Amyyy-oxxo, a former escort, has issued a stark warning to women considering entering the sex industry. After being held hostage and subjected to other violent acts, she believes the risks far outweigh the potential rewards.
Amy, now 23, began escorting in 2020 after losing her waitressing job due to the pandemic. Despite initially finding the work exciting and lucrative, she soon faced a harrowing reality. From being held at gunpoint to being beaten up, her experiences have left her traumatized.
She recounts numerous instances of violence, including being forced into a van by potential clients and being held hostage in a bathroom. Amy emphasizes the importance of having a driver or security escort, which she often described as a "pimp" to deter potential attackers.
Despite the dangers, Amy continued her work in the industry, even venturing into pornography and adult platforms like OnlyFans. However, the risks were too great, and she eventually moved to Australia for a safer environment.
Amy's story highlights the significant dangers faced by sex workers. According to the English Collective of Prostitutes, 90% of women in the industry have experienced some form of violence. She urges women to reconsider their choices, emphasizing the long-lasting consequences of such a dangerous profession.
