Where Philosophy Meets Pleasure

I am not just another pretty face and sumptuous, curvy, elegantly adorned body. A brilliant and creative mind carefully attuned for mischief must stay sharp. Here is a collection of classes I’ve taught over the years. Every class reflects My deep love of academic research, storytelling, theatrics, and philosophy.

My first class and My pride and joy. As the Bay Area’s most devoted rubberist, I had to begin My teaching career with a love letter to all that shines. This class covered the history of latex all the way from 1600 BCE to present day.

I also had the immense pleasure of working closely with the Leather Archives and Museum in Chicago, Illinois, to conduct archival research for this lecture’s content.

The poster mentions the class explores the history of rubber, including topics such as the Aztec people, quack medicine, high fashion, the Second World War, raincoat fetishists, and more.

Latex: A History


This class explored how latex is not just a material, but also a cultural artifact with its own history, chemistry, and rituals of care. Through carefully shot videos and detailed lectures, students got a first-hand look into latex repair, care, storage, and even chlorination.

Once condemned as madness, now simply treated as a “preference,” kink has long existed on the edges of medicine and morality. This class traced kink’s origins and discussed how these old ways of thinking still haunt our society today. Using easy-to-understand philosophical frameworks such as virtue and care ethics, I proved that kink isn’t just morally neutral but morally positive.

Intro to Verbal Humiliation: Off the Cuff, On Your Knees

This class explored the concept of verbal humiliation through the lens of improvisational comedy. Using techniques like commitment and quick decision-making, students learned how to turn “yes, and” into “yes, Mistress” or “yes, Sir.”

This class was My most successful to date, with nearly 50 students in attendance.


Through guided exercises, intentional movement, and a little bit of acting technique and sex magic, this class taught students to drop into their bodies and move in an erotic context without nerves or hesitation. We also explored the power of stillness, eye contact, silence, and the art of drawing a lover’s focus into you.

Intro to Fetishwear: Dressing For Pleasure

Fetish wear isn’t just clothing; it’s power, presence, and play all rolled up into one beautiful, irresistible package. This class is a gateway to everything shiny, leathery, and laced up. Fetish wear itself has always existed at the intersection of subculture, rebellion, and desire, and in this class, we will go beyond the mere surface. Covering everything from hankey code to the basics of buying your first corset, this class will delve into the forbidden depths of history’s naughtiest fashion and textiles.

We will explore the foundations of:

  • Corsetry: Buying, structure, history, wearing with ease

  • Leather: care, conditioning, culture

  • Heels and boots: history of fetishism, balance, and longevity

  • Boot blacking: ritual, respect, technique

  • Latex: Dressing, buying, care, conditioning, culture

And much more!

Come prepared to learn, grow, and leave just a bit more fabulous!
