

Image
I had many clients who didn't respect me, probably because of how they were raised. We're all the walking wounded.
Annie Sprinkle
Image
A lot of women I worked with didn't respect their clients. I had some clients who didn't respect me, but still you somehow made it work.
Annie Sprinkle
Image
I've been putting out sexually explicit images of myself for years. I know this sounds bizarre, but somehow it makes me feel safer.
Annie Sprinkle
Image
My johns adored and worshipped me, therefore they empowered me. When I was 18, 19, and 20, I had a poor self-image and needed attention. It's hard for people who haven't been prostitutes to imagine, but I think it's often true. There can be a very symbiotic relationship happening.
