About the Book

In response to the #MeToo epidemic, Phoenix contends that indie sex workers are all about #MeInCharge. She discloses that claim with a command of narration that warrants close heeding and study. First she describes her experiences as an indie (never pimped) sex worker. Motherhood distinguishes Phoenix from most of her published peers. She explains that she got into sex work to rescue her traumatized, impoverished children, and that consequently, they healed. Phoenix is a charitable feminist. While condemning pussy grabbers, trafficking pimps, and every type of brute in between, she shows abiding good will toward men in general. She's also a practitioner of natural healing who asserts that herstorically, prostitution was a cornerstone of health. She often revisits that claim, joyfully extracting "sex positive" truths with vibrant, even luminous narratives. Like her peers who have launched the phrase "sex worker", Phoenix has coined one as well, anf this term begs myriad questions: "true whore." It enshrines the spiritually sexual priestesses who primordially ruled before the patriarchs, assisting in the worship of Goddess. Her view, backed by numerous archives, is that they were assuredly true, meaning needed, therapeutic, and honored. Phoenix has also coined The Feminine Trinity Nurturing, Healing, Erotic. Grateful parishioners tithed prostitutes back then, with whatever served as their money. True whores are among us today, she insists, and that's easy to say, as she is one. In what can fairly be called a manifesto, Phoenix urges feminism to not only save the trafficked, but also to save the profession. Sex workers endure the world's hatred. Their haven is their strength of conviction. They love the great money and feel truly empowered, but must hide from the hatr and arrests. And it's not just about outlawed power. Phoenix claims clients of compassionate escorts are inclined to reflect their kind nature. And most escorts haven't been forced. They literally embody the torturous collision of human rights and women's rights issues, and Phoenix explains this with a staggering fusion of adroitness and poignant revelation. We are significant women, she states, magnificently paid and revered; our clients are Prince Charming in plural; our plight is that anyone who isn't a client horrendously misunderstands. She composes in an easy conversational style that renders a substantial and riveting read for the general adult reading public. But she richly sources, as well. For everyone she caters a well-balanced banquet of Eros, reflection, and clarity. Her previous edition, Are They Bad Girls or Brilliant, received entirely 4 and 5-star reviews. In this, the third edition of her opus, updated and retitled for 2019, she roundly critiques the present Powers That Be with impassioned polemic rebellion. Considering the tragedies and hardships she endured before she got into sex work, her penname is thoroughly apt. Aphrodite to honor the goddess of sensuality, creativity, and compassion. Phoenix to honor the mythical bird that rose from the ashes of despair.

About the Author :
Native New Yorker and lover of New England, Aphrodite Phoenix graduated from Framingham State University with a B.A. in English. She cites her experience as a poor single mother with no living parents or child support, compounded by no earning power. She was driven past the threshold of acceptable to the lifestyle of independent escort. Finally she had enough money and time to adequately care for her children. And to get to work on her books. Her penname is an homage to the sensual goddess and the mythical bird that rose free from the ashes of chaos and destruction. They symbolize her sex-positivity and her tragedy-turned-into-triumph. She lives by the sea, in Massachusetts.

Review :
"She...expounds on the health benefits of being a true whore and the ancient history of the profession. Even though Phoenix's research is expansive...most absorbing are the author's stories from the front lines...Phoenix will delight with her striking and sometimes funny turns of phrase, such as her description of her specialty, fellatio, as being able to "speak very conversational French." Likewise, her questionnaires and lists of advice within the last hundred pages are quite entertaining...passionate and informative... takes a range of institutions and groups to task..." ----Kirkus Reviews "Brilliant page turner...a force of empowerment...should be required reading."--Julie McIntyre, author, Sex and the Intelligence of the Heart. "[Having read this], the next time I call a politician a whore, it will be a compliment."---Barry Crimmins, political satirist and author "I LOVE YOUR BOOK!...Your writing is so liberating!...such a beautiful perspective on sex work..."---Jane Williamson, U.N. Human Rights Worker
