Escorting and buying sexual services in the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.  May I make a few comments about the present laws.  This is my opinion and if you require accurate advice, then please contact the services of a legal representative.

Selling Sex

Selling sex is legal in all four countries.  There are laws regarding how you sell sex.

You are not allowed to work with another sex worker.  If you do, then you or both could be prosecuted for keeping a brothel.  This does happen and happens in many areas of London and Scotland. If you have a bad client or some gang who comes and robs you, then you have to think carefully about contacting the police when you are working with others.  You could be prosecuted. Sometimes the police instead of prosecuting will invoke a closure order on the premises barring any access to it for months.

You are not allowed to solicit for clients on the street.

It is perfectly legal to work for an escort agency.  Those running the escort agency are on the border of the law.  They are not allowed to control sex workers to make for gain. Proving an agency owner is not controlling is where the law becomes grey.

You must be over eighteen to sell sex.

There is also one other way sex workers are persecuted. If you are from an EU country working as a sex worker and don't have employment or are not in education, you could be expelled from the country. Selling sex is not considered work by the UK Government.

Buying Sex

It is legal to buy sex in three of the four countries.  The only country where it is illegal to buy sex in Northern Ireland. In NI you can be fined if the police discover you have paid for sex. The law has been in place for several years, and as far as I know, only one person has been prosecuted (this was written in late 2017).  The police do not consider this to be a priority and are instead working with sex workers in NI to help protect them.

It is also illegal to buy sex from someone who has been coerced into selling sex. Even if you feel the sex worker was willing and you saw no reason that she was being forced, you are still liable.  This is called strict liability. This law is relevant to England and Wales.

You are committing an offence when buying sex from someone under 18.

It is illegal to pick a woman up from the street for sex.  This is called kerb-crawling.

In Scotland, England and Wales, as a client visiting a brothel, you are not breaking the law. If the brothel is raided and the sex workers are arrested, you are still free to leave. Don't talk to the police, because anything you say will be used to persecute and prosecute the sex workers. Don't admit to paying for sex, it will put their freedom in jeopardy.

Different regions of the UK implement the laws in different ways.  Some police forces do allow brothels and working flats to operate. It makes it safer for sex workers and makes it easier for the police to keep an eye on trafficking because they know where sex is being sold. In Leeds, they even have an area called Holbeck where street work is allowed to operate and sex workers and clients are not arrested.  Other regions of the UK have a zero tolerance of sex work and attempt in any way to disrupt it. It is all at the whim of the Chief Police Constable and the Crime Commissioners.

I love making you laugh or smile. I'm very easy going, but I also see myself as a thinker and innovator. I dont want to be just some person you engage with on a sexual level, but as a person that you engage with to help improve how you feel about the world; to improve your life in some small way, as crazy as that may sound.  While I'm not trying to cure cancer or anything like that, I do see myself in a lot of ways as a healer; sexually, that is.

Massage from an Escort

2024-10-03 elrond

Massage from an Escort

The world is fraught with a constant buzz and interruptions. There is so no time to relax and unwind. Stress builds up. Take the time to unwind and have some me time. Why not ask for help and ask a professional to provide space for you to unwind? May I make a suggestion, choose a professional for your massage, a professional who can provide you with a massage with those little extras which make for a blissful release from outside interruptions. Yes, I am suggesting you choose a full service escort to provide the massage. Let us look at the various aspects of this service.

 

Touch and Feel

Massage has been around to thousands of years, performed by both women and men. History records show us massage being performed in ancient China and Egypt over five thousand years ago.  You can bet your last dollar, that massage was performed well before historical records began.

Massage has always been about touch, and how this touch affects the recipient. There are all kinds of massage, from light a touch to deep tissue therapy where great energy and strength is required by the massage operator.  Thes massages are designed to leave the recipient free of stress, free of pain and totally relaxed.

Escorts

Adult services have been revolutionised by the web. These online homes allow escorts to advertise their services. Many full services escorts who advertise on BunnyAgent  also include massage on their options. Some are very specific and will perform different types of massage to suit their clients. Mixing a massage with some consensual erotic touch creates a feeling of wellbeing.

 

The Massage Experience

A massage from an escort starts like most massages. The masseuse must understand the clients’ requirements. This will start by asking the client what they want.  As the massage proceeds, the escort may try little variations to the massage and gauge the reactions of the client. Slowly both she and the client will understand his needs, preferences and barriers. The process is achieved slowly, building trust and ensuring the client is happy.

As the massage progresses, the touch and feel, the caress of hands-on body will build a sense of relaxation, expectation and finally euphoria,

 

 

The Appeal of Massage

The appeal of this type of massage, is the emotional and physical journey the client makes. A massage which starts slowly and builds as time progresses caters for the uncertainty of a new client. The slow massage allows the receiver to explore his/her emotions and desires. As time progresses the client can explore what they enjoy, and discover new sensations.

This allows the client to achieve new experiences from erotic touch in a safe and non-judgemental environment

 

 

The Personal Journey

To reinforce this, for many customers, booking an escort to provide a massage, is more than just a quick physical release. It is a journey, a journey of self-discovery which will ultimately leave the client to discovering new feelings from the lingering touch of the escort. This could be muscle relieve or could be the exquisite feel of touch on areas of their body which they have never discovered before. What ever the effect is, this feeling will bring with it, happiness, peace and happiness. Like being on top of the world.

Different clients will have different needs. Stress from work, pain from injury and muscle fatigue. Other clients may be exploring, they may be exploring their reaction to different types of touch, exploring their physical and emotional boundaries. They may be there just for a good time.

Conclusion

For many men and women, a massage from an escort is more than sexual relief. The massage is a journey, exploring their reaction to various types of touch. It often brings feelings of ecstasy alongside feelings of peace before the final climax. They will leave learning that touch and feel is a great foreplay to any sexual release.

How To Create The Best OnlyFans Account In 11 Sexy Steps

2024-07-04 elrond

https://www.pexels.com/photo/a-woman-video-recording-herself-using-a-cellphone-camera-12432832/ 

 

If you are reading this, that means that you are ready to jump into the wild world of OnlyFans content creation - you go! But setting up an account is not all there is to it - to make it into a personal goldmine, you have to figure out the right approach, the perfect angle, something that will set you apart from other content creators. Here are probably obvious but still very helpful (and sexy) tips to make your OnlyFans account the best it can be - meaning lucrative, of course.

Congrats On Your New OF Account!

Finally! In the time when everyone (I almost said  “and their mom,” but I rather wouldn’t) has an OnlyFans account, you can’t help but wonder why. You don’t even have to look into it to understand the appeal. OnlyFans is the easiest - and safest - way to make money from sex work, it is flexible, lucrative, and very accessible. 

 

You can set your own pricing and create any type of content you can think of, including exclusive content, and the platform will ensure you are compensated fairly for your work.

On OnlyFans, you can get as niche and as explicit as you want. It’s not like other adult content platforms that have requirements and their own idea of what works - here, you find your own audience. You have full autonomy when it comes to your content, your subscribers, and your pricing. 

Another great and surprisingly heartwarming aspect of OnlyFans is that it lets creators really connect with their fans. With special access and direct communication, things get more personal and close-knit. 

Although the community is great, OF is also very good about providing privacy and security. Your content cannot be shared without permission, and you can remain anonymous if you want, so no one has to know. 

11 Steps Of Creating The Best OnlyFans Account

Well, now you’re here, you’re becoming an OnlyFans creator because of all of those benefits. But how to make sure you don’t flop? There are so many beautiful and talented people out there - but how can we make you shine? Well, here’s how -

  1. Know Your Niche

First, you’ve got to figure out your niche. Are you a fitness fan? Do you like fantasy? Gaming? Fashion? Cooking? Skincare? Music? Kink? Your content doesn’t even have to be spicy - it probably will be, but you can make it on your terms, with your special interests involved. If you love what you do, it'll show, and your followers will feel it, too.

  • Be Yourself

Authenticity sells like hotcakes, and it’s true about adult content, too. The porn industry is oversaturated with bad acting and male-gaze-inspired cliches - so the real you, the real sounds, the real quirks, the real likes and dislikes are the things that are most attractive, most interesting about you. The more real you act, the more your subscribers can feel connected to you - and that’s what this platform is all about. 

  1. Create Killer Content

However cheesy it sounds, you know it to be true - quality comes before quantity. Get yourself a decent camera, use your smartphone - the tech support is not the main thing here, but make sure your lighting is on fleek. 

 

Your potential subscribers will appreciate the effort you put into high-quality photos and videos. 

Also, don't wing it - plan your content, create scenarios, experiment with different angles, and invest a little time in editing. It’ll pay off big time.

 

Give your fans something to make them feel special, privy to a big secret. Behind-the-scenes peeks, personal messages, or custom-tailored content can make a huge difference.

 

It’s always a great idea to team up with other OnlyFans creators for shoutouts, collabs, and cross-promotions - and it’s an exhilarating new experience, too. It’s a win-win for everyone involved and can really boost your visibility. 

  1. Be Kind To Your Audience

Even if you’re in a brat-taiming or Domme kind of relationship with your fans, be respectful, be attentive. Chat with them, respond to their comments and messages, and make them feel like VIPs. The more engaged they feel, the more likely it is that they’ll stick around and keep those subscriptions rolling in. Think of it as building your own little community. A simple "thank you" or another personalized message goes a long way.

  1. Bring Props

Now, to the fun part. Although any spicy content you create will surely be fabulous, going the extra mile and adding props is always a good idea. Beautiful lingerie, great backdrops, and toys - like machines or vibrators will all make your photos and videos juicier and, therefore, way more appealing to the fans.

 

Holding a toy up and being fully dressed in your promotional or free content will look enticing and promising, making people’s imaginations work - even if it’s just as simple as you and your favorite rabbit vibrator. 

  1. Promote, Promote, Promote

Promotion is not something we can sleep on, not in our world of feeds and notifications. Get your social media game on. Instagram, X, TikTok, Threads, Reddit - be where your audience is. Drop some teasers of your OnlyFans content on these platforms to reel people in. Just remember to play by the rules of each platform to avoid getting banned.

