Oregon Dem House candidate outed as a dominatrix jumps at chance to ‘reclaim my sexuality’

November 19, 2023 | | Print Article

An Oregon Democrat congressional candidate who was exposed as a former Manhattan dominatrix is now reportedly embracing her past in typical liberal fashion.

Courtney Casgraux is her name, and although she wants to represent a suburb of the leftist city of Portland (go figure), those plans were disturbed when someone posted a clip to Reddit of her performing at a Manhattan BDSM dungeon.

“[I was] just panicking … Then I was like, ‘Who did this?’ and I just started calling every single person that I pretty much knew from my past. I was like hyperventilating, crying,” Casgraux, a 41-year-old native of California’s Huntington Beach, recalled to the New York Post this weekend.

Evidently, she used to work as a dominatrix in her 20s and 30s earning $500 per hour. And then while staying in the Bronx during the pandemic, she reportedly briefly returned to the business at Donatella’s Dungeon — and that’s where she was reportedly recorded.

To this day, she doesn’t know who recorded her or why exactly they publicly released the footage. However, she staunchly believes the perp was out to “shame” her.

“To shame me for something that helped create the life that I have today where I have opportunity … made me really mad. Because it felt like an attack on women, not just an attack on me,” she told the Post.

Speaking of which, her past advocacy work “has included teaching puberty and menstruation courses at an LA Boys and Girls Club, as well as training displaced and trafficked women in technical trades through another LA-based nonprofit.”

Her current goal is to unseat Democrat Rep. Suzanne Bonamici, and she’s pursued this goal by focusing her campaign on voting rights, on abortion rights, and on reversing Oregon’s decriminalization of hardcore drugs.

But now that she’s been exposed, she’s decided to so-called reclaim her sexuality by creating a Playboy profile and selling raunchy pictures of herself for $150.

“Casgraux, who isn’t compensated by Playboy, also posts more weighty content on her account, such as an explanation of how Article 2 of the Constitution grants presidential powers and impeachment, and her views on challenges faced by small American farms,” the Post notes.

That said, so far she’s reportedly only raised a meager $757 from 13 donors, so things don’t look so great for her — though she plans to continue campaigning anyway.

“Once [the video] came out and I got the Playboy page, I was like, ‘Oh my God, I feel like I can just be me.’ And I could say the things that I wanna say, and I can be funny and be tongue and cheek with things, and reclaim my sexuality,” she told the Post.

She claims she’s mainly received positive feedback for her stunts, though she also argues that the campaign isn’t strictly about winning for her.

“If I can win, that’s incredible — let’s go to Washington … and we’ll make amazing legislation. But there’s no losing if I can make one woman feel like there’s no shame in your past and what you have done…You too can run for Congress,” she said.

In a separate statement to Fox News, Casgraux said she does “not feel Democrats have strong leadership” and that the Democrat leaders currently representing the party have “compromised the nation,” including President Joe Biden.

She also complained about society allegedly being OK with sex-work purchasers working in Congress but not OK with sex workers working there.

“Unfortunately, we live in a nation where there can be sex purchasers in Congress, but not still not sex workers,” she said.

Responding to the Post’s story on Casgraux, X users were full of jokes and other commentary.
