Call Her the TeleEroticist

Posted by on Fri, Feb 26, 2010 at 4:29 PM

An unemployed female writer becomes a nighttime phone sex operator and tweets about it. That's all you need to know.

Besides this: "Guys who call the ugly girl line are my favorite. They spend the first few minutes telling you how you don't belong on the ugly girl line."

And this: "Just got a call to a blackmail line. They give you all their personal info, which would be cool if it didn't include their kids' names..."

(TeleEroticist, thanks for letting me be a fly on your wall.)

Yeah, I saw this on Jezebel and was like, this is amazing. Super interesting to read the different kinds of lines there are (white supremacist!), but also what guys who call sex lines are like....

There's one tweet where she muses that the guys always think she's "into" the conversation too. This always cracks me up about guys and sex workers---the guys don't seem to grok that women are mercenaries. Uh, boys, you did have to PAY to talk to the nice lady, right?

What a coincidence. I was looking at jobs on Craigslist yesterday and saw one for Telephone Actress - Voice Talent. I've only been unemployed for a day, but in a few months I might be desperate enough to visit www.phoneactress.com.

Anyone else think this is a clever PR prank of some sort? Maybe the "unemployed writer" has written her book already and is attempting to harness the power of new media to get a following.

I hope not. I'm getting pretty sick of that particular PR device.