  • Instagram

Include a compelling bio that hints at what subscribers can expect on your OnlyFans page. Use emojis and line breaks to make it eye-catching. Share aesthetic photos and videos of yourself while maintaining the overall fleur of what you’re trying to promote - wink-wink. 

 

Post sneak peeks or teaser content with strategically placed emojis over the spicy parts to encourage your followers to subscribe to your OnlyFans for more good times. Also, use things like Linktree to include your OnlyFans’ account link, as Instagram doesn’t allow direct OnlyFans links.

  • X (Formerly Twitter)

Thankfully, X is much friendlier to spicy content than Meta products are. Here, you can compose a clear, concise bio with a link to your OnlyFans - no shying away, just direct info. Pin a tweet with a direct link and an irresistible call to action. Tweet regularly with a mix of promos and some cute and relatable personal updates to keep your subscribers engaged. 

  • TikTok

Although much less spice-friendly than X, TikTok allows you to get creative. Many content creators out there manage to post spicy content by masking it, making it inconspicuous, like giving a glimpse of naked flesh while showing your new manicure or slightly turning your camera angle and “accidentally” showing a whole wardrobe staked with sex toys. 

 

Film short, funny, relatable clips that show what a person you are. Participate in trending challenges and use popular songs and sounds to try and go viral. Have fun and be relatable  - the TikTok algorithms favor that. Adding text overlays with calls to action, such as "Link in bio for exclusive content!" to direct viewers to your OnlyFans account, can also help with traffic direction.

General Tips

Regular posting is a no-brainer. Create a content calendar to help you post regularly. It can be daily, weekly, or bi-weekly, just keep it consistent. Fans appreciate knowing when they can expect new releases from you.

 

Cross-promote your content across all three platforms. Share your TikTok videos on Instagram and Twitter, and vice versa. Use the analytics tools provided by each platform to track performance and avoid underperforming content styles. 

 

And finally, make sure you comply with each platform’s community guidelines because no one wants to get banned.  

 

  1. Treat It Like A Business

Treat your OnlyFans as a business - because it is. Create a consistent brand image, make it look good, appealing, and maintain a professional approach to your subscribers’ interactions, collab offers, and content creation.

  1.  Price Smart

Don’t go crazy with pricing. Find a sweet spot where you feel valued but also attract a good number of subscribers. You can always tweak your prices later if you feel it’s going well. Run special offers for new subscribers or discounts for loyal fans.

  • Run Promos And Discounts

Everyone loves a bargain. Offer discounts run limited-time promotions to stir up your subscription pool.

  • Use Pay-Per-View (PPV) Messages

Send exclusive content to your fans for a small extra fee. Make sure the content is worth the price - make it special and valuable.

  1. Do Live Streams

Live streams are a must - because if OnlyFans is about building connections, a live stream is as close to a real conversation with you as your fans are ever going to get. Plus, they can tip you during the stream, making up extra earnings. 

  1. Ask For Tips

Since you’re communicating with your fans, ask what they want. Whether it’s tips or recommendations, people who love your content will be happy to help you make it better - either giving you some ideas on what to film next or even technical advice on how to upgrade your quality. 

  1. Keep Learning And Improving

Don’t let yourself fall stagnant - with so much competition out there, it’s important to keep evolving. Always look for ways to do better. Follow other successful creators, see what they do, take online courses, and stay up to date with the trends. 

  1. Have Fun

If you’re enjoying yourself, it will show. Real interest, real passion, real enjoyment are irresistible, and those will be the things that can make you an OnlyFans star. 

 

How To Have A Successful OnlyFans Account 

Although a lot comes into creating a lucrative OnlyFans page, there are some things you already have in you. Sure, you have to use the channels to promote, use good techniques to shoot content and facilitate a real business approach to managing collabs and pricing. 

 

But your passion, authenticity, and willingness to share are things that ultimately determine your OF success. An OnlyFans account is surely a journey, but it is fun, amazing, and incredibly regarding - and not only in regards to your earnings.

If your wife catches you cheating with prostitutes, a typical response would be to apologize and attempt to salvage your marriage. Or you could take a less conventional route and sue Apple.

A man in England has chosen the latter option. As reported by The Times, he is suing Apple for £5 million after his wife discovered his infidelity through the family iMac. Due to privacy concerns, the man has not disclosed his name or location.

Here’s what happened: The man was arranging meetings with sex workers using iMessage. Although he deleted the incriminating texts from his iPhone, they remained visible on the family iMac, which was synced via the same Apple ID. His wife discovered the messages and promptly filed for divorce, leading to significant financial loss for the man, which he estimates at over £5 million. Now, he wants Apple to compensate him for his losses.

In his lawsuit, the man argues that iMessage did not adequately inform him that deleting messages on his iPhone would not remove them from other devices. He believes that had his wife not learned of his actions in such a harsh manner, he could have had a rational conversation with her and potentially saved his marriage.

The man seeks to establish a class-action lawsuit on behalf of others who might not be aware of how their devices handle messages and who, like him, might not fully understand their actions. Apple has yet to comment on the situation.

In the meantime, anyone looking to keep their messages private should avoid syncing texts across multiple devices or ensure that iCloud for Messages is enabled. To activate it, go to Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Show All > Messages in iCloud > Use on This iPhone.

Feminist critics, resorting to outdated rhetoric, are blasting taxpayer-funded researchers for their efforts to improve sex workers' safety. The SWERV (Sex Workers Evaluate Reporting Violence) project, spearheaded by the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, Brunel University London, and the sex worker charity National Ugly Mugs (NUM), has secured nearly £1 million from the National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR). This grant supports the study of how NUM’s innovative services, such as the “NUMchecker,” enhance the safety and mental health of sex workers. Despite the clear benefits, feminists are labeling the researchers as “worse than old-school pimps.”

Rachel Moran, a self-proclaimed women’s rights advocate, has vehemently opposed the research, calling it a “self-evident disgrace.” Moran, whose notoriety stems from her book Paid For – My Journey Through Prostitution, argues that these funds should directly aid women in prostitution rather than support a research project. Her assertion that the researchers are akin to “vultures” profiting from the sex trade dismisses the real-world impact these tools have in improving sex workers’ lives. Moran’s perspective, while sensational, fails to acknowledge the complexities of sex work and the urgent need for practical safety measures.

Anna Fisher, co-founder of Nordic Model Now!, joins Moran in denouncing the project. Fisher’s rhetoric suggests that the research promotes prostitution as a “normal job,” disregarding the clear objective to make sex work safer. Her claim that the research has a vested interest due to NUM’s involvement is a cynical dismissal of the rigorous, peer-reviewed process that underpins academic integrity. Fisher’s stance overlooks the crucial fact that sex workers face immediate dangers, which the SWERV project aims to mitigate through evidence-based interventions.

Despite feminist criticism, the SWERV initiative is a pioneering effort that addresses the harsh realities faced by sex workers. NUM’s tools, such as the NUMchecker, empower sex workers to report violence and stay safe, offering practical solutions to immediate threats. Critics like Moran and Fisher, entrenched in their ideological views, seem out of touch with the pressing need for measures that directly enhance sex workers' safety and mental health.

A spokesperson for the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine defended the project, emphasizing the collaborative nature of the research with independent academics to evaluate interventions designed to protect vulnerable groups. This commitment to academic freedom and inquiry is essential for advancing public health and safety, even if it challenges entrenched feminist dogma.

Brunel University London echoed this sentiment, supporting the project's focus on evaluating the effectiveness of tools that help sex workers. The university’s endorsement of academic freedom underscores the importance of addressing controversial issues through research, which feminist critics seem determined to undermine.

The SWERV study, launched in December 2023, represents a forward-thinking approach to tackling violence against sex workers. Its findings, to be published in a peer-reviewed journal, will provide valuable insights into creating a safer environment for sex workers, despite the protests from those clinging to outdated and unproductive views.

The Department of Health and Social Care was unable to comment due to the election period.

Sex work encompasses a wide range of professions, including erotic dancing, nude modeling, pornography, web cam modeling, sugar dating (an arrangement where money or material goods are exchanged for companionship and possibly intimacy), and full-service street or escort work.

There’s a complex legal landscape surrounding sex work, ranging from legality to criminalization. While criminalization is sometimes rooted in outdated moral or religious beliefs that condemn sex work as sinful, there is also a more nuanced argument around preventing sex trafficking. However, criminalizing sex work across the board as a means to combat trafficking can actually exacerbate the problem.

Sex workers themselves are invested in ending sex trafficking, just as much as the broader community is. However, tackling the issue without considering the perspectives and needs of those directly affected—such as drug users, queer and trans people, and low-income communities—often leads to more dangerous working conditions for sex workers.

In the world of full-service work, one of the most important safety measures for sex workers is the ability to conduct background checks on potential clients. This allows them to assess whether a client is safe, whether they appear on any bad date lists, and whether they have a history of harming women, queer individuals, or other sex workers. Without this ability to screen clients, workers could unknowingly place themselves in harm’s way.

Complete decriminalization of sex work is a crucial step toward ensuring sex workers can operate safely and autonomously. By removing legal barriers, sex workers can more effectively screen clients and minimize their exposure to trafficking.

While no system is perfect, and trafficking may not be entirely eliminated, the decriminalization approach is far more effective and safer for sex workers than current models.

Concerns with the “Nordic model”

As people recognize that criminalizing both sex workers and their clients fails to address sex trafficking and harms consensual sex workers, there is a shift toward the “Nordic model” or “anti-equity model” among some policy advocates. This approach criminalizes the purchase of sexual services, assuming it will reduce demand and therefore end sex trafficking.

However, this model often exacerbates risks for sex workers, driving away respectful clients and leaving them with those who may have little regard for their safety. Rather than reducing demand, this approach increases harm and can worsen conditions for sex workers.

Proponents of the Nordic model claim it helps full-service sex workers leave the industry, but their approach disregards the autonomy and humanity of sex workers. Moreover, money spent on enforcing the Nordic model could instead be directed towards education, job training, and support services for those who choose to leave the industry.

