Hookahqueeen: Balancing Customer Wants, Content Creation and Human Integrity |
Hookahqueeen started online sex work, via camming, in 2014. âI have always enjoyed sharing my most intimate moments, my talents and my body with those who support and respect me as a woman in charge of her body,â she told YNOT. âI chose sex work [as a career] because it’s my passion.â For Hookahqueeen, a desire to help others is a significant motivating factor in her work. âI love pleasuring others, making people smile and laugh and helping those feel confident and comfortable with themselves and their sexuality,â she explained. There are irksome aspects to all types of work though, and cam is no exception. âWith camming, it’s a lot of sitting around and waiting. There are also many of viewers who demand things for free,â Hookahqueeen said. As such, she added clips making to her repertoire in 2015 — but âit’s been on and off since then due to being a mom.â To date, Hookahqueeen estimates sheâs made about 200 clips. âI try to produce as many clips as possible… I wish I had time to film more, but I’m very busy with camming and my premium Snapchat… I’m averaging about two to three clips a month,â she said. âI prefer creating clips because I can do whatever I want with them. I’m my own boss. I’m able to launch a diverse selection of content where there’s something for everyone to enjoy. I also love taking requests to ensure everyone’s pleasure,â she continued. Between cam and clips, though related in many ways, the content creation processes are fairly distinct â but is creating compelling content for clips markedly different from creative compelling content on cam? âIn my personal experience, creating compelling content has everything to do with being real and showing that I’m having fun,â Hookahqueeen said, which — to me — sounds applicable to both media forms. Further, âMy supporters are a huge part of this process. I pay attention to everyone’s requests and interests and go from there.â Me at 18 years old. Iâve always been THE Hookahqueeen |
