The famous St. Louis sex blogger that recently came out and revealed her previously hidden identity, Kendra Holliday of The Beautiful Kind.com is suddenly in a fight for the custody of her daughter.

“I have officially received the lawsuit papers from my ex-husband—he is suing me for full custody of my daughter,” Holliday said today. “The reasons listed in the lawsuit all point to my sexuality. I am shocked and disappointed that my ex would resort to this, as previously he supported my decision to come out. I am contacting lawyers today, and have set up a legal defense fund.”

We’ve detailed this all before but it’s been a rough year for Holliday who was fired from her job when they discovered her secret “pastime”, shut her blog down for a few months, regrouped and brought her blog back, quickly wrote  book and followed up that the transition to no longer being anonymous on October’s “Coming Out Day”. Now this.

Sounds like Asshat McExhusband, despite knowing about her blog well before he “came out”, smelled blood in the water, or even more likely, had a lawyer talk him up in to taking on a “winnable” case. Hopefully that won’t be the outcome. You know what we would do? Bang the judge and then hold on to all those photos of him in a ball gag, tutu and leather chaps…you know, for safe keeping.

Holliday is asking for donations to her legal defense fund, which can be made via The Sexual Freedom and Legal Defense Fund. (Enter the name “Kendra Holliday” in the special instructions box after clicking on the Donate button.)

We had a tip slip by us when we had already written our original story on The Beautiful Kind’s announcement, but it’s worth of an update.

Our friends at the Riverfront Times have released an in-depth story with lots of interesting childhood details that’s worth reading – NSFW: The St. Louis mom behind sex blog the Beautiful Kind is outing herself

Go for the story, stay for the classy photos of her dildo collection.

The native St. Louis sex blogger, The Beautiful Kind, has had a busy year. She’s disappeared, reappeared, and written a book already. What does an anonymous sex blogger do for an encore? Bleached butthole? One of those giant plastic fists? In the ear? Nope. Instead she decided to expose the one thing she hasn’t already put out there: Her name.

My name is Kendra Holliday, and I am The Beautiful Kind.

Apparently the time leading up to this decision wasn’t easy:

I fought my own fears the past few weeks. My body has been stressed – my jaw hurts from clenching it in my sleep. Last week I scheduled several important meetings, including giving my daughter’s school a heads up. They expressed concern for her, which I fully understand.

The fact that I am a parent living in the Midwest makes Coming Out an especially daunting endeavor, and I don’t take it lightly. Ideally, this bold career move will enable me to support the school and other worthwhile causes.

…like reading the childhood favorite “Everyone Masturbates” to the Kindergarten class.

Well done Kendra! This a big step and congrats on taking the scary leap.!

Oh and for those that were wondering. Yes, we already knew her name before all of this. What kind of gossip site would we be if we didn’t?! See, we can keep secrets, there just aren’t many of them we think are worth keeping.

Friend-of-the-site, fellow St. Louis based blogger and the one that always beats us in the “Local Blogger Who Uses the Word Tits the Most” contest every year, The Beautiful Kind has bounced back in a big way from her recent brush with blog mortality. First the blog returned in record time, stronger than ever, and now, an ebook entitled The Book of Goddess: Elevating Your Desirability to Mythic Proportions.

We got ahold of TBK, well not really…that guy in the photo above has “ahold” of her…to talk about the new book which you can read about and download your free PDF copy (great for iPads…you know, because the screen can just be wiped clean after doing the “homework”) at thebookofgoddess.com

Punching Kitty: We know the motivation to the message behind the book, but what was the motivation for the book itself? Why not just spread the same message through the blog?

TBK: I’ve been wanting to expand my repertoire for ages now, so writing an ebook seemed the next logical step. I finally got the time to do it when I get fired from my job! So this is my way of turning lemons into spiked lemonade. I cover so many topics on my blog, it’s helpful to present certain information in an easier take-home package.

PK: Do you have a favorite part? …ours is the “nutshell” tips in the conclusion.

TBK: You have good taste. This is my favorite part of the ebook:

The Problem with Fake Tits

Breasts should feel soft, and they should be pleasure zones. Don’t take a
knife to such sacred ground! The problem with fake tits is that it makes
the woman look like SHE CARES WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK. She cares so much
about what a handful of shallow strangers think that she will mutilate
herself to win their approval. Fake tits are a badge of insecurity (unless
we’re talking about reconstructive surgery).