In countries that have adopted the Nordic model, such as Sweden, sex workers may face housing instability and homelessness as a result of policies that punish landlords and others who provide shelter to them.

Organizations like Freedom Network USA highlight that every arrest of a sex worker or their client diverts resources from aiding trafficking survivors and those seeking to leave the industry. Anti-sex work campaigns can drain funding that would be better used for support and empowerment.

Sex workers and former sex workers need support in challenging the Nordic model and advocating for complete decriminalization. The struggle for sex work justice is closely intertwined with broader fights against misogyny, queerphobia, and class exploitation. Solidarity with sex workers is essential for advancing justice for all.

Tips and Tricks on How to Find a Fuck Tonight

2024-04-29 elrond

There aren’t many feelings worse than being horny to a degree that it becomes frustrating. Yes, taking care of it alone should help, but it doesn’t. Every a man does it while watching someone else fucking, he becomes more frustrated and desperate. The body gets its quick fix of satisfaction, but that’s not it. It’s not the real thing.

And it’s so terrible to wake up in the morning so horny that you can’t think about anything but sex. In such cases, those who aren’t in relationships, are left to deal with the flood of bars and low-level dating platforms full of marriage beggars. For guys seeking hookups, they aren’t just useless, they are dangerous. They keep guys hooked and waste their time online instead of jumping on a video call and then jumping on a bed in the closest hotel room.

To help men who want to fuck a hot local girl tonight, we’ll list the most important steps. Those who make them after reading this may have to buy a fresh box of condoms within a couple of hours…

Show (Sex-Related) Personality in Your Hookup Profile

On general sites, it’s expected from people to be boring and have 0 personality. Everyone there wants to blend in so they avoid sharing anything that would make them unique. And because of the massive communities on such sites and the months members waste using them, some guys manage to get a date or two anyway.

Yet, a guy with blue balls doesn’t have that much time.

That’s why there’s an entire subcategory of online dating focused on connecting horny local singles seeking sex. And looking at the hot profile photos on the leading fuck tonight platform, it’s clear that vanilla profiles don’t get any attention there. Those who say that they like movies and hiking are invisible there. But those who list their favorite sex positions in descriptions and upload hot photos get on more video calls than they can count. And since every member knows that they are on a site strictly for sex, there’s no wasting time and girls don’t play games.

The 2 Fastest Ways to Get Matches on Fuck Sites

This part is important because many men get mesmerized by all the tits and asses on good fuck sites, so instead of finding the one to bang, they get drawn into hours of futile browsing while their buddy keeps twitching in their pants…

Instead of wasting time browsing, men should do one of these things…

● Use manual search filters
● Use Hot or Not Game for 45 minutes and then browse for 15 min

Manual search filters will forever be the best way to find matches. They let members pinpoint perfect matches based on their location, body type, height, weight, hair color, interests, etc. That’s also the best way to find horny women living close to you (if the geolocation feature on the site you choose is accurate). Hot or Not games are also efficient, but not for a reason most people think. Yes, it’s possible to find partners while swiping, yet the real reason why matchmaking games are useful is the fact that they feed algorithms with data. And the more someone uses it, the better suggestions they get.

Make Moves Quickly

Taking things slow is the fastest way to reach the friend zone. Women love guys who aren’t afraid to ask for what they want, especially on fuck sites. Asking about their favorite movies,
colors, or anything similar makes men look inexperienced and timid. 

Communication style is where most guys fail. They think it’s about this or that, but it isn’t. It’s almost always about communication. If a woman replies to the first message, there’s interest from her side. Keep that in mind forever and it will help you be more confident while chatting to girls. 

And if you meet on a fuck site or X (ex. Twitter) adult content section, be direct. If you’d like to have sex with them, tell them so (but probably word it a bit better). Men who start doing that usually take months to get used to having the ability to meet a stranger and bang her an hour later.

Still, Safety First

It’s not just possible to meet and fuck on the same day, it’s easy. Most locations are covered by at least one trustworthy fuck site, so there’s a place for everyone to go and meet horny locals. That means that people who like sex can have a lot more of it nowadays, so we have to emphasize the importance of safety.

We aren’t talking just about condoms. We’re talking about safety in general. They are rare, but scammers and catfishers are real. That’s why the first date should always be in public (meet in a bar, fuck in a motel). And before agreeing to meet anyone in real life, insist on having a video call, every good fuck site has that feature.

Barclays Bank's decision to freeze Becky Webster's account last year left her without access to her son's state benefit payments for over a week. This marked the 15th time Webster, a former NHS worker who now works full-time as an escort, had been denied a bank account or had one closed.

In response, Webster started a petition urging MPs to ensure that sex workers can access banking services, which garnered over 11,000 signatures. "I can't continue an application for a bank account when I state my occupation as sex work," Webster noted. "You want me to pay taxes but take away my banking access?"

Webster's campaign comes amid growing concern that banks are unfairly denying financial services to certain groups. Though the issue has drawn attention due to politician Nigel Farage's account being closed by private bank Coutts, it also affects countless individuals and businesses.

This year, a parliamentary committee found that more than 140,000 businesses had their accounts closed by major banks. The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is reviewing these account closures.

While soliciting sex work and brothel-keeping are illegal in England and Wales, selling and purchasing sexual services between consenting adults is legal. Estimates suggest around 72,800 people in the UK earn money through sex work, with the majority being women.

Research by the Sex Workers Union and advocacy group Decrim Now found that over 80% of SWU members had faced financial discrimination. As cash use declines, these workers increasingly rely on online payments.

National Ugly Mugs (NUM) pointed out the lack of understanding among banks about how sex industries operate in the UK, leading to widespread banking discrimination against sex workers.

Sex workers in the UK must pay income tax on earnings, yet they often face obstacles in accessing financial services. Webster, for instance, is registered as a sole trader and pays taxes, yet has been hindered in opening bank accounts.

Banks claim they must monitor and prevent financial crime, including sex trafficking. UK Finance, a trade body, said decisions to freeze or close accounts are often based on risk management and regulatory obligations. However, activists argue that denying sex workers access to banking services puts them at higher risk of exploitation and theft.

Jessica Van Meir, co-founder of MintStars and a Harvard researcher, said losing bank accounts is life-threatening for sex workers. This can push them towards online platforms that take a cut of their earnings or force them to rely on others who may exploit them.

People in adjacent legal fields also face financial discrimination. Decrim Now reported that sex educators, therapists, and artists are caught in the "banking's war on sex" due to banks' automated analysis and opaque risk assessments.

Van Meir herself struggled to open a business bank account for her start-up, a VC-backed online adult content platform, and had to rely on a more lightly regulated e-money institution.

In response to Webster's petition, the Treasury recently announced measures to protect bank customers, including increasing the notice period for account closures and requiring lenders to provide more detailed explanations.

The FCA has met with various consumer groups, including sex industry representatives, as part of its probe into account closures. However, the regulator declined to comment.

Audrey Caradonna of Decrim Now emphasized the need for financial authorities to stop equating sex work with criminality, arguing that current laws and stigma exacerbate risks for sex workers and financial institutions alike.

Barclays stated that it could not comment on specific account details without customer consent.

In the serene atmosphere of the Mustang Ranch, the oldest legal brothel in Nevada, a unique sense of safety and comfort envelops both workers and clients alike. Here, amidst the backdrop of saloon-style decor reminiscent of the American West, a dedicated team ensures that every aspect of the experience is meticulously cared for. From the vigilant security guards at the gates to the fully-catered amenities within, it's an environment that resembles more of a luxury retreat than a traditional brothel.

When Stacey Dooley embarks on her documentary journey to the Mustang Ranch for her series "Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over USA," she's greeted by a scene that defies conventional expectations. The presence of a swimming pool and the well-maintained rooms evoke comparisons to an all-inclusive resort. Yet, beyond the surface, it's evident that the Mustang Ranch represents far more than a mere getaway destination. Situated in the unique legal landscape of Nevada, it stands as a beacon of safety and stability for its residents, a contrast to the challenges faced by many sex workers in regions where their profession remains criminalized.

The commitment of individuals like Jennifer Barnes and Tara Adkins, former sex workers turned owners of the Mustang Ranch, underscores a dedication to providing a secure environment for all involved. With a team of 49 staff members, including security personnel and medical professionals, they ensure the well-being of the 28 women under their care. Such initiatives extend beyond physical safety, with comprehensive sexual health measures and mandatory training sessions aimed at empowering workers with essential knowledge and skills.

Through the lens of Dooley's documentary, the narrative of legal brothels emerges as one of empowerment and progress. While acknowledging the inherent challenges of the profession, it celebrates the tangible benefits afforded by legalization, from enhanced safety protocols to improved working conditions. The testimony of a new resident, reflecting on the dangers of independent work, serves as a poignant reminder of the transformative impact of legal frameworks in safeguarding individuals from harm.

However, the documentary also sheds light on the stark disparities faced by sex workers in regions where their profession remains criminalized, such as the United Kingdom and parts of the United States. Restrictive legislation not only perpetuates stigma but also exacerbates risks, pushing individuals into precarious situations with limited recourse for protection or support.

Amidst these challenges, the documentary offers a glimpse of hope, highlighting the pioneering efforts of countries like Belgium in decriminalizing sex work. While progress may be gradual, the example set by Nevada's legal brothels serves as a testament to the potential for positive change. As awareness grows and advocacy efforts continue, there remains optimism that more regions will embrace inclusive and progressive policies, ultimately prioritizing the well-being and rights of sex workers worldwide.

The article delves into the enduringly stagnant legal landscape surrounding sex work in Britain, which has remained largely unchanged since the Victorian era. Despite societal evolution, the control mechanisms over those in the industry persist, reminiscent of historical repression. While the act of exchanging money for sexual services remains legal, all associated practices are criminalized, effectively isolating sex workers and pushing them into vulnerable positions without protection or support networks. The punitive fines and prison sentences associated with prostitution convictions perpetuate cycles of debt, hindering individuals from leaving the profession.

