Welcome Sex Writer, Consultant, and Editor of The Beautiful Kind, Kendra Holliday, to the Community Interview!

Welcome Sex Writer, Consultant, and Editor of The Beautiful Kind, Kendra Holliday, to the Community Interview!For TBK, this interview is all about Coming Out as a Sex Positive Slut in the Midwest Bible Belt. Want to find out what made Kendra decide to “come out”? What was it like being fired from her job for her personal blog? What are her plans now that she is fully embracing her identity? She’s ready to talk! And she’s even taking your questions.Kendra Holliday is The Beautiful Kind, a 38-year-old bisexual mother living in St. Louis, MO. She has been boldly and bravely exploring sex for over 20 years, and has spent the past four years documenting her wild adventures anonymously online as a Sex Writer, Consultant, and Editor of TheBeautifulKind.com. So, on Coming Out Day, and in keeping with her belief that sex should be discussed openly and honestly in the light of day instead of whispered secretively in the dark, she has made the difficult but vital decision to fully own all that she has done - the good, the bad, and the ugly. And now she is telling you her name, showing you her face, telling you her story (did you see the video interview on SexIs yet?!), and taking your questions on the interview page. You may recall that The Beautiful Kind made national news in April when she was dramatically fired from her full-time day job for writing about sex in her personal life under a pen name. In a random Google search, TBK’s employer found her real name unknowingly linked to her personal website, and based her immediate termination on this sole instance. (The employer has continually declined public comment.) Countless blogs and media websites picked up the scandalous story, including Inc.com, Business Insider, Glamour, Huffington Post, digg, Jezebel, Fleshbot, and Mental_Floss. During that difficult time, TBK took her website down for a few weeks and focused on writing her empowering ebook The Book of Goddess: Elevating Your Desirability to Mythic Proportions. Kendra shares: “I’m grateful to my friends and family for supporting my decision. There’s no telling what will come of this bold move, but I’m confident coming out will open up many new doors and be an inspiration to others. We all want to be accepted for who we are.” Kendra writes openly about her current life experiences on her own site, as well as her former days as a sex worker, in her column with us, The Whore Journals on SexIs.Kendra is embracing her future by focusing on ways to give back to the community and to educate others. As a founding member of a new not-for-profit community organization, Sex Positive St. Louis (SEX STL), she is excited about the potential of this online community resource for local sex positive events, partnerships with organizations, and information sharing. Her work with SexIs continues with her column, as well as the very telling and personal video interview (link) revealing her identity, intentions, and future plans. As Kendra plans workshops and speaking events, both independently and with SEX STL, EdenFantasys will be sponsoring her efforts. Do you have questions for Kendra? Go ahead, ask! This is your time to interview her! Ask as many questions as you’d like; you can even post about and link to the interview from your blog if you want to. Feel free to share your thoughts! And there are prizes! Kendra will be giving away some amazingly personal prizes for her favorite 3 questions! We’ll be announcing the winners in this thread next week on Friday, October 22nd. The prizes are...1st Prize: a 60 minute Skype consultation with TBK and a $100 EdenFantasys GiftCard2nd Prize: a 30 minute Skype consultation with TBK and a $50 EdenFantasys GiftCard3rd Prize: a $25 EdenFantasys GiftCardThe interview is open for questions from today (October 11th) – Monday, October 18th.

Hi! Congratulations on TBK! I'm a mother, too, andI'm curious about how you were able to talk to your children about sex, and when you started telling them about your sex life.

25 years ago, when I was artist's model and phone sex worker, those professions were used against me when I went through my divorce, and as a result I lost custody of my child. Has this also happened to you?

I look forward to your answer and reading more from you! less
