Maggie McNeill in Wichita
Hey Y'all,
One of my favorite sex worker rights advocates, Maggie McNeill, is visiting Wichita and holding forth tomorrow night June 27, 2014 from 6:30 – 9PM at the Liberty on the Rocks, Candle Club | 6135 East 13th St N Wichita **no membership or cover to attend, this event is open to the public** Highly recommend that you check her out if you don't already know from her blog. From her description:
Maggie McNeill was a librarian in suburban New Orleans, but after divorce economic necessity spurred her to take up sex work; from 1997 to 2006 she worked first as a stripper, then as a call girl and madam. She eventually married her favorite client, retired, and moved to a ranch in the rural Upper South. There she writes a daily blog called “The Honest Courtesan”, which examines the realities, myths, history, lore, science, philosophy, art, and every other aspect of prostitution; she also reports sex work news, critiques the way her profession is treated in the media and by governments, and is frequently consulted by academics and journalists as an expert on the subject.