Calls for legalization, often inspired by models in countries like the Netherlands, Nevada, and Germany, are criticized for perpetuating exploitative systems rather than offering genuine protection to sex workers. The English Collective of Prostitutes (ECP) opposes legalization, advocating instead for decriminalization akin to New Zealand's model. Decriminalization removes state regulation, granting sex workers greater independence and freedom to work safely without fear of legal repercussions. New Zealand's approach, which removed legal restrictions on sex work while prioritizing worker rights and safety, has been hailed as successful by global sex worker organizations.

The article emphasizes the importance of listening to the voices of sex workers themselves rather than relying on uninformed policymakers. It argues that prostitution often serves as a means to escape poverty, and empowering sex workers with agency over their work and livelihoods is essential for their well-being. By allowing sex workers to operate safely and without legal restrictions, they can eventually transition out of the industry and pursue other opportunities. Thus, the article concludes that legalization is not the solution for the sex worker population in the United Kingdom or elsewhere; instead, granting them autonomy and control over their work is paramount.

No need to hire overpriced human talent when AI is superior anyway. The bots are getting scary good. The money in "sexwork" porn and findom and even Hollywood is about to dry up, as customers now have a superior, cheaper alternative.

Rather a misogynistic rant from this U tuber.

New YouGov polling reveals a disparity in attitudes toward sex work between genders, with more women advocating for its stigmatization compared to men. The study, shared exclusively with The Independent, indicates that while approximately one in five individuals believe sex work should be shamed, a notable discrepancy exists between genders. Specifically, 27 percent of women surveyed express support for stigmatizing sex work, whereas only 17 percent of men share this view.

Moreover, findings suggest a prevailing reluctance among Britons to befriend individuals involved in pornography or sex work. A majority, comprising 52 percent, admit they would not befriend a current porn star, while 46 percent express a similar sentiment toward sex workers or escorts.

Despite these attitudes, a significant portion of the population, accounting for 52 percent, believes it should be legal to engage in consensual paid sex. However, 29 percent disagree with this perspective.

Niki Adams from the English Collective of Prostitutes underscores the link between anti-sex work sentiments and the criminalization of the profession, emphasizing the misconceptions surrounding sex workers. Adams highlights the diverse backgrounds of sex workers, many of whom are mothers supporting families in challenging economic circumstances.

She contends that societal hostility toward sex workers, particularly among women, stems from societal pressures to distance oneself from the profession. Adams emphasizes the urgent need for decriminalization to address violence against sex workers, enhance health outcomes, and promote visibility.

Despite the legal framework in England, Scotland, and Wales allowing for consensual sex transactions, various activities associated with sex work remain illegal. Notably, the study reveals a disparity in gender attitudes toward the legality of paying for sex, with 64 percent of men supporting its legalization compared to 41 percent of women.

Chiara Capraro of Amnesty International UK condemns the stigma against sex workers, attributing it to criminalization and gender stereotypes. She stresses that such stigmatization undermines sex workers' access to essential services and perpetuates violence against them. Capraro also highlights the struggles faced by many sex workers, particularly mothers, amid rising living costs.

Over the past few years, the digital landscape has witnessed a crackdown on sexual content across various platforms owned by Meta, including Instagram. This crackdown has affected individuals like Alice, a 34-year-old sex worker who relies on WhatsApp for communication during work hours. However, two months ago, Alice encountered a distressing situation when she discovered that her WhatsApp account, which she had used for six years, had vanished without warning. This loss not only disrupted her ability to communicate with clients but also jeopardized her safety, as WhatsApp had served as a vital tool in navigating potentially risky situations.

The trend of sudden bans on WhatsApp accounts has alarmed many sex workers, including Reed Thomas-Litman, a 33-year-old individual who found herself banned from the platform despite not violating any of its policies. Reed, who had experienced multiple bans on Instagram, was particularly devastated by the loss of her WhatsApp account, which severed her connections with fellow sex workers and support groups.

The situation underscores the precarious position of sex workers in online spaces, where platforms like WhatsApp implement policies without adequate transparency or recourse for affected individuals. This lack of accountability is especially concerning given the essential role that WhatsApp plays in facilitating communication and support networks among sex workers.

Moreover, the encryption features of WhatsApp, which are marketed as ensuring privacy and security, have left many sex workers puzzled by the platform's ability to detect and enforce bans based on content. While WhatsApp claims that its end-to-end encryption protects user messages from prying eyes, it has been revealed that certain metadata, such as group chat titles and display names, are not encrypted. This revelation raises questions about the extent of privacy afforded by WhatsApp and the implications for users, particularly those engaged in sensitive or stigmatized activities like sex work.

The ramifications of WhatsApp bans extend beyond mere inconvenience; they pose significant risks to the safety and well-being of sex workers. For individuals like Danielle, whose WhatsApp account was abruptly deleted, the loss of essential communication channels with clients not only jeopardizes their income but also compromises their ability to vet potential clients and maintain personal safety. Furthermore, the criminalization of sex work exacerbates the vulnerability of sex workers, as they face legal risks simply for communicating with peers and seeking support networks.

The actions of Meta, the parent company of WhatsApp, underscore broader societal attitudes towards sex work, which are often steeped in stigma and moral judgment. As anti-sex sentiment pervades legislative efforts like the UK's Online Safety Bill and the US FOSTA-SESTA bills, sex workers find themselves increasingly marginalized and subjected to punitive measures in both digital and physical spaces. Reed's experience reflects this societal bias, as she encounters condemnation and victim-blaming even when seeking solidarity and support online.

In conclusion, the arbitrary bans imposed by WhatsApp on sex workers highlight the urgent need for greater accountability and transparency in platform governance. The erosion of digital spaces for sex workers not only undermines their livelihoods but also endangers their safety and well-being. As advocates like Laura Watson of the English Collective of Prostitutes emphasize, access to online support networks is essential for ensuring the rights and dignity of sex workers in an increasingly hostile digital landscape. It is imperative that platforms like WhatsApp recognize their responsibility to uphold the rights of all users, regardless of their occupation or social status.

The Council of Europe (COE), a prominent organization dedicated to human rights, democracy, and the rule of law on the continent since its establishment in 1949, has consistently advocated for the protection of marginalized groups. Among these, sex workers often face stigma and violence, exacerbated by laws criminalizing the purchase of sex, as highlighted by COE's Commissioner for Human Rights, Dunja Mijatović.

In her recent commentary, Mijatović underscores how the criminalization of purchasing sex, despite the legality of selling sex in some regions like the island of Ireland, contributes to the marginalization of sex workers and heightens their vulnerability to violence. She emphasizes that such legislation effectively criminalizes the working environment of sex workers, encompassing not only clients but also third parties involved in various aspects of the industry, such as brothel-keepers and advertisers.

Contrary to arguments advocating for the criminalization of third parties to reduce demand and combat human trafficking, Mijatović points out that evidence suggests otherwise. Reports indicate that in certain states, commercial sexual services have increased following such criminalization, while anti-trafficking organizations highlight its ineffectiveness in preventing and combating human trafficking. Moreover, it may hinder the identification and protection of trafficking victims among sex workers.

Mijatović advocates for a human rights-based approach to sex work, emphasizing that consensual adult activities should not be criminalized. She asserts that criminalizing clients or third parties diminishes sex workers' access to essential services and rights, pushing them into clandestine and isolated work environments out of fear of legal repercussions. In contrast, decriminalization has shown positive impacts on sex workers' safety, access to social services, and health outcomes, as exemplified by Belgium's recent legislation.

However, Mijatović clarifies that decriminalization does not equate to condoning exploitation, human trafficking, or violence against sex workers. She stresses the necessity of maintaining and reinforcing laws addressing these issues while ensuring sex workers' protection from harm and exploitation.

Additionally, Mijatović raises concerns about the lack of meaningful consultation with sex workers in policymaking processes affecting their lives and work. She asserts that their voices and perspectives are indispensable for the development and implementation of effective and empowering human rights-based policies.

In conclusion, Mijatović calls for greater recognition of sex workers' rights and voices, advocating for policies that prioritize their safety, well-being, and agency. By adopting a human rights-based approach and involving sex workers in decision-making processes, societies can better address the challenges faced by this marginalized community while upholding fundamental principles of justice and dignity for all.

The fear surrounding the Preventing Rampant Online Technological Exploitation and Criminal Trafficking (PROTECT) Act centers on its potential implications for the regulation of sex work. Concerns have been raised that the broad language within the bill, particularly its definition of "coerced consent," could effectively criminalize all forms of sex work and invalidate consent within this context. While the bill primarily targets tech platforms and unauthorized online pornographic content, its language has sparked debates about its broader implications for sex workers, internet freedom, and free speech.

The PROTECT Act, sponsored by Senator Mike Lee of Utah, aims to combat online sexual exploitation by imposing stringent regulations on tech platforms. However, critics argue that its provisions could inadvertently lead to the prohibition of all existing online pornography. Under the Act, platforms failing to remove unauthorized pornographic content risk substantial fines and legal action. Compliance would necessitate obtaining explicit consent from individuals depicted in intimate or sexually explicit content, a process involving the submission of detailed forms approved by the U.S. Attorney General.

Moreover, the Act's stringent requirements could extend beyond pornography, impacting various forms of online expression. By targeting any content with "racy undertones," platforms may opt for overzealous content moderation, stifling not only sex workers' expression but also artistic and activist endeavors containing erotic imagery. The burdensome compliance procedures could deter users from sharing any content deemed remotely provocative, thus impeding free expression online.

Privacy concerns also arise from the Act's mandate for individuals to disclose their real identities when posting intimate content online. This requirement poses significant risks for sex workers and others engaging in lawful erotic expression, exposing them to potential harassment, stalking, and governmental intrusion into their personal lives. Furthermore, the Act's expansive definition of pornography raises alarming possibilities, potentially encompassing innocuous imagery and subjecting individuals to onerous consent requirements for mundane content.

Examining the Act's text reveals the extent of its regulatory reach. It imposes strict obligations on platforms to verify the age, identity, and explicit consent of individuals depicted in pornographic content. Failure to comply could result in severe penalties, including criminal charges and substantial fines. Despite purportedly preserving Section 230 of the Communications Act, which shields platforms from certain liabilities, the Act effectively holds them accountable for user-generated content through convoluted regulatory mechanisms.

