Internet Erotica - Kissyfish

 -[ Web cams these days are covering the internet, almost every site you visit is showing you someone's office, kitchen, or bedroom. Web cam articles have been in local papers, mentioned on the radio and even been on mainstream news shows like 'inside edition'. While most of these were stories were fairly informative, I wanted to get at the real girls behind the cams...To get some answers as to what they were really like, not some played up Hollywood shocker! ]-

This month we have a visit with Kissy Fish. She was real fun to talk to, has some excellent photos, and a cool site. Check her out online at http://www.kissyfish.com if you really want to see more of this tattooed punk chick in the flesh. Her webcam runs constantly and she has some visitor gallery photos for you to check out. Of course the real juice comes from joining the site, then you will get all the good stuff.


TooSquare: How did you get the name Kissy Fish?

Kissy Fish: Oh my, *LOL* this is an old story! :) Back in the day, I used to wake up, make some coffee and hang out in the AOL chat rooms. One day I met a girl named Kissy Fish, and we started talking and, well she took my cyber virginity *Grin*. A year or two later I took the name myself in her honor, and it stuck. That was probably about 6-7 years ago!

TS: Wow, so you have been on the Net quite a while then. When did you first go online, and when did you start messing with computers?

KF: Depends on your definition, I suppose :) I think I started playing with computers on a regular basis around 93-'94, though I had on and off access to them for years before that. (My uncle has worked for Analog Devices for years, and was always showing me computers stuff when I was growing up.) Some people lump game consoles in with computers and in that case ... well, then I started with playing games on my Atari and Colecovision. ;)

TS: Thats cool, so you had an early attraction to the computer medium ... ahh. Colecovision ? I love Colecovision.

KF: Coleco was cool. :) I still have my 8bit NES. And I still play it as well. My viewers look forward to Topless Nintendo nights. *Snicker*


TS: So when did you hit the Net?

KF: Wow ... I just realized ... I went online about 8 years ago! *LOL* I didn't realize that it had been that long! :) I never really got into the BBS scene or anything. I moved in with the uncle I mentioned above, and he had AOL back when it was first starting. I remember downloading the new version of AOL, and I think it took something like 20 hours to download!! *LOL* Ah ... those were the days. *Snicker*

TS: Yeah, it was cool back in those days, a lot less crowded and so few ads. So I guess you take care of all the tech stuff for your site then?

KF: OOOOOOOOOOOH yes. heehee! I am the tech support, the site designer, billing admin., content, talent and writer for Kissyfish.com. ;) I sometimes get my boy to take pictures with my snazzy digital camera and occasionally have him play the stunt dick, but everything else is done by me. :)

TS: Doh! So what gave you the idea for a Web cam site, and what made you want to get naked?

KF : Ahh ... and here we have another amusing story. *Grin* OK, so here's the deal. Getting naked on the Internet came before the cam. :) I liked the idea of showing off my body, but I'm too curvy to be a stripper (read: I'm not coke-and-speed-addict thin -- I actually look like *gasp!!* a WOMAN. Therefore, I am too curvy for the industry), but I didn't know of any other way to show off, other than becoming a porno actress, which I can't do for a number of reasons. So, one day my boy and I are looking thru this pack of coupons that came in the mail, and we saw one for getting crazy freaky contact lenses. :) The doctor's office was around the corner, so we went over. We talked to him, ordered our lenses and left. When we went back to pick them up, his wife was also working with him. She asked us about our piercings, because she wanted one. Then she asked if we had any down there. We answered yes, and the conversation turned ... and in the course of that conversation it came out that she and I were both exhibitionists. And that she had a Web site up with naughty pictures. *Grin* So, I handed my eye doctor some naughty pics of myself I had around, and he put them up in a subdirectory of her site. :) The response was good, so I eventually learned HTML myself, and built my own site on adult free hosts. After I made my own site, I started looking around at other sites. :) I discovered Web cams, and ran out and bought the cheapest one I could find. *LOL* and it showed! *Grin* But I did pretty well with it by using good lighting. :)

TS: So how do you feel the Web cam has affected your life?

KF: Hmm that's a good question. *LOL* I feel its been mostly positive. And I've met a lot of people and made some really great friends by having a site, both fans and other camgrrrls. Strangely, having a 24/7 cam has made me value my privacy more. heh. Other than that, I don't think much has changed, really. Oh! It's caused me to be a lot more honest about myself.


