Dear white clients: if us Asian SWs don’t specify our ethnicity please don’t push. We have our valid reasons, maybe including (like me) not wanting our race to be a major defining point of our persona and service. It’s weird when you throw out guesses in the booking. So don’t. <3

Also lots of SWs actually DO BOTH - a full time low income job (or two) PLUS sex work. Want to end sex work? End the gender pay gap, raise the minimum wage, protect workers rights, lower the cost of living and discrimination against marginalised groups. Then we can talk 'kay?

@fatfabfeminist Linzi Hateley who played her in the infamous 80s musical has been the only chubby Carrie in a film or professional version of the musical. (The musical itself was massively rewritten and overhauled into something actually good in the early 2000s but thin actresses play Carrie.)

Is anyone else not a fan of how sex without condoms is referred to as “natural”, as though using protection is unnatural? I don’t like the stigmatising language like “safe”/“unsafe” or “clean”/“unclean” but I don’t like the implication of condom sex being the weird sex either.

Asking a SW if you get a discount (or a freebie! YES THIS HAPPENS) because you're "young"/"fit"/"good looking"/"white"/whatever is like if I went to my hairdresser and was like "my hair is so nice your reward is getting to just touch it".

Unless the escort has a policy of not sending personal selfies to any random who asks for one. Well, a request like that will certainly "sort the chaff from the wheat", but not in the way you might be thinking. 🙃

Why is it always the inquirers who self identify as "respectful" who then make a request the total opposite of that, i.e. for a discount or services your ads clearly say you don't offer? Good eggs never say how good they are, they show by example.

@benjaminrhood Trafficking, rape and assault are already crimes, decriminalising sex work won’t change that. All the Nordic model does is make work more dangerous for SWers. But we get it. We know that’s the point. You want sex work abolished and if SWers die in your crusade that’s fine.

Advocates of the Nordic model don’t want us to be able to work safely. They think they can end sex work by making it more hazardous, forcing us to quit and rely on other forms of labour. Those of us who are harmed and m*rdered are, what, an acceptable sacrifice? Support decrim!