Practical challenges abound under the PROTECT Act, as companies confront the monumental task of enforcing its provisions. The Act mandates exhaustive paperwork and compliance measures, creating a bureaucratic quagmire for tech platforms and content creators alike. Its vague definition of "coerced consent" raises further uncertainties, potentially invalidating consent based on subjective interpretations of individuals' circumstances.

While proponents argue that the Act aims to combat online exploitation, critics caution against its unintended consequences for protected speech and consensual activities. By imposing excessive regulatory burdens and vague consent standards, the Act risks stifling legitimate forms of expression and infringing upon individuals' privacy rights. Ultimately, the debate surrounding the PROTECT Act underscores the delicate balance between combating online exploitation and safeguarding fundamental freedoms in the digital age.

Stripe's abrupt decision to sever ties with WishTender, an online platform supporting sex workers and digital creators, casts a glaring light on the relentless harm inflicted upon these communities. This move is just another blow in a series of restrictions and closures that have increasingly crippled online sex work.

In a tweet yesterday, WishTender revealed that Stripe had terminated their partnership citing an "unexpected policy change," forcing users to swiftly withdraw their balances. The impact of this decision reverberates far beyond mere inconvenience; it disrupts the livelihoods of individuals reliant on WishTender for income.

Despite the setback, WishTender remains resolute, scrambling to secure a new financial partner to mitigate the fallout. However, the shadow of uncertainty looms large as Stripe remains tight-lipped about the specifics of the policy change, leaving users and advocates in the dark.

The solidarity between WishTender and sex workers is palpable, with the platform earning praise for its unwavering support. Yet, this loyalty seems to have invited retribution from financial institutions like Stripe, perpetuating a cycle of discrimination and marginalization.

This incident underscores the systemic hostility faced by sex workers in accessing banking and financial services. The actions of Stripe, Venmo, and Paypal highlight a chilling reality: there is no sanctuary for sex workers within the realm of financial transactions.

WishTender's scramble to find an alternative underscores the urgency of the situation. Founder Dashielle Bark-Huss's acknowledgment of the financial sacrifice underscores the platform's commitment to its users' well-being. However, the specter of instability looms large, reminding sex workers of the precariousness of their economic existence.

Former chief prosecutor and senior politicians are cautioning that new laws aimed at enhancing internet safety could inadvertently endanger the lives of sex workers by pushing them into street-based prostitution, raising alarms about potential unintended consequences of the legislation.

The Online Safety Bill, enacted in October, has sparked concerns among advocates who fear it could prompt the removal of online adverts posted by sex workers, thereby compelling them to seek riskier alternatives. Under the law, advertising platforms are compelled to remove content deemed to promote prostitution for monetary gain, with penalties for non-compliance looming over platform operators.

Audrey*, a 29-year-old sex worker, revealed that apprehensions surrounding the bill, combined with the economic strain of rising living costs, have compelled her to work in a brothel where she faces heightened risks due to the absence of online client screening and the presence of a controlling pimp.

Nazir Afzal, the former chief crown prosecutor for North West England, emphasized the imperative of safeguarding sex workers, underscoring that policies should prioritize protection rather than moral judgment. He cautioned that measures pushing sex workers into more perilous circumstances should be avoided, noting that restricting online contact could drive them into clandestine and vulnerable situations ripe for exploitation and abuse.

While the Online Safety Bill has been enacted, its practical implementation remains under scrutiny, with UK communications regulator Ofcom currently soliciting feedback on initial codes of practice for online platforms and engaging with representatives from the Sex Workers’ Union to navigate the law's rollout.

Audrey highlighted the heightened risks faced by street-based sex workers, citing increased vulnerability to harassment or violence from clients or law enforcement. She lamented the coercive impact of the legislation, which has compelled many of her colleagues to seek refuge in brothels out of fear of online advertising platforms being shut down.

Niki Adams, spokesperson for the English Collective of Prostitutes, echoed concerns about the bill's potential repercussions, citing the vital role of online advertising in enabling sex workers to screen clients and mitigate risks. She cautioned against the legislation's vague language and its chilling effect on sex workers' ability to share safety information, stressing the need for clear definitions and safeguards.

Labour MP Nadia Whittome emphasized the importance of reviewing the Online Safety Act's impact on sex workers and implementing necessary changes to protect them from harm, echoing calls for a comprehensive assessment of the legislation's consequences.

Despite government assurances that the law aims to combat exploitation while preserving lawful activities, apprehensions persist among sex workers, who fear the looming threat posed by the legislation.

Ofcom assured that they are mindful of the need to ensure sex workers can operate safely online and are actively considering these concerns in their guidance on implementing the new laws.

In a groundbreaking revelation, the renowned erotic portal, Erobella.com, has unveiled the results of an extensive client survey titled "Why Men Pay for Sex," shedding light on the motivations and demographics of individuals seeking sexual services. The survey, featuring insights from 1,226 male participants, challenges prevailing stereotypes about men who engage in such transactions.

Contrary to common assumptions, the study exposes that every third client pays for sex at least once a month. Notably, men in committed relationships surpass their single counterparts in the frequency of seeking sexual services. A staggering 52% of attached men, particularly those aged between 36 and 45, display a higher propensity for engaging in such transactions compared to the 48% of single men. This implies that the pursuit of sexual services extends beyond immediate gratification, encompassing unmet needs within committed relationships.

The survey identifies three primary motives driving men to pay for sexual services: the immediate satisfaction of sexual needs, the exploration of erotic fantasies driven by curiosity, and a significant emphasis on emotional aspects, reflecting a desire for sensual and emotional experiences.

Interestingly, the research reveals that clients value a hygienic environment (54%) and seek encounters where sex workers enjoy the experience (48%). Surprisingly, only 25% of men expect to achieve orgasm during these sessions, challenging the prevailing notion that clients of sex workers are solely self-serving and disrespectful toward women.

Individual statements from participants in the survey further diversify the spectrum of motives, ranging from the exploration of fetishes to the pursuit of physical intimacy and the fulfillment of unmet needs within their own relationships.

Ola Miedzynska, co-founder of Erobella, underscores the significance of the study's findings: "The results challenge the often negative perception of clients as solely selfish and disrespectful individuals. Instead, they showcase a diversity of motives and needs that extend far beyond purely sexual aspects.

Glendall C. Jackson III's gripping mystery, "Naked Came the Detective," won the Best Indie Book Award for novellas, its fourth honor since mid-2023. The novel follows a high-end sex worker investigating a client's death.

It started with wins at the Paris Book Festival and Firebird Book Awards. It was a top noir mystery at BookFest Awards, a PenCraft Book Awards runner-up, and a finalist in other contests. Shelf UnBound listed it among the top 100 Indie books in 2023.

Jackson, known for non-fiction, debuted in fiction with this book after previous non-fiction successes.

Critics praised the compelling plot, humor, style, and insight into high-end sex work. BestThrillers.com called it "a stunning debut," and the Independent Review of Books said it was "thrilling, well-paced, and surprisingly dark."

Publishers Weekly BookLife praised Jackson's research and the protagonist's wit and agility.

Veronica Monet, a former courtesan and author, commended the protagonist's authenticity.

The book is available in various formats on major platforms.

"Oi, there's been a fair bit of flak aimed at OnlyFans models Bonnie Blue, 24, and Leilani May, 25, for getting high school grads involved in their adult content creation.

These Aussie OnlyFans celebs copped criticism for inviting young fellas to join in making some explicit stuff. They're keen on getting the Schoolies – you know, the recent high school graduates here in Oz – in on their action. But heaps of folks reckon it's a dodgy move.

For those not in the loop, Schoolies Week is a big deal for Aussie grads, a time for them to kick back and party hard at some top-notch holiday spots across the country. Surfers Paradise up in Queensland's Gold Coast is a ripper spot for it, with its pumping nightlife and stunning beaches.

Word got out that these two models asked recent grads to rock up at Surfers Paradise for their adult content shoot.

Brit lass Bonnie Blue fired back at the reports, saying the school leavers actually hit them up first. She told the Gold Coast Bulletin: “We started getting messages like, ‘I'll be there for Schoolies, let's shoot content,' and we chuckled – we usually worked with established creators, but then we thought, ‘Why not?’”

She made it clear that she and May made sure anyone working with them was legally adults: "They're not underage; we check IDs, follow a process – they're consenting and sign consent forms," she added.

Meanwhile, Aussie May said, “It’s all up to them and what they're comfy with. They take part, we practise safe sex, and we, as sex workers, get checked every couple of weeks.”

But plenty of others are worried about the long-term impact of being involved in such content.

Matt Lloyd, CEO of schoolies.com, had this to say to the Gold Coast Bulletin: "Our advice to all Schoolies is, you deserve to have a good time with your mates, but think twice before making a decision that might affect your family, your rep, and your future prospects.”

However, Blue and May reckon those who join in don't need to show their faces.

The models put out a joint statement to our mates at LADbible about their take on the situation: "We're stoked to highlight making authentic and relatable content with real people. We're keen to keep this adult content vibe going and take it to spring break in the US and freshers week in the UK."

Facial identification technology has emerged as a tool to detain and prohibit sex workers from entering certain countries, signaling the advent of an increasingly invasive surveillance state propelled by artificial intelligence.

This technology has been wielded by border control authorities to target individuals within the sex work industry, using facial recognition algorithms to identify and track them across borders. Such measures have resulted in detentions, bans, and severe limitations on the mobility of sex workers, exemplifying the profound impact of AI-driven surveillance on personal freedoms.

The use of facial ID in this context highlights broader concerns regarding privacy invasion, civil liberties, and the disproportionate targeting of marginalized communities. It underscores the rapid evolution of surveillance techniques, facilitated by AI, which not only undermines individual rights but also perpetuates systemic discrimination against certain groups.

Moreover, the utilization of facial recognition to enforce travel bans reveals a concerning precedent for the expansion of state-controlled monitoring and control mechanisms. The far-reaching implications of this technology extend beyond the confines of border security, posing fundamental questions about the ethical boundaries of AI deployment and the erosion of personal autonomy in an increasingly monitored society.

