Phone Sex Operators
When you dial a 1-900 number, who picks up the phone?

Lessons for Virgins
I learned to listen to men in a deeper way. Tuning into men's voices, instead of getting caught up on their looks, was the same as a person suddenly going blind, only to find their other senses enhanced. I think if all women did phone sex before they lost their virginity, they would make much better choices.
Phillip Toledano's Phonesex project reveals not just the identity of operators who answer the phone when you call a 1-900 number, but their desires, fears, motivations, and most memorable calls.
The images and text in this photo essay are taken from the book Phonesex, which was published in September 2008 by Twin Palms.
