The XXX fetish tag-team from Austin, Texas, took a break from whipping and prodding each other on stage to bare it all for Creative Loafing.

-How would you describe a Stryker Vawn performance?

2 parts burlesque, finely chopped

1 part Vaudeville, peeled and pressed

6 parts perversion, stewed in sex butter

3 parts fantasy, drizzled with honey

1 part fury, ground coarsely

Mix contents vigorously in your mind until creamy thick.

-Do relatives know about your alter egos?

In the beginning there was always a family member at our shows. Over time it has leaked and some approve, others do not, but they do not talk about it. They might be afraid to bring it up.

-What are your day jobs?

Stryker is a steel fabricator and the foreman for a genuine Texas good ol’ Boy company.

Vawn started a bachelor party service in 1998, so she’s naked and performing most of the time.

-What would fans be most surprised to learn about your act?

That the show they just witnessed is the "G" rated version.

-Have your performances ever landed you in legal trouble?

We modify each show according to each city, and we are banned from the club district in Austin. We have G rated and XXX versions to choose from.

-Considering how often Vawn is nude, has there been any requests for Stryker to bare it all?

Absolutely, but he likes his leather on. We are currently working on a video project where that request will be fulfilled.

-What is the most pornographic thing y’all have done on stage?

We have done everything, AAAALLLL the WWWAAAYYY!

-Are there any limits to what y’all will or won’t do on stage?

No intentional skin tearing, intentional burns, or intentional bruises, but we throw down, like a dirty wrestling match.

-What’s the strangest reaction you’ve gotten to your act?

Positive: A girl jumped on stage, ripped her clothes off, and begged for us to take her… We did.

Negative: At a Halloween show in Texas, two audience members vomited from shock.

-Have you ever considered performing at a strip club?

We used to perform in strip bars all the time. We love it. We miss it.

-Do you create music to fit the act, or do you stage an act to fit your music?

The music is written with the show concept in mind, then tweaked to fit the performance, or vice versa.

-Your wardrobe would make any fetishist drool. Do y’all design your own outfits?

We design some and send it to a very talented Latex Nemesis to complete the design. We also purchase from Libidex, Rubber55, and Fetish Factory.

-How does one break into fetish work?

Vawn: I knew at 17 I wanted to be on stage, naked, playing games.

Stryker: He makes his own leather wear and was asked to create a fashion show. The runway was so boring that he took his designs and created a fetish show. The owners asked him to return the next week with a different show. That continued for six straight years.

-What do you say to those who call your act immoral or disgusting?

Vawn: Those people are my favorite chew toys

Stryker: Don’t care. Fuck ‘em.

-What would success look like for Stryker Vawn?

A permanent Vegas show with an unlimited budget, lights, sound, and some illusions mixed in with the fetish act... oh, and as many show girls as needed, unlimited champagne—this is all fantasy of course. As far as our future plans, we have videos coming up. Vawn is working on a naughty project, coming out within the next year, and we are building content for a members’ website as we speak.
