TooSquare: What got you started doing the cam work, and when did you start?

Analise: Well, a family friend came to me one day who knew I was a tech junkie and said he knew someone that could help me do this. I did not take him seriously. So I did some research on who was who, and found they were OK people to work with. They called ME! I was shocked. And a year later I acquisitioned the site for my own. I have been doing this for about a year and a half now.

TS: Did you do anything before starting your cam that might lead your friend to think you would be interested? It seems that some girls might not have what it takes to pull of posing and chatting on the net?

A: Ahhh, he knew me well. I always had a great sex life and he knew all about it. He knew that the idea of a Webcam/Web site was a suitable blend for me. I had never really been in front of a camera that much prior, as I did photography as a hobby and did not think I was very photogenic, so it took some time to get used to being in front of it and looking over images of myself.

TS: Hehehe! I can only imagine what it must take to keep yourself available for chats and online sessions; does this occupy most of your time?

A: I am very interactive and I think some people forget that I am, um … a little too busy “doing my thing” to type. Yeah, what I find more provocative than imagery is the interaction factor. People just want to communicate and connect so I do spend more time chatting than “playing” for the cam. I do a lot of “overtime” there

TS: Is the cam work your primary income source? It seems that it keeps you so busy; it must be worthwhile monetarily.

A: Had I engaged in this 4-5 years ago I could tell you that it is a lucrative endeavor. These days many of the first people doing this were not very ethical and consumers were burned. So now I find, in a more saturated market, that I have to earn their trust through interaction before they feel brave enough to step up and join the members side, knowing I am not playing with either their heart or their wallet. I do devote a lot of time to this, as it is my hobby. I must say however, the perks … NOW THAT MAKES IT ALL WORTH WHILE!

TS: Do you feel your members think of you as an online girlfriend, or more of a chat partner/friend? What impression do you get from long time members? Or are most first timers?

A: Well, just as in real life, my connections to my members are just as unique as ANY relationship. There are a few (who) consider me their girlfriend, so I have to be really careful with them to not push their ideas or shatter their image of me. Others are more pragmatic about what is going on and prefer the mutual communication. I have met a few people from my site and we are good friends; I get new members daily. Most never chat (with) me so I never even know if they are watching, but I notice that most of the ones that chat … they end up being longtime participants. And who said boys can’t be loyal?

TS: Do you feel there is a dark side to your work? Have you had any bad experiences with family, friends or members?

A: Isn’t there a dark side to everything? I am more generous in nature than most people. Sometimes people, mainly ones that are not members and have no clue who I really am, make rude demands and slanderous quotes and, you know … at certain times of the month, I kind of let it get to me. I think it is more frustration on my part, because I know I am one of the free, truly independent, and oh-so-genuine cam girls and I work my ass off to make my site a nice place where we can all forget about our normal lives for awhile, and the last thing I need to hear is some punk-ass blasphemy when I am being the best I can be. As far as family, they know (Grandma, aunts, cousins and brothers; and they all support me). Mom and Dad are clueless, just like they always have been about their little girl. As far as my friends … the ones I surround myself with know and are cool with it because they see the whole of it, not just the … voyeur end of it. I think they get a kick out of it. As far as my old schoolmates and boyfriends, as they find me here they all say the same thing: they are surprised I did not engage in something like this sooner … I guess they knew me better than (I knew) myself. Really though, as far as those that know me personally … I have yet to have one person chastise me about it and that feels good, to be as supported as I am.

TS: As far as members go, what can a person expect once they join your site? I mean, the still photos are quite alluring; what else is inside your site?

A: This is the place no one believes is what it is. As technology allows, I will soon engage in live audio and video streaming so that will be very cool! There is A LOT more going on in members’ (areas) than in guests’. The refresh rate on the main pic is MUCH faster, so you do not miss much; I never turn that cam off. As a new member enters my chat (and a pity to the new ones that are afraid to chat with me) for the most part I engage in what I call “all-request initiation.” This usually catches them off guard. It is what it means. It is their one chance as a new member to have me do for them just exactly what they thought they came there to see me do. It is a way to personalize what is going on between them and me, and it helps me to understand what they enjoy, visually and sexually, as a rule. I try to warn them before they join that this happens, so be prepared. All the regular members get pretty pumped when a new guy or couple comes into chat because they know something good is coming.

