When will the world finally allow us seemingly ordinary people to be free to be you and me, I wonder? Probably the day after never. My name is Minerva Tremblay and I'm a young French Canadian woman living in the City of Ottawa, Ontario. Five-foot-eleven, lean and athletic but curvy, with long blonde hair and blue eyes, I look like a supermodel but I am a numbers gal. Look, I am a geek, essentially.
Female geeks do exist, ladies and gentlemen. I am that chick who loved science fiction books and superhero cartoon shows when I was younger. Most of my friends were guys. Yup, I was that rare combination of tomboy and nerd. I studied accounting at the University of Ottawa, graduating with a bachelor's degree in the summer of 2012. Since then, I've been working for the Canada Revenue Agency. Considering I am a recent university graduate, I am lucky to have found a job in my field.
By day I am just another uptight White female government functionary working in the high towers downtown, but by night, I become something else altogether. Something my friends cannot imagine. I become Mina, the Sultry Vixen. A professional escort. I advertise online, taking great care not to show my face. Can't have my family, friends and co-workers find out what I've been up to. Yeah, I know what you're thinking. The world's oldest profession. Why would an educated woman who is successful delve into it? Well, that is one hell of a complex question, folks.
Why do I do this? I honestly don't know. It's not because I need the money. I make a good amount of money at my "vanilla" job. Most people don't think of me when they envision an escort or a prostitute, whatever term they want to call women who sell their bodies. I am not some young runaway, working in the world's oldest profession because I have daddy issues. Nor am I some desperate housewife, dying to give herself a thrill. Nope, I am something else altogether.
I work for the Canadian government and I have a high level of clearance thanks to my job at Canada Revenue Agency. I make sixty five thousand dollars a year, after taxes. I live in a nice townhouse located not far from the Marketplace area of suburban Barrhaven, arguably Ottawa's richest square mile. I bought it last year and recently put a pool in the backyard. I come from an upper-middle class background. My father, Lionel Tremblay used to work for the RCMP and my mother, Helene Jean-Tremblay was a schoolteacher. I lacked for nothing in our lovely house in Orleans.
My parents, friends and co-workers don't know or even suspect the existence of Mina the Vixen, and that's how I like it. I like the thrill of it, the danger of meeting new men, and finding out what makes them tick. A man is at his most vulnerable right before, during and after sex. This much I know for sure. I love men, of all races and religions. I find men endlessly fascinating, and love exploring both their minds and bodies. What can I say, ladies and gentlemen? I know what I like!
I think I get tired of being the cold, unfeeling government worker. I hate sitting at my cubicle, in front of the computer or on the phone, like a robot. Cigarette in one hand and coffee cup in the other, I take frequent breaks at work, coming down from the ivory tower to smoke or chit-chat with other ladies and the endless parade of effeminate males whom the Canada Revenue Agency likes to hire. Lots of my co-workers do the same thing I do. We talk about weekends spent at the cottage, or shopping trips to Montreal or Winnipeg. We are boring people leading boring lives, what else can you expect from us?
I meet all kinds of men at The Bay Street Hotel in downtown Ottawa. It's my favorite one. Lots of visiting businessmen from Montreal, Toronto, and even Boston and New York City stay there. I don't use an escort service, and instead advertise at the back of local newspapers. I have two cellphones, the main one which is known to my parents, friends and select co-workers, and The Other One, known only to the men who browse the back of newspapers, looking for a lady of the evening. I am classy and pretty, educated and well-spoken, and my clientele appreciates that about me.
Unlike a lot of escorts out there, I don't discriminate on the basis of color. I've seen escort ads online posted by women working in the Ottawa area who specified "No Black Gentlemen". I feel like laughing when I see these ads because I think these women are insane. If you're selling your body, yes you have to have standards, but you can't exactly act as though you were the Queen of Sheba. Get real ladies, that's all I am saying.
You can call it escort work, courtesan work, being a geisha, or a lady of the evening, but it's all the same. I know what I am. The moment I decided to sell my body for money I became a prostitute in the eyes of most men and women, never mind that I am educated, middle-class, and work for the Canadian government. I make no bones about any of that, folks. Besides, I like variety in my dealings with males. Most of my clients are middle-aged White guys, private sector guys or government workers for the most part. They're usually polite, and decent, but their sexual prowess lacks. Oh, and some of them are vicious and angry. I learned to steer clear of those.
My most memorable experience came courtesy of a tall, dark and handsome young Muslim gentleman by the name of Mohammed. The tall, well-dressed young man who decidedly looked Somali, came up the elevator. I read him instantly. College student. Probably from out of town. Either Montreal, Calgary or Toronto. Those are the three cities with the largest Somali populations outside of Ottawa. This guy spoke English well, and was well-mannered and friendly, but I could tell he wasn't from Ottawa. There was something Prairie-like about his accent, so I'm guessing the tall, handsome brother came from either Calgary or Edmonton.
My standard fee is three hundred dollars for sixty minutes of my time, and I have hard limits. I don't like choking, or rough sex, and I don't like biting or spanking. I do not like anal sex. I don't permit men to cum on my face. Oh, and I've had to add no spitting to the list because lots of White guys like to spit on people and occasionally they like to be spat on. I find that disgusting and an affront to human dignity. I don't tolerate this sort of thing.
Prior to starting the festivities, I spoke with Mohammed, and the handsome young Somali guy politely told me what he liked. I've had sex with Arab guys and one Chinese guy before, but never a Black guy. I don't discriminate. I just hadn't had the pleasure of bedding a Black man. No, I am not that White chick who has a fetish for Black men. Nor am I that White chick who's racist and hates Black men. I like men of all colors, provided they're friendly and respectful. I'll slap the hell out of you if you're disrespectful whether you're Black as midnight or White as snow. I don't play.
