HOOK: E-zine By, For, and About Men in the Sex Industry

You're probably wondering, how did Yo Pussy do it again? Well, let's just say that true professionals appreciate other true professionals, even when the interviewer is a cartoon character. That's a lesson for you three dimensional journalists to learn, and learn well. I spoke with mistress Fury in her impressive Gothic inspired dungeon: tapestries, sculpture, and no black walls. Are freshing and potent chamber.

Yo Pussy: Mistress Fury, how long have you been working as a professional dominatrix, and how did you get started?

Augusta Fury: I've been working as a professional mistress for two years. I had SM fantasies all my life and these were first acted out with my first boyfriend who was twenty-seven and submissive. I was seventeen. Later, when I got to San Francisco, I joined the SM community and was properly educated as a dominant before I started working as a mistress.

Yo: You seem like you're realy happy with what you do, and i know that you identify yourself as a whore, unlike alot of other professional dominants.

Augusta: I love what I do. I'm giving people what they want sexually- sex is on of the greatest pleasures we have this side of heaven. It makes me feel good to provide people with that pleasure.

Yo: you call yourself a whore...

Augusta: sure i do. I'm not doing anything that any other mistress out there doesn't do, but i call myself a whore because I know that i can get busted even if I don't take it in the cunt. Sex to me is more than intercourse. Denying sexuality in SM is denying that emotional and physical needs are being met in an SM scene.

Yo: what if you're jsut whipping someone?

Augusta: oh Christ, if I say I'm not having sex when i whip someone, that would be a huge lie. It would be denial of the momentary intimacy and arousal we're both experiencing.

Yo: before, I said that you seem really happy working. Why do you think that is?

Augusta: I get emotional and spiritual fulfillment from my job. My clients have helped me emotionally- I fel better about myself because I've worked as a whore. My clients give me sexual acceptance-that's something that I needed to feel before I could go on in my life. Spiritually, I feel coveted working as a whore. Aphrodite is an active intermediary between God and me. I believe she protects me- I give offerings to her and say prayers to her.

Yo: So are you a Greek Pagan?

Augusta: Kind of, I guess, though I embraced Gnostic Christianity at a young age, and i still consider myself to be a Gnostic Christian. The Gnostics saw Mary Magdelene-

Yo: a truly rad fore-mother-whore!

Augusta: no doubt! Anyways, the Gnostics saw her as the true spiritual disciple of Christ. I think it was natural for her to become His true spiritual disciple after showing so many people the white light of God (you know that light when you're coming) when working as a whore.

Yo: Do you think she stopped turning tricks once she started hanging with Jesus?

Augusta: who knows? What if she did- we all gotta retire sometimes, and even if she stopped turning tricks, she never stopped being a whore. After you turn tricks, you change- it's like you are no longer innocent, but it's good. We at the apple in Eden-maybe it was the golden apple of Aphrodite- and only after eating the fruit of knowledge can we be saved.

Yo: so Aphrodite fits comfortably in your Gnostic Christian beliefs?

Augusta: yeah, why not? I can't take everything ever written down reagarding theology seriously, but I do know what works for me. I feel protected and coveted. When I work I think about Aphrodite and some beautiful whores that are no longer here. I think of them being with Aphrodite or else as being angels.

Yo: hmm... wonder what the pop would think of this. So do you get to see the white light of God often these days?

Augusta: funny you should mention it, but the white light has been zapping me a lot lately when I've been mastrubating.

Yo: good for you. I've heard about the Jeff Stryker dildo and i've seen you at Sanrio putting stationary clamps on your fingers

Augusta: those are part of my ticket to heaven.

Yo: you can't go to heaven on roller skates and a Jeff Stryker dildo.

Augusta: yeah, but plaid, and Sanrio stationalry clamps help, plus I have a great Daddy, mia sorellina, e il mio bambino bello...

Yo: my editor warned me about you and Italian. I'm stopping this interview before I have to twist my ears from listening to a bad aria!