TS: Are there any MPGs or VHS videos members can order?

A: Now I have an extended media section in there, and (to augment it) is one of my next big projects. There is also the archive section, where you can see my pics from EVERY show I have ever done. One can browse the open forum to find out where the hot cam shows are. There are also 1-3 minute AV clips of various sex acts … some of them shocking or, as I prefer (to call it), educational. I plan to do more personal spoken word on both the members and guest (pages). I have worked with a few producers and (have) a couple new projects in the works. You can find them through the “modeling” page, or I might do a custom video … if the price and request is reasonable.

TS: Do you consider yourself an artist, exhibitionist, porn star, or all or none of the above?

A: Well, I do my share of porn (on the site) but ONLY there. It is my safe place to express ALL of who I am and that is such a gift, but I feel porn star is not really an appropriate title in this situation. But, yeah, I think the exhibitionist and artist … and producer is more in order. I spend more time producing than any thing.

TS: You seem to be around my age (32); what background did you come from? I was kind of in the punk scene in school, others were rockers or whatnot … did you have a scene?

A: I was a rocker in the woods, but I made honor roll. I was the biggest virgin slut in school.
I was, um … hated by the girls and was surrounded by boys ALWAYS.

TS: Do you vote?

A: I vote. I also frequently partake in community service because I feel it takes individual activity to increase the quality of life not just for myself, but also for my surroundings, my neighbors and their children. I do think that in light of recent events, if everyone did some form of volunteer work instead of waving a flag, that seems very patriotic too. The whole force of the cosmos changed that day. Go spend an hour per month with old people, with kids. Give blood. Do something. That hour goes a long way in the heart.

TS: Where can we see you other than your site, do you have big projects coming?

A: You can see me at www.garyandersonphotography.com. Also, my recent work at http://venusisle.com.

TS: Favorite sexual positions?

A: ON TOP BABY!

TS: Favorite band(s)?

A: Crazytown and Charlie Hunter (what a contrast).

TS: City you want to live in?

A: Seattle. I am native and I am nuts, but this is my type of urban culture. NY frightens me.

TS: Number of boyfriends/girlfriends you’ve had sex with?

A: OMG, you want me answer that? Girls? Hundreds each.

TS: Most visited site on the net?

A: www.Kazaa.com DOWNLOADS!!

TS: Favorite non-computer activity other than sex?

A: Power lunch with my pals.
TS: Cool, much appreciate your time … it was very enjoyable!!

A: *kiss*

The Clothes Culture

Teenage fashion: Where did all the crazy looks of past and present come from? Who made growing your hair long or greasing it back fashionable? Who ever said that leather jackets were cool? And for God’s sake, who gave Elvis that freakin’ haircut? Well, believe it or not, the majority of the fashions circulating in today’s youth culture begin in Britain following many years of economic hardship brought on by both World Wars. From the sagged out bell bottoms of the hippy generation to the pumped up pompadours of bands like the Clash and the Cramps, youth fashion screams Britain, and one group in particular really made the mark: the Teddy Boys.

During the World War II years in Britain, many of the working class adult men had gone off to fight; this left jobs open for their sons to fill. This is really one of the first times in history that the youth occupied paying positions away from home. (During World War I, industrialism hadn’t fully taken hold yet to provide many jobs away from home.) The lean war years provided the opportunity for these boys to save quite a bit of cash, and when the war ended and the adults took over the job market again, this gave the boys the time to spend all this cash they had earned. This was something that was not seen before, youths with money to burn, which gave them the ability to live a carefree lifestyle away from home (this, in turn, goes hand in hand with the ability to think for oneself, buy what you want to buy, etc.). The modern-style teenager was born.

