Shoshanna Blanca (AKA Jesus Christ Pornstar): Psychedelics, Sex Work and Female Desire

Shoshanna Blanca, known publicly as Jesus Christ Pornstar, is a sex writer, adult performer, sexologist and PhD candidate in clinical sexology. She talks with Andrew about how psychedelic experiences, from MDMA and mushrooms to ayahuasca and iboga, helped her recognise and work through patterns of workaholism, disordered eating and self-rejection.The conversation covers why she believes many men are unsettled by a woman who openly knows and states her own desire, the double standards sex workers face in dating, how she uses image and persona to reclaim control over how she's seen, and her concerns about AI, from generic AI-written communication to the ethics of submissive sex robots. She also discusses reconciling her religious identity with her work, and her ongoing PhD research on religious sex workers.This episode discusses sex work and sexuality in explicit terms and is intended for a mature audience.Guest: Shoshanna Blanca (AKA Jesus Christ Pornstar), sex writer, adult performer, sexologist, PhD candidate in clinical sexologyHost: Andrew Phipps, Intimacy Inquiryhttps://linktr.ee/shoshannalovesjesus1
