Mata Hari


Mata Hari (Indonesian for 'sun': 'eye of the day'), was the stage name of Margaretha Geertruida Zelle (7 August 1876: the Netherlands ~ 15 October 1917: France). She moved to Paris in 1903 and by 1905 began to win fame as an exotic dancer. Her style and free-willed attitude made her very popular.

She was a courtesan to many high-ranking allied military officers during this time. On one occasion, when interviewed by British intelligence officers, she admitted to working as an agent for French military intelligence, although the latter would not confirm her story.

On 13 February 1917, Mata Hari was arrested in her room at the Hotel Plaza Athénée in Paris, accused of spying for Germany. She was found guilty and was executed by firing squad on 15 October 1917.

In 1985, biographer Russell Warren Howe convinced the French Minister of National Defense to open Mata Hari’s file; it was revealed she was innocent of espionage charges.

To Decriminalise Prostitution

I first saw this in Harlot's Parlour; this does an excellent job of rebutting the foolish and illogical statements of those who oppose decriminalising prostitution. The arguments in favour of decriminalisation are presented here in a highly intelligent and sensible way.

Sekhmet: The Great Harlot



Sekhmet, goddess of ancient Egypt: although she is a goddess of untamed violence, death, and blood, she is also a goddess associated with the wild ecstasy of love and sexuality. Hers is the unleashed feminine sexuality, powerful and intensely passionate, which can frighten many people.

It is this untamed female sexuality which has frightened the christian church; within the book of revelation, she is denounced as the Great Harlot, and called “Babylon the Great, the Mother of Harlots and of Abominations of the earth.”

"So sweet and delicious do I become,
when I am in bed with a man
who, I sense, loves and enjoys me,
that the pleasure I bring excels all delight,
so the knot of love, however tight
it seemed before, is tied tighter still."
— Veronica Franco (Poems and Selected Letters)