As such, the intersection of facial ID technology and its implications for the restriction of movement for sex workers serves as a stark warning about the encroachment of pervasive surveillance facilitated by AI, highlighting the urgent need for comprehensive discussions on the ethical and societal impacts of such advancements.

 

Sydney, a Canadian sex worker, exercised caution by leaving her cellphones behind when crossing the U.S. border due to previous accounts of colleagues facing phone seizures by border patrol. Despite Canada's legalization of escorting under the Nordic Model, aimed at decriminalizing the sale of sex, practical implications included continued police surveillance and violence against sex workers. Opting for privacy, Sydney chose not to show her face in advertisements, impacting her client base.

In 2014, Sydney and her wife's routine trip to Massachusetts hit a snag when self-service kiosks, newly installed by Massport at Boston Logan Airport, flagged Sydney upon scanning her passport, signaling an impending issue. Despite leaving her phones behind, border officers detained her and requested access to her wife's phone. Separated and subjected to interrogation in a chilling room, Sydney found herself in a distressing situation.

This incident echoed a similar occurrence involving Sydney's friend Naomi in 2013 at Toronto Pearson Airport. Naomi, also in the sex work industry but operating with a face-out approach, received a 10-year travel ban after border agents found connections between her and fellow sex workers, including Sydney, through flight records and their joint advertisements.

Border agents connected the dots between Naomi and Sydney, despite Sydney concealing her face, leading to a five-year travel ban for Sydney. This ban deterred her from attempting any further international travel.

Sydney’s experience underscores the ongoing challenges faced by sex workers despite legislative changes. The border patrol's scrutiny and tactics to identify and restrict their movement serve as a stark reminder of the persistent surveillance and hurdles encountered by individuals in the sex work industry, impacting their freedom of travel and privacy.

The journey toward achieving sex worker rights has been marked by perseverance, with a rising chorus of voices advocating an end to stigma, abuse, and the criminalization of sex work. In a momentous move, the United Nations Working Group on discrimination against women and girls released a groundbreaking report in October, urging the global decriminalization of voluntary adult sex work.

This report meticulously scrutinizes the divisive debates surrounding sex work, which often overshadow the urgent need for evidence-based policies safeguarding the rights of affected women and girls. Extensive research conducted by Human Rights Watch, reputable academic studies, health journals, anti-trafficking organizations, and insights shared by sex workers themselves consistently highlight that criminalization exacerbates the vulnerability of sex workers to violence, including rape, assault, and even murder.

Recent investigations in 2021 underscored that criminalization not only jeopardizes the safety of sex workers but also undermines the efforts of advocates fighting for sex worker rights. These dedicated defenders often play a crucial role in life-saving anti-trafficking work by negotiating access to brothels, identifying sexually exploited children, empowering survivors with access to justice, offering harm reduction strategies, and enhancing healthcare pathways for individuals deprived of their freedom of movement.

This report marks the seventh occasion where the Working Group has addressed sex work. It has persistently championed the decriminalization of adult sex work in various reports focusing on gender discrimination in health, women deprived of liberty, women's rights in the world of work, poverty, as well as in interventions specifically advocating for criminalized sex workers in Nigeria and South Africa.

Multiple UN agencies, such as the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, the World Health Organization, the UN Population Fund, and the UN Development Program, stand in opposition to criminalization. Additionally, prominent civil society organizations like Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and the International Planned Parenthood Federation have presented evidence-based policies in support of decriminalizing adult sex work.

Local advocates for sex worker rights navigate a challenging and often hostile environment marked by defamation, smear campaigns, legal hurdles, and, at times, physical violence and retribution for their activism within their communities. The unequivocal support from one of the leading women's rights bodies within the UN is profoundly significant, signifying a genuine acknowledgment of the voices and experiences of sex workers.

The mounting evidence and the increasing network of institutions embracing a rights-based approach signify a clear path forward. Decriminalization emerges as the crucial step for those committed to upholding the rights and justice for all women, fostering an environment that champions dignity, safety, and empowerment.

As the whimsical season of 'No Nut November' comes back into play, the art of abstaining from self-love is once again thrust into the spotlight.

For the uninitiated, this challenge involves steering clear of any solo escapades for the entire month of November, with some enthusiasts claiming it's a boon for male well-being. The phenomenon has even made its mark on TikTok, where the hashtag #NNN (short for No Nut November) has garnered a staggering 15.5 billion views.

So, what exactly is the deal with No Nut November?

According to the solemn rules laid out on the Reddit thread r/nonutnovember, participants are expected to refrain from self-gratification in all its forms throughout the month. It's a challenge that's been likened to trends like 'No Shave November,' but instead of embracing facial hair, participants resist the temptation to make the bald man cry, as the Reddit community puts it.

But is 'nutting' excessively really a widespread issue?

Well, not really, says Gigi Engle, a sex and relationships psychotherapist and lead intimacy expert at the dating app 3Fun. She contends that the notion of being dependent on self-love is a myth, citing a lack of reputable scientific evidence supporting such claims. Even the DSM-5 doesn't recognize sex or porn addiction, and experts remain divided on whether one can be medically addicted to sex and masturbation.

So, why are men willingly subjecting themselves to this month-long challenge?

According to the No Nut November Reddit community, some are in it for the memes, while others seek genuine self-improvement. It's not a political movement, nor is it anti-porn or anti-women, clarifies u/yeeval, a moderator on the subreddit. He believes that while many start for the fun of the challenge, some come to realize the extent of their dependency on porn and masturbation as the days roll on.

One curious origin story attributes the challenge to a now retracted 2003 study suggesting that abstaining from self-love could spike testosterone. However, subsequent research failed to replicate these findings, highlighting issues like small sample sizes and mixed results.

But is a month-long abstinence a wise idea?

Engle warns against the practice of 'semen retention,' linking it to consistently higher levels of depression and anxiety. Reed Amber, a sex educator and podcast host, criticizes the notion that No Nut November implies one is masturbating or using porn too much without consulting professionals.

Contrary to the challenge's implied benefits, regular masturbation has its own set of health perks for men. Sex and Relationship Therapist Bima Loxley notes that ejaculating at least once a week can contribute to prostate health, potentially decreasing the risk of prostate cancer.

So, should you take the No Nut November plunge?

While nobody should feel pressured into self-love if they're not inclined, it's worth noting that masturbation has proven medical benefits for both the body and mind. On the flip side, abstaining under the guise of boosting testosterone has been debunked and could be detrimental to mental and physical health. As Bima Loxley succinctly puts it, "Porn and masturbation aren't the problem — it's our society and how we use it."

In the grand scheme of things, shame and stigmatizing masturbation aren't healthy. Reflecting on our reasons for self-love and being aware of our consumption of adult content isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially if there are concerns about compulsive behavior.

So, if you fancy a bit of solo fun in November, go for it. And if you find yourself needing to address some compulsive sexual behaviors, well, the NHS has resources and support available. Happy (or abstinent) November!

As a feminist, I had always rejected porn and other forms of popular culture that suggested that my value depended on how much I appealed to men. This was my stance until I reached my 40s, when I embarked on a research project on the sex industry. That was when my previous assumptions about resisting objectification were challenged and transformed.

One might assume that the sex industry is the epitome of objectification for women. And while that may hold true in many aspects - and was indeed my initial expectation - it was not what I and my co-author, Trish Ruebottom, discovered.

Our study involved interviewing women and transgender entrepreneurs who were working in various sectors within the industry, and resulted in 86 interviews over a span of seven years. The work led to multiple journal publications that are the indicators of academic success. However, the reality I learned about objectification (which I did not get to discuss in those articles) was that resisting it is not simply a matter of rejecting its manifestations and sensationalism in the media, pop culture and sex.

While I opposed the idea of the cultural objectification of women, I realized that my very conventional life as a university professor, with two children, a husband, and a dog was rife with it.

Philosopher Martha Nussbaum identifies several different forms of objectification that can be grouped into three categories: being used for the purposes of others, being denied one’s own subjectivity, and being treated and perceived as passive and agreeable. When our research prompted me to examine my own life closely, it became evident that I was an object and, even in the times that I was not necessarily being objectified, I still was not a subject.

OnlyFans is a platform that allows people to post and sell their own content, mostly of an adult nature. The site was founded in 2016 by the Stokely family from Essex, but it is now owned by Leonid Radvinsky, a 41-year-old Ukrainian-American businessman. He is the sole shareholder of the company and made $338 million in dividends last year. That’s about $1.3m per working day, or $926,000 per day if you account for weekends.

The site has become very popular among content creators, especially sex workers, who can earn 80% of what they make from subscriptions, tips and extra content. OnlyFans keeps the remaining 20%. The site was praised for giving sex workers more control and autonomy over their work, but some have complained that celebrities have taken over the platform and pushed them down the rankings.

Kelly Blair, the CEO of OnlyFans, said that the company had a strong performance in 2021 and continued to grow its creator and fan communities and increase its global revenue. He said that the company was committed to providing an effective and safe environment for creators over the age of 18 across all genres to monetize their content and connect with their fans.

According to a regulatory filing from parent company Fenix International, OnlyFans saw $5.55 billion in total spending by users for the fiscal year ending 30 November, 2022. That was a 16% increase from the previous year, with the creators taking home nearly $4.5 billion of that amount. The number of users subscribing to the platform hit 239 million, an increase from the 188 million users in 2021.

OnlyFans has been a success story for many people who post their own content, especially those who make adult content. The platform has been friendly to porn and has attracted millions of users who are willing to pay for exclusive access to their favourite creators.

In a strategic move that echoes the evolving landscape of the adult entertainment industry, Alexzandra Kekesi, previously the Director of Marketing at Pornhub, has ascended to the position of Head of Community and Brand at the renowned adult content platform. This significant promotion marks a substantial shift in the company's direction and objectives.

Kekesi's expanded role will encompass not only overseeing the platform's creative endeavors and brand positioning, but also a pivotal commitment to combating discrimination against sex work. The announcement, delivered by the company on a Wednesday, shed light on the scope of Kekesi's responsibilities in propelling the company's vision forward.