Redefine beauty. Stop reading those magazines featuring the same recycled
content and skinny models. Seek out your own idea of beauty. Look at nature
for beauty – see the curve of a mountain, the dip of a valley, and then see
that in yourself. Beauty is REAL and can be found in the actual trees
themselves, not the glossy pages that come from pulverizing and processing
them.

The most important thing to realize about yourself:

You look great NOW. I can’t tell you how many women I know who curse the
fact that they were shy about wearing a bikini when they were in their 20’s
and a size 8. They thought they weren’t thin enough to pull it off. Now
they are 35 and a size 12 and WISH they were a size 8 again. So just wear
the fucking bikini, OK?

PK: Is there anything sexually you won’t share on your blog?

TBK: Three years ago, I kept a journal of my stint as a whore. I didn’t want to post the stories on my website, as they were too deep and had a different tone, so I held on to them, looking for the right venue. SexIs has been running the journal as a series: http://www.edenfantasys.com/contributors/the-beautiful-kind/

I also don’t share details that will incriminate my friends and loved ones, such as incest or infidelity. Many of the stories on my site are even more twisted than they appear! There are so many layers to a person’s sexuality.

PK: Who’s the celebrity you think would be the best in bed (both male and female)?

TBK: My guy is really into Halle Berry. He’d like to “MAKE HER FEEEEL GOOOOD.” I have a crush on Isabella Rossellini, she does that Green Porno series. http://www.sundancechannel.com/greenporno/ I think anyone who impersonates vicious bedbug sex and duck gang bang rape scenes would be awesome in bed.

PK: Oh yeah! We’ve run across that show…its…interesting.

Was there no thought in to trying to sell your book in some way?

TBK: Offering the ebook for free was a way to gain more exposure for my website. It was a test, and I think it went well. I want to continue to build my credibility and prove myself as a sex and relationship expert. A lot of the sex advice columnists out there are burned out or outdated. I’d be a great fresh replacement. I take it to another level.

PK: We love that this goes right on the old iPad, but what about working with a publishing site to create a “real” book?

TBK: I’d love to develop this ebook into a real book! Bring it!

PK: Any more books in there? Is this the first of many or one of a kind?

TBK: I have plenty of book ideas – I’d like to do one featuring relationships, or one all about fetishes, one about first sexual experiences, a holiday erotica anthology…

PK: In your “Fashion Police” section you say to avoid Crocs. There’s no question here, just wanted to say thank you for that.

TBK: You are welcome. A girlfriend of mine recently complained, “One of the problems with online dating is you can’t tell if they wear crocs or sandals ahead of time.”

PK: This book is geared toward the ladies, any interest in a “How not to be gross” tome for the fellas?

TBK: Oh sure, I could do that. Would be nice if my man wrote that one, as people have said, “I wish I could be his cock!”, but he’s just along for the ride. One book I suggest for men is “The Way of the Superior Man” by David Deida. I reviewed it here: http://thebeautifulkind.com/reviews/books/how-be-superior-man

PK: Well thanks for taking the time to answer a few questions. Good luck with this book, the blog and anything in the future!

TBK: This is my calling – I want to make a living out of TBK. Please spread the word about my sex positive mission! I aim to inspire with my openness and honesty. America still has too many hangups about sex, help me work the kinks OUT!

It’s May 17th! The Beautiful Kind is back in action!

Here’s a picture of a cat in a box:

We’ve been hot and heavy, so to speak, with the story about locally based erotic blog The Beautiful Kind’s sudden disappearance from the interwebs. In our last post, that featured the back story and a message from “TBK” herself to our readers, we closed with the following open questions:

Once again we wish TBK the best going forward and although it’s probably hard for her to look to the future right now, we are left wondering:

Will the blog be back? Is the interest and drive still there?

Today we got our answer.

According to the video posted on The Beautiful Kind.com entitled “The Beautiful Kind Issues a Statement” (embedded below) the site will return on May 17th, less than a week from today.

No other details have been included, but we would assume that TBK will continue to be known publicly by only her nom de plume and stick with the whole anonymous thing, such as it was.

We couldn’t be happier that TBK is getting back to “business” and we look forward to the follow up post on people peeing in each others butts.
