About Cherrystems
Cherrystems.com came out of the head of one Kate Winiarz. Unsatisfied with other sources of naked people on the internet, she set out to create something that she really believed in. A community for people who really believe that sexy is a word with a million interpretations, and a place where people could just be exactly as sexy as they want to be. Sounds like the kind of place a lot of people would like to hang out, no?
We're Canadian! Based in Winnipeg, Manitoba, with photographers all across this vast land from Vancouver to Halifax. The company is run by owner Kate Winiarz, with help from some lovely people. They are all thanked down at the bottom of this page.
At Cherrystems, we aim to include. We're a diverse society as a whole, so why should our erotica be anything less? Almost anyone can find their niche here.
Another driving force of Cherrystems is based in the respect awarded to those that choose to work in the sex industry. We are women and men from any walk of life, and we do take ourselves seriously. We all have careers outside of this website and carry on relatively normal lives. We're husbands and wives, girlfriends and boyfriends, workers, friends, brothers and sisters, grandchildren, and everything else that most people can call themselves.
What's terribly backwards is that society, through popular culture, highly encourages the over-sexualization of the human body, yet people who choose to be openly sexual themselves are often seen as morally inferior. We've all seen scandles involving female politicians or in high-standing positions and their steamy love lives. Unfortunately, being happy with your body and your sexuality does not imply ignorance. There is often a lot of negative language used to describe people that choose to be outwardly sensual or sexual, and rarely much positive.
Still, the sex industry is the oldest and (we feel) grandest one out there. It's time to reclaim ground and earn some respect for the people that are in this line of work. Starting here, who knows were we could go. For more information on working conditions in the sex trades, you can go here:
But back to the website itself...
The name Cherrystems itself was the creation of a lovely girl named Robyn. She's around, you'll probably e-meet her.
That brings us to the last section: Thank Yous!
This project was made possible entirely by volunteers. No one has received a single dime from this project since its creation in 2006. If you'd like to make an extra donation toward the startup costs and upgrading, email kate@cherrystems.com. Once we've assessed our cash flow, we'll be looking at donating profits to local shelters and sexual education programs in Canada.
A giant "Thank You!" goes out to all of the models. You've made this site what it is.
Enjoy the site!