At the forefront of this shift is Kekesi's staunch stance on sex positivity. As Asa Akira, a prominent performer within the platform, emphasized, Kekesi champions sex work with unwavering vigor. Akira expressed that Kekesi ardently advocates for all members of the community, particularly those who confront additional marginalization. Through her dedication, Kekesi ensures that their voices resonate not just audibly, but emphatically celebrated.

In June, the digital domain statistics revealed Pornhub's robust prominence, solidifying its position as the fourth most-frequented website in the United States. The platform garnered an astonishing 1.86 billion visits, according to data sourced from software firm SemRush. In this virtual hierarchy, only the titans Google, YouTube, and Facebook loomed larger.

However, the platform has not been exempt from controversy. A wave of backlash engulfed Pornhub, resulting in its prohibition in Utah, Virginia, and Mississippi. Adding to the narrative of turbulence, the platform's Instagram account faced permanent closure due to alleged violations of Meta's regulations, as reported by various press outlets.

Behind the scenes, a significant ownership transition has transpired. MindGeek, the company at the helm of Pornhub, hailing from the bustling city of Montreal, underwent a transformational acquisition. Ethical Capital Partners, a Canadian private equity entity, finalized the acquisition in March. This maneuver has indubitably introduced new dynamics to the platform's strategic trajectory.

In the ever-evolving adult entertainment landscape, Kekesi's ascension to spearhead community and branding initiatives marks a poignant chapter in Pornhub's evolution. The platform's enduring resonance in the digital realm is mirrored by its commitment to equitable representation, pushing against societal bias, and embracing the essence of sex positivity. As the industry undergoes transformation, all eyes remain riveted on the brand's trajectory under Kekesi's insightful stewardship.

The article "Why Men Pay Women for Sex: A Comprehensive Analysis of 54 Studies" delves into the evolving perspectives on sex work over the last two decades and provides insights into the motivations and justifications of men who engage in paying for sexual services. The authors of the article, two Israeli researchers, draw on 54 studies conducted across various countries to analyze the attitudes of men who visit sex workers. These studies encompass a range of methodologies, including interviews with men who pay for sex, focus groups, and online forum posts.

The authors note a shift in the discourse surrounding sex work, which has moved from labeling it as immoral to emphasizing the victimization of female sex workers through human trafficking. The call for the decriminalization of adult sex work by Amnesty International and anti-trafficking organizations highlights the changing dynamics of this debate.

The findings from the analyzed studies reveal a range of reasons and justifications provided by men for paying for sex. Many men consider sex a fundamental male need, and they see paying for sexual services as a normal and natural behavior. The studies indicate that men may turn to sex workers when they lack sexual partners or when their partners don't meet their sexual needs. Additionally, some men view paying for sex as a means to gain sexual experience or to cope with circumstances like failed marriages or disabilities that affect their attractiveness to potential partners.

While the majority of men expressed little moral conflict about paying for sex, some demonstrated ambivalence or shame. They believed that paying for sex compromised their masculinity, reflected weakness or sex addiction, lacked emotional intimacy, and contributed to exploitation of sex workers by pimps and traffickers.

The authors also discuss the prevalence of human trafficking in the context of sex work. They highlight the discrepancy between different estimates of trafficking, and suggest that while human trafficking is a grave issue, some anti-trafficking activists may exaggerate its extent.

Ultimately, the article calls for the decriminalization and legalization of adult sex work, emphasizing the empowerment of sex workers and the need to address gender inequality and discrimination. The article underscores the complexity of the issue, the diversity of men's motivations for paying for sex, and the importance of informed policy decisions that consider both the rights of sex workers and broader societal concerns.

Prostitution, often referred to as the “world’s oldest profession,” is a persistent phenomenon that has existed in various forms across different cultures, societies, and locations throughout history. However, the moral and legal status of prostitution varies widely among countries, and so does its prevalence. A relevant question that emerges is: which country has the highest rate of prostitution?

To address this question, one must take into account the multiple factors that influence the occurrence of prostitution. These may include socioeconomic conditions, legal frameworks, and cultural norms. Moreover, obtaining reliable data on this sensitive topic is challenging, as it often depends on estimates and research on the illicit trade. Nevertheless, based on the available information, it is possible to identify some countries with notably high rates of prostitution.

It should be noted that some countries are renowned for having large sex industries due to tourism, local demand, or economic necessity. Countries such as Thailand, Cambodia, and parts of Germany (where prostitution is legal and regulated) are frequently cited in debates about the sex industry. However, having a prominent sex industry does not necessarily imply that these countries have the “most” prostitution; it simply means that it is more visible and regulated.

Prostitution is a widespread phenomenon, with varying rates across different countries. This section provides an overview of the countries where prostitution is most common.

Germany has legalized prostitution, resulting in an increase in the number of sex workers and brothels. Thailand has a large sex tourism industry, attracting visitors from around the world. Brazil also has a high rate of sex tourism, especially during the Carnival season. China has technically outlawed prostitution, but it is still prevalent, particularly in urban areas.

Colombia has a sizable prostitution market, driven mainly by drug-related violence and poverty. India and the Philippines also face high rates of prostitution due to poverty and a lack of employment opportunities for women. Spain continues to struggle with the issue of prostitution, as it is neither fully legal nor criminalized.

Australia, Finland, Bolivia, and the Netherlands have some regulation of sex work, leading to a degree of tolerance toward the industry. France and Denmark have illegalized prostitution, but it still occurs in these countries, partly due to their appeal to tourists.

Mexico, the United States, Argentina, Canada, and Nevada (where it is legal) have considerable levels of prostitution, with authorities attempting to regulate or combat the industry. Japan, South Korea, and New Zealand have significant issues with prostitution despite efforts to curb the trade.

Some European countries, such as Lithuania, Austria, Latvia, Croatia, Czech Republic, Turkey, Belgium, Italy, and Slovenia have varying degrees of regulation or penalties for prostitution. Finally, even in countries like Zimbabwe, where prostitution is illegal, it persists as an underground business.

The factors that contribute to high rates of prostitution in these countries include poverty, unemployment, drug addiction, and global demand for sex services. These factors should be taken into account when discussing prostitution in a specific country.

A hidden camera was found by Cami Strella and Lev Lieben, an OnlyFans couple, in their vacation rental. They were horrified to learn that their intimate moments were being recorded without their permission. This incident raises questions about the privacy and safety of content creators.

Strella and Lieben make videos for their OnlyFans fans on a regular basis. But they never expected that someone would spy on them in their private space. This incident violated their personal boundaries and made them feel unsafe. It shows that content creation does not imply consent to be watched by anyone.

This incident underscores the need for privacy and consent for all people, regardless of what they do or how they live. Everyone has the right to feel secure and comfortable.

Sadly, this is not the first time that hidden cameras have been found in rental properties. It is important for people to be aware and cautious when staying in unfamiliar places. Looking for hidden cameras or other devices before checking in can help prevent privacy breaches.

It is also vital for rental property owners and managers to take responsibility for the safety and privacy of their guests. They should conduct regular checks and audits to ensure that no one is violating the privacy of their guests. This can help avoid incidents like this in the future.

Campaigners have warned that the freezing of bank accounts for prostitues leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and violence.

The warning comes after former UKIP leader Nigel Farage demanded compensation from private bank Coutts after it closed his account, partly due to his political views.

Two bank bosses, including NatWest Group's chief executive Dame Alison Rose, stepped down last week, with Ms Rose admitting she was the source of a BBC story stating Farage's bank account was shut on commercial grounds.

Audrey Caradonna, a spokesperson for the Sex Workers' Union, told The Independent: "For prostitutes, suddenly losing access to your bank account and your money isn't a freak occurrence but an all too common nightmare."

She said that the freezing of bank accounts leaves sex workers unable to withdraw money or make payments, which can make them increasingly vulnerable to exploitation and violence.

"A lack of funds means many are forced to take on riskier work, such as working in isolated locations or accepting cash payments," she said.

"This puts them at risk of being exploited by clients or even attacked."

Caradonna called on banks to stop freezing the bank accounts of sex workers and to ensure that they have access to the financial services they need.

The freezing of bank accounts is a serious issue that can have a devastating impact on sex workers.

It is important that banks take steps to ensure that this does not happen, and that they provide support to those who have been affected.

  • The freezing of bank accounts can have a significant impact on the mental and physical health of sexworkers.
  • It can also make it difficult for them to pay their rent, bills, and other expenses.
  • The freezing of bank accounts can also lead to sex workers being evicted from their homes or losing their jobs.
  • Campaigners are calling on banks to introduce clear and transparent policies on the freezing of bank accounts, and to provide more support to those who have been affected.

The Home Office minister has proposed outlawing the payment of money for sex as part of an effort to prevent women from being trafficked into prostitution.

 

Sarah Jane Dines told the Commons Home Affairs Select Committee on Wednesday that demand for the services of sex workers was "part of human nature" and had been "around for thousands of years". She suggested that despite the government's failure to follow other countries in adopting the "Nordic model" of making it a crime to pay for sex she was in favour of such action. "Sex work, the demand is there, it's unfortunately part of human nature, I would like for it to be outlawed," the minister told MPs. "What we are doing is using the legal system to make the UK the most unfairly country for this sort of practice that we can." Ms Dines added: "The sex industry, the sex trade, prostitution, the trafficking in general, the abuse of others for money or power has been around for thousands of years. Reducing that demand is difficult. There have been various models across the world in different countries, people have tried different things, we know for example in the sex trade the Nordic model, we know other countries have tried outlawing various practices. What is clear is that discouraging demand is very difficult."

On April 20, 2023, Twitter finally abolished legacy verified accounts. This meant that only users who had paid for Twitter Blue were now eligible to be verified. This change led to a number of different reactions from users.

Some users, such as Elon Musk's fanboys, were angry that they would now have to pay for verification. They argued that verification was a valuable service that should be free. Others, such as Twitter Blue subscribers, were happy to pay for the extra features that came with verification. They felt that the benefits of verification outweighed the cost. Still others, such as celebrities, were surprised to find that they had retained their verification even though they had not paid for Twitter Blue. They wondered why they had been given special treatment.

