“It has been incredibly liberating to come
from such a repressed family...”
That need to shield them, Itsol explained, was a gut reaction produced by the “guilt and
trauma” they had instilled in her at a young age.
“My parents were missionaries and very strict Christians,” Itsol said. “When I was younger,
they would call me slurs. And, I’d say, ‘You’re a bad parent,’ and my siblings would come after
me. That’s a trained response learned from my parents saying, ‘Hey, you need to defend me.
I’m the good guy here.’”
Today, Itsol has found community in the adult industry and feels empowered to experiment
and explore for fun, film, and fulfillment.
“I enjoy exploring my kinks; I’m a very kinky person,” Itsol said. “Whether it’s electroshock
stuff, crops and whips, fire play—I always want to try something new or something I may not
even like, like sounding.”
Sounding is “when you stick something up your urethra,” explained Itsol, who was sounded
during her Prince Albert piercing with a toothpick (“That fucking hurt…but felt good too because
it was lubed up first.”).
Itsol’s commitment to kink made her feel like the belle of fetish balls in Las Vegas, Los Angeles,
and San Francisco this year, where she impressed as the only attendee in a “bitch suit,” an
outfit that ties ankles to hips and hands to shoulders, forcing the wearer to crawl on knees
and elbows (“Like a puppy!”).
“It has been incredibly liberating to come from such a repressed family,” Itsol said. “I grew up
very sheltered in the South, in Arkansas. Doing porn is so freeing because I’ve escaped the
guilt and shame I used to feel whenever I would pleasure myself.”
Shaking her head with an incredulous smile, she continued, “I would masturbate, and I’d feel
so awful, like I had fucking murdered millions of people. Because that’s what I was told. That
my sperm, my seed, was all of God’s children that I had just fucking massacred. Like, worse
than the Holocaust. Oh, my fucking God...these people!”
