Wired talks to the horny housewives of erotic text messaging:
I thought erotic texting was like phone sex: You answer the phone and have a conversation with the client, trying to give him his money’s worth while keeping him on the phone long enough to make your employer happy.
But with text, it’s not a one-on-one relationship between client and provider. A whole group of text actresses respond to a single client, and each text actress responds to many clients in any given minute.
It’s like that game where everyone tells a story. You start telling it and stop midway and then someone else picks it up,” she says.
The messages come in to a group queue, where a text actress responds; it’s all done through the computer and the internet on the provider side, not mobile devices. When the client replies, a different woman might respond to it. A few minutes might pass and several messages might be exchanged before the same actress answers the same client’s text.
You have to follow the flow of the story and continue where they left off,” says GiGi.