Among these early teenagers on the streets of London in the late ‘40s and early ‘50s were a growing number of working class youths striving for an identity. These youths took to wearing romantic Edwardian clothes, velvet jackets and ruffled shirts mixed with the very popular western cowboy look of the American west (sounds crazy doesn’t it?). This style was in direct conflict with the gray and drab post-war look and lifestyle of their parents, whom were raised on Victorian ethics. The fashion of these youths was dubbed “the Ted look” (Ted being short for Edward, from the Edwardian style of dress). The first newspaper to use the term “Teddy Boy” was the Daily Express, on September 23rd, 1953. (At that time, Elvis Presley was still just a truck driver.) This smart and dapper style of dress was really the beginning of teen- fashion-conscious culture in the 20th century.

The Teddy Boys liked to hang out at local dance halls in England, and listen to the new sounds that were coming from America, as well as early British soul. They often engaged in street warfare with other gangs of Teddy Boys, using straight razors as their preferred weapon of choice. The groups’ numbers seemed to grow and grow, and the Teds earned a great reputation for fighting and vandalism. As their reputation bloomed, it wasn’t long before American youths were on the Teddy Boy bandwagon.

As in Britain, American youth were ready for something new as well. These teens also for the first time had expendable cash, and plenty of time on their hands (any parent will tell you, complacency breeds delinquency). The American youth took to the Teddy Boy look with their own form and vigor. They took the early long coats of Zoot Suiters and coupled them with thin, stovepipe pants and slim ties. American Teds often wore suede creeper-type shoes with crazy patterned socks; this look in America was partially pulled from the heavy country western influence in music at the time. In Britain and in America, the only thing that could top these crazy looks (and it was quite crazy at the time) was a new, outrageous, grease-ridden hairdo called the pompadour.

The coming of rock ‘n’ roll was almost too perfect for the Teds in both countries. They immediately adopted it as their own music, as did millions of other teenagers of the time. In Britain, the Ted Boy look was still basically the same, but in America it was changing. The long coats and pipe pants had progressed into Levis, white T-shirts and black leather jackets; this was the new bad boy look. Of course, nothing could kill the pompadour: this was still the pride of any Ted.

The movements continued and flourished on both sides of the sea, but the once wild-and-crazy looks had become generally accepted, although probably still frowned upon by conservative adults. The Teds of the 60-70s show that the movements had taken different paths in America and in Britain. American Teds had turned into rockers. Long hair replaced grease, and leather jackets and motorcycles were still popular, but the music was straight hard rock (many of these long-haired rockers later evolved into hippies). In Britain, the Teds had discovered their roots: early rockabilly and country, as well as early rock ‘n’ roll bands that their older Ted comrades had enjoyed. This revival movement in Britain turned the Teds into what was called “rockabilly rebels’” (there was even a small offshoot of this movement that were white power, wearing confederate flags and such; it was short-lived). These rockabilly rebels became the new tradition of British Teddy Boys. (The Teddy Boy term was pushed to the wayside, although the styles and music were the same)

Rockabilly and the rockabilly rebels have flourished in Britain since the ‘70s. The movement, while not exactly huge, has always maintained quite a following. In America, the Teds who became rockers soon became heavy metal heads. The originally Teddy Boy ideals were pushed out, not really maintaining any following. The styles of the original Teds, however, flourished in the rockabilly scene (which was, and is, quite small in the U.S.) and live on almost unchanged.

In the late ‘70s and early ‘80s (once again in Britain) a new movement started from earlier ska and Oi-type music: it was called punk. This too was a flamboyant style of dress: mohawks, leather, bondage gear … and it had its own style of hard-driving, anti-authoritarian music and bands. In the pubs of South London, it wasn’t long before Teds and punks started to mingle (they all shared the same pub space for bands to play) and this mingling turned the scene into something entirely different: psychobilly. The amalgamation of punk, Goth and rockabilly, it is said psychobilly was wholly influenced by the Cramps, but the Meteors were really the first 100% psychobilly band.

Now it’s the ‘90s: psychobilly is really starting to take off all over the country as disenchanted youths and middle-age punks look for an outlet in a music scene dominated by rap and pop. This psychobilly trend is bringing back many of the fashions of the early Teds. You can see it even at popular import stores, such as target, where flame-covered bowling-style shirts dominate the spring and winter fashions. Large, heavy-soled shoes are very popular as well, along with chained wallets, sideburns and tattoos. These are all marks of the Teds, brought to us from late ‘40s and ‘50s Britain. Back stronger than ever.