TS:I read in your journal that you were a beauty pageant baby. What was that like, do you think that influenced your cam work?

KF: heh heh heh ... my dirty little secret! *Grin* Well, for me it was a lot of fun. I liked dressing up and being on stage and performing. When I was about 3, I told my mom I wanted to be a ballerina, so she signed me up for dance classes. I guess someone suggested to her that I give beauty pageants a try. She did, I liked it, and I kept doing it until I didn't like it anymore. :) It's probably influenced my cam stuff in that I'm very comfortable on stage and being judged by my looks. *LOL* I have a little bit of Leo in me -- wanting to be the center of attention and all that stuff. *Snicker* The cam is a perfect way to get that need fulfilled. :)

TS: I read that you got married again, but I couldnt tell if you meant it literally? If so, how many times have you been married?

KF: oh oh oh! *LOL* The getting married again is a silly Web site where you can get a virtual marriage certificate. *LOL* So I married another camgrrrl, my friend OpalCat. :) In reality, my husband and I got married almost 2 years ago. :) I call him "luckee seven" on the site. This is my only marriage. heh heh heh ... unless we decide to jointly marry a hot chick. ;)

TS: hehehe Sounds like you have a nice and open relationship.

KF: We sort of have an open relationship ... it depends on the person in question. :)

TS: On a more serious note, is your health OK? I read that you have to take percs and methodone ... those are pretty heavy...

KF: I have a severe case of endometriosis that just doesn't seem to want to get better. I've had surgery for it twice already. The methadone I take daily (10mg 3X day), and I take the percocet as needed. Methadone is a longer-acting narcotic without the super high (and super crash) of percocet. So, I take methadone as maintenance, and percs for acute pain.


TS: Ouch :(

KF: Everyone knows methadone as the drug heroin addicts take. *LOL* I haven't done dope in 7 years. *Giggle* It's also heavily used in chronic pain management. :) Yes ... its owie, but I'm used to it now, you know? I've been dealing with it for years -- and it's gotten really bad in the last year, which is why I finally broke down and had surgery again and started the pain clinic.

TS: From what your Web site journal says, you seem to have some interesting eating habits. Are you a vegan? What do you think is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?

KF: heehee! In mind, I'm actually a hardcore carnivore. But because of the stupid endometriosis pain, I've had to switch to a very strict vegetarian diet (vegan is usually a whole lifestyle change, whereas vegetarianism is usually just a dietary change). No meat, no dairy. It's hard to do! But it makes me feel better, so I keep up with it. *LOL* Strangest thing I've ever eaten.... hmm. I guess that would be fake ground beef. It's really weird. It tastes a lot like real ground beef, but it's not. And that's really freaky. :) I'm also a very weird cook. I generally just cut up a bunch of stuff, put some olive oil or butter (now margarine eww!) in there and bake it. *LOL* Carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin and onions taste very good this way. ;) And you might consider that weird. *LOL* In all the years I've been cooking that way, though (about 15 years now), only twice have I had it turn out AWFUL.

TS: On your Web site you call yourself a punk, do you mean this in the musical sense? What kind of music do you like and what is your favorite band?

KF: I guess at this point in my life, I'm more punk in ideals and lifestyle. I still listen to punk music, but I also listen to a bunch of other stuff. I'm just all about DIY, baby. *LOL* All my favorite haunts have been torn down or closed here in Boston ... most of the punk and hardcore shows are held in basements of the Knights of Columbus and the AOH and places like that. *LOL* Also, it's hard for me to walk and stand for long periods of time, so I don't usually go to shows anymore, because it breaks my heart that I can't dance, and I just have to sit on the floor and watch everyone else cut lose. *Sigh*

TS: Have you had any bad experiences related to your cam work? Any jerks? And if so, how do you deal with them?

KF: Of course I get jerks -- it comes with the territory. *Giggle* Im lucky -- I don't get too many, and I've gotten a lot less once I stopped posting my e-mail address all over the free area of my site. ;) Most of the time, I just ignore them. If the email is particularly funny/obnoxious, or if they just repeatedly e-mail me the same lame requests, I'll post the e-mail publicly in my journal, with the offender's email address. I found that once I started doing that, the e-mails slowed even more. *Evil Grin*

TS:HAHA! That is great.

