Zoe, too broke for plans, finds herself at a free Friday-night orgasm workshop. She leaves dissatisfied — and with a tempting job offer.
Photo-Illustration: The Cut; Photos: Getty The Climaxing to Consciousness group met every Friday in a hot yoga studio on Canal Street above a store advertising ten-dollar aura readings. Zoe had been persuaded to come by her roommate, Tali, who had hair the color of Windex spray and said things like your pussy is your power. She had agreed solely because the class was free, which meant it was the only thing she could afford to do that night.
And so, her Friday night plans had been reduced from dinner at Indochine with her Tisch friends to attending this complimentary sex positive meet-up with her slightly unhinged roommate. At nineteen, Zoe was substantially younger than most of the men and women settling into a semi-circle on the wooden floor when she arrived. She thought that, if asked to describe the group afterwards, she would sum it up by saying there were two people present wearing, for no functional purpose, leg warmers.
“Welcome,” said Kyle. “No need to be nervous. We’re all a bunch of weirdos in here, but the good kind, I promise. Now, hopefully you already know a little bit about Climaxing to Consciousness and what we do here.” Tali glanced sideways at her disapprovingly but the other girl, the pretty bulldog, met her eyes and smirked. Zoe had always been good at connecting with one other person in a group this way. “Connection through rejection” or “bad behavior bonding” was what her counselor at the therapeutic boarding school she’d been sent to called it.
“How did that moment make you feel?” whispered Kyle. “Scared? Exhilarated? Angry? Really sink into that feeling.” “I’m a Sugar Baby,” she said proudly. “I’m on this website called Daddy Dearest that pairs gentlemen of a certain means”—she pulled her palms from Zoe’s and curled her long lilac nails into air quotes—“with girls like me. You have to be in college or have graduated to be a Baby. They just have to be rich. It’s men who want attractive but, like, educated girls to take to work functions and business meetings and such.”“Sleep with them?” Portia said brightly. “That’s between you and your Daddies.
Zoe laughed and took the card. It was thick, matte black, with Portia’s name and the words Sugar Baby scrawled in hot pink above the website address. On the flip side was a silhouette of a woman. She could have been anyone.
