Did I say otherwise? Yes you can be a victim of violence everywhere, but this industry includes intimacy and a lot of secrecy. That's pretty easy to understand. Once again I want to mention that not all or even most clients are violent.. but some are.

You can also be a victim of violence within the industry, without being an overall victim just because you're a sex worker. Two things can be true. You can consent to certain things, and have your consent taken away by certain individuals. You can also end up doing things you didn't want to do...

It's how journalism works yes, to a degree, but that's still a bias and the way he contacted people in the industry didn't show his true intentions.. It's not just agencies that are shown in this episode, and the way they are exposing this "bad side" makes it hard for anyone involved to take it...

Yes I see what you mean but her story is still very confusing to me. It doesn't seem like she had a lot of street smarts when she began. She explains that she was a people pleaser with a hard time saying no, very naive and sheltered too.. and that she had another image of what this industry...

That's true. I think it does make people think twice, and it can also be a red flag if somebody refuses minimal screening, in my opinion.. If you don't want to screen you have other options anyways.

I agree but at the same time, why is it mandatory in the first place? If it wasn't mandatory at any agency, things would be very different. Only the girls who truly want to do it, would be offering it. Also I agree that it should be YMMV. I know this isn't something people here want to hear...

If you look at other interviews with her, she says that she initially started as a sugar baby, and she didn't know she would have to sleep with men.. which unfortunately used to be common. She was assaulted by one of the guys, then she revealed that to another ''daddy'' who told her that she...

It's sensationalist for sure. That doesn't mean this fucked up doctor doesn't exist tho.. I also suspect that guys who seek "barely legal"' girls aren't the most chill dudes. But yeah it's impossible that all clients of agencies are that bad. I'm pretty pissed overall tho lol. This journalist...

The difference is that paying for auxiliary services isn't the same as having an employer. These people are working for you. But it is true that if you work for an agency someone is taking care of admin work for you.

Yes I just said that "radical feminists" are harmful for us.. being friendly to sex workers rights and pro decriminalization is progressive and anchored in reality. What I'm saying is that these "radical feminists" secretly hold similar beliefs as conservative evangelists and share similar...

When I say ''conservative'' I'm not talking about the Canadian political party, I'm talking about what conservative Christian values usually represent. Most political parties have a wide variety of beliefs, some are progressive and some are less progressive. If it is more right leaning, it will...

I briefly looked at their website... I don't want to look into it too much... and yes they claim to be a feminist organization. But I'm not talking about ''conservatives'' as in the conservative party. I meant that it is inherently conservative in values to be against sex work. Radical feminism...

Which feminist organizations? A lot of these organizations are not really ''feminist organizations''. They are supposedly ''anti trafficking organizations'', that's not the same as a ''feminist organization''. And a lot of them are misinformed, they target the entire industry instead of actually...

Not all feminists are against sex work, and it's inherently conservative and misinformed to impose these restrictions on sex work even if it comes from a more liberal government, because it harms marginalized women & people generally, and promotes an ideal of women being ''sexually pure'' and...

No, the logic is that conservative men want to benefit from prostitution but they don't want prostitutes to have any agency and they want us to be punished and have nowhere to go. People like Donald Trump made Fosta Sesta happen, and we all know he is a rapist and a pedophile and probably has...

Most merb users actually don't look at lounge posts.. or not as often as some others. Oui parce que pour certaines d'entre nous c'est notre revenu. Je me sens vraiment mal pour les femmes qui travaillent chez Euphoria en ce moment. Pour les clients vous avez peur de perdre accès à ces...

Il est nommé seulement parce qu'une journaliste a prétendu vouloir se faire engager par l'agence et il s'est présenté.. Mais, oui, la police s'en calice et en effet, tout le monde s'en calice aussi. les élections viennent d'arriver.. il y a d'autres sujets d'actualité plus importants en ce...

Yes that's what I'm saying. When one or both are criminalized, it actually does not reduce harm, it creates more harm. Even if they say it's to ''eliminate trafficking'', it's a lie. It's just conservative values. No women and children are being protected with these laws. It just pushes sex...

Honestly it's like when clients start making extremely misogynistic, victim blaming comments and accusing people of lying about what happened to them, that we are in dangerous territory here.. because it doesn't look good from an outside perspective to read clients like this. Yes, it sucks if...