KF: Then there are the cam girl review sites, and I just laugh at those. I was recently reviewed on Daign.com, and I was dying laughing! Oh yeah ... it's really great when I post pictures they send as well. *grin* For some reason, guys seem to think cam girls want to see pictures of their wieners. So I post those pics up as well, with their e-mail addresses. Some people like cam girls, some don't care, and some actively hate us all. I have no idea why. Personally, I rarely expend the effort to hate something/someone! But there are whole sites devoted to cutting cam girls down (like the aforementioned daign.com). *Shrug* Like I said, I just laugh at it all ... I find it amusing. My husband gets upset when he sees people bad-mouthing me, though.

TS: It seems like there are a lot of review sites and blogs popping up these days.

KF: Yeah, I know. :) I read some of them. *LOL* I don't take offense to any of it either its a joke (like Daign, who I've actually e-mailed numerous times and we're sort of friendly with each other), or the person has FAR too much time on his/her hands and a very unhealthy obsession, and I just ignore them. ;)

TS: How does your cam site do monetarily, does it make enough for you to pay for everything? Has business increased, decreased?

KF: Over time, I get more joins and fewer cancellations. :) So that's good. Even back when I first opened my members area, its always made enough to pay for its bandwidth bill. The annoying part is that I get more members ... and then my bandwidth bill goes up. *ROFL* So, I'm not rolling in the dough, but it does well enough to keep itself alive. If I was willing to make it a strictly porno show cam, Id probably make more money. But Im happy doing it the way it is now. :)

TS: Can you give a brief on what exactly someone can expect if they join your site?

KF: You get a lot more of what's in the free area. *LOL* Three archive galleries (cam pics, cam shows and high-quality camera pictures), erotic stories, chat, a more private diary, a faster cam refresh rate (20 seconds or streaming), and just lots of silly stuff that I add. The next new section to be added to the site is a recipe index. *Giggle* Oh, and if you're a member you get access to my members-only e-mail address, and all my instant messenger names so you can chat with me even when Im not in the chat room. :) Basically, you get to peek into the mind and life of a freaky, tattooed, pierced and dyed punk grrrl. *Grin*

TS: Obviously your hubby is fine with your work, how do friends and family feel?

KF: Actually, hubby doesn't like the cam too much heehee! He doesn't like the cam to show his face if we're being intimate (which I think is silly, since they all know what he looks like!), and he often feels that the site takes up too much of my time. But he's grown used to it over the years, and doesn't mind as much as he used to. *LOL* some of the cousins I'm close to know, and are cool with it. In fact, two family members want me to help them set up their own adult Web site! *LOL* My little brother knows and he's totally cool with it. He tells all of his friends! *LOL* He doesn't mind being on cam at all when he's over. My dad thinks the whole thing is amusing. My mom and grandmother know I work in the adult Internet industry making Web sites, but that's all -- they didn't want to know anymore, they said. *LOL* No one else knows -- Luckee and I just tell his family that I'm a Web designer. Oh, his siblings are aware that I do some kind of modeling, and that I was once in Barely Legal ... but they don't have any idea that I can be watched 24/7 on the Internet. :)

TS: Barely Legal, a Flynt publication, I think?

KF: Yes. :) We sent in a Polaroid that my boy took of me. Its of me sitting naked in front of the fireplace. One of my eight cats is in the pic with me. *LOL* It appeared in the June 2000 issue, in the Corky's Clubhouse section (like the Beaver Hunt sections).

TS: What is your favorite band?

KF: Motley Crue and The Donnas -- Woot! The Donnas rule! I saw them last month in Boston. :)

TS: What is your favorite movie?

KF: Argh ... um. Labyrinth and Natural Born Killers.

TS: What is your Favorite food?

KF: Luna Bars -- Nuts Over Chocolate Luna Bars :)

TS: Most visited Web site (other than yours)?

KF: Livejournal.com or nakkidnerds.com


TS: Can you give a sentence for all your potential fans out there?

KF: Hmm I can't sum up my site/life in just one sentence (Ive tried before *L*), so here's my favorite quote: "That which doesn't kill me only makes me stronger."