However, there was one group of users who were not discussed as much as the others. These were sex workers. Before the change, sex workers had not been able to get verified accounts. However, after the change, they were now a group of users who who could become verified. This meant that sex workers would now have to pay $8 a month to be verified.

This change was met with mixed reactions from sex workers. Some were happy that they could now be verified, even if it meant paying for it. Others were angry that they were being singled out and forced to pay for a service that was once free. Still others were worried that the cost of verification would make it more difficult for them to operate their businesses.

Ann Summers, Jacqueline Gold dies at 63

Jacqueline Gold, the founder of Ann Summers, a leading retailer of lingerie and sex toys, passed away last week at the age of 62 after battling breast cancer for seven years. Gold's passing is a great loss to the business world, especially for women across the UK, who have been empowered by her contribution to female sexual liberation.

In a statement released by Ann Summers on Friday, it was announced that Gold had passed away, leaving her husband, Dan, daughter, Scarlett, sister, Vanessa, and brother-in-law, Nick, by her side. Vanessa described her sister as an "absolute warrior" throughout her cancer journey.

Gold joined Ann Summers in the late 1970s and took over as CEO in 1987. She transformed the business into a multi-million-pound enterprise by making it more female-friendly and introducing the concept of hosting Tupperware-style parties to sell lingerie and sex toys to women in the privacy of their homes. Gold's "no men allowed" policy at these parties enabled women to discuss their desires and sexual freedom openly, which was a radical departure from the prevailing social norms of the time.

Gold was appointed Commander of the British Empire (CBE) in the 2016 New Year Honours for her outstanding contributions to women in business, social enterprise, and entrepreneurship. In addition to being a successful businesswoman, she was also a role model for many women across the UK.

Gold's father, David Gold, co-founded Ann Summers with his brother Ralph in 1972, and he played a pivotal role in transforming the business from a small collection of standard sex shops to a nationwide high street phenomenon. David passed away just two months before Jacqueline.

Although Ann Summers has closed several branches due to the decline of the British high street, it still operates 81 stores across the UK, Ireland, and the Channel Islands. Gold's legacy will continue to inspire and empower women for generations to come. Her sister, Vanessa, has succeeded her as CEO of the company.

Hugh Grant cracked jokes about his infamous 1995 sex scandal with the hosts of US talk show The View on Thursday (16 March).

Grant was nabbed by Los Angeles police for indulging in “raunchy conduct” in a public place with a sex worker named Divine Brown. He was in a long-term relationship with actor/model Liz Hurley at the time, who probably wasn’t too thrilled about it.

On The View, host Sunny Hostin asked the 62-year-old actor about his campaigns against the British tabloid press.

Everyone thinks, ‘Oh, well he’s just bitter because he got caught with his pants down in 1995,’” Grant said to hysterical laughter from the hosts and studio audience.

Hostin’s co-host Whoopi Goldberg interjected: “But you know what, really, who hasn’t? I mean, not me personally, but I’m sure someone has."

The actor then continued: “But actually it had nothing to do with that because that was never uncovered by tabloids. It was that the bloody police gave everyone the information. It was nothing to do with that. They were just jealous of my charming accent and floppy hair.

These big newspaper owners – largely non-tax-paying newspaper owners – are living above the law and invading the privacy of people whose kids are being killed in a road accident or whatever to get the sensational article,” he said.

No one dares to take them on in Britain because they’re so scared of them, especially the politicians. That’s why politicians, really in my country, are chosen by the press… That’s what my campaign is about. And also getting free dental care for everyone."

OnlyFans, a platform where creators sell content directly to viewers, has been hailed by Megan Barton-Hanson, a prominent sex worker advocate in the UK, as a tool that gives queer women in sex work “control” over their own boundaries and profits. However, this positive portrayal of OnlyFans may not capture the full complexity of sex work as a lived experience. Sex work is influenced by various personal and cultural factors that vary across time and space, and it cannot be easily reduced to binary oppositions such as empowering/oppressive, sex positive/sex negative, feminist/anti-feminist2. Therefore, a more nuanced and contextualized analysis of OnlyFans and its impact on queer women in sex work is needed.

According to Barton-Hanson, a former stripper and a prominent sex worker advocate in the UK, platforms such as OnlyFans represent a “positive direction” for queer women in sex work. She argues that these platforms enable sex workers to “cut out the middle-man” and have more control over their own boundaries and profits. She claims that this makes sex work “a much safer and lucrative workplace” for them.

However, this optimistic view of OnlyFans may not account for some of the challenges and risks that sex workers still face on and off the platform. For instance, there have been allegations of men using OnlyFans to exploit and coerce women into performing for content. Moreover, the platform faced backlash in 2021 for announcing a (later reversed) ban on sexually explicit content, which would have harmed the livelihoods of many adult creators.

Furthermore, these issues are embedded within a broader patriarchal context where sex workers are stigmatized, marginalized and vulnerable to violence. Dr Olivia Snow, a dominatrix and research fellow at UCLA, cautions against framing sex work within a simple empowerment narrative. She contends that “at the end of the day, it’s still labour to survive under capitalism” .

Snow, a bisexual dominatrix and research fellow at UCLA, challenges the notion that sex work is inherently empowering for sex workers on a systemic level. She asserts that sex work is “labour to survive under capitalism”  and that stigma is a major obstacle for sex workers’ well-being and dignity. She admits that she would not have any reservations about doing sex work herself “were it not for such widespread stigma that is just so dehumanising”.

However, she also acknowledges that sex work can have positive effects for consumers, especially those who identify as queer or kinky. She suggests that these consumers may find empowerment and representation in seeing “queer joy, queer sex, kinky sex” on platforms such as OnlyFans.

Queer sex content appears to be increasing in popularity and diversity. According to Pornhub’s Year in Review report, ‘Lesbian’ was the most-watched category of 2022, up from second most-watched in 2021. While most lesbian porn has historically been produced for a male audience, the rise of creator-led content on OnlyFans may be changing that. The report also found that lesbian porn was viewed more by women (69 per cent) than by men, indicating that a significant number of heterosexual women are also consuming it.

According to Snow, the sex industry is predominantly composed of queer women, and cis-heterosexual women are a minority in this field. However, Barton-Hanson, who identifies as bisexual, argues that most of these women are subjected to the objectification of male filmmakers, especially in mainstream pornography.

She claims that this type of pornography caters to the male gaze and neglects the women’s pleasure. She also suggests that this has negative implications for women who are exploring their sexuality and rely on pornography as a source of information about lesbian sex.

Therefore, she supports the idea that actors should upload their own videos with their real-life partners. She believes that this would provide a more authentic and diverse representation of queer women and their sexual experiences in pornography.

Universities need to wise up to when students are doing work that’s dodgy, unfair, or risky. That could be in pubs, shops, or other casual jobs – and it could be in sex work. The myth of student sex work is that it’s only done by 19-year-old students who want a sugar daddy to buy them fancy stuff – not a parent-student who’s taking a well-paid and flexible job in between juggling studying, housework, and looking after the kids. Not that I’m judging either way – I’ve seen both – but sex workers and their reasons for doing it are different (in fact, the English Collective of Prostitutes found in 2019 that most sex workers are mums).

Sex work is different, too. Sugarbabying (usually a sexual relationship with – often much older – person in exchange for money and/or gifts) and escorting (in-person paid sex) are common. The recent cost of living survey by Canterbury Christ Church SU found that of the (few) students who had done sex work, sending used clothes was the most common type of sex work done by their students, followed by intimate photos and OnlyFans. 58.3 per cent of the students who had done sex work in the past year said it was for money reasons – with a fair bit of these saying it was specifically to pay their way through uni. Whether we like it or not – students are getting paid for a kind of work to get through the cost of living crisis, And that’s work.

Do you remember what happened back in November 2021 at the University of Durham Students’ Union? They got a lot of flak for teaching their staff about student sex work. Some people even said they didn’t care about other kinds of work (that’s not true, by the way, they did).

They did the training because they wanted their staff to know the facts and the myths about sex work. That way, they could help student sex workers in different ways. Maybe they need some money, maybe they want to quit, or maybe they just want to feel supported. It’s important that student sex workers – and trust me, they are out there – feel that their institution is on their side.

Life is getting harder, right? More and more students have to work part-time, and some of them even do sex work. I’m worried about how many of them don’t know how to stay safe, because their universities don’t tell them anything. Maybe the universities are scared of what the media or the politicians will say if they do.

There was this student sex worker I met when I worked at a students’ union. She had a nasty client who knew about this thing called “morality clause” – it’s when the university can kick you out if you don’t behave the way they want, and they have used it against student sex workers. He was blackmailing her with that. She didn’t know that her university didn’t have one until three months later. If her university had shown her some support (I mean, support for sex workers, not for sex work), this wouldn’t have happened.

Some people always say bad things about sex work. They say it’s different from other work because it’s humiliating – but that’s just their opinion, and it says more about them than about sex work. Besides, from the students we talked to, it seems that humiliation is not something that only happens in sex work.

If we don’t tell students how to be safe, they will look for it somewhere else – and they might get the wrong information. I googled “escort” and checked out The Student Room. I saw some scary, wrong, and risky answers from students to students who wanted to be escorts. And nobody said anything about the laws or the problems that come with the work that students really need to know – like if two or more sex workers share a house or live together, that’s an illegal brothel and they can go to jail for seven years.

Dear Mr Andrews by Lotte Latham is published by Guts Publishing and is out no

Escorting is a safer and simpler option, Latham has decided. “I just don’t like the idea of not being able to operate as a business,” she says. “Back in ancient Greece, prostitutes had guilds. They were business women in their own right. With escorting, I can check other people’s profiles and see what people are charging. There’s a two-way reviewing system, so I can see if a punter’s had a bad review from someone, and I can ask for a deposit.”

Latham hopes people won’t go in expecting Dear Mr Andrews to be a glamorous Secret Diary of a Call Girl-style beach read. Actually, it’s more in the realism vein of a recent spate of Australian titles written by sex workers: Come by Rita Therese; Nothing But My Body by Tilly Lawless; Money for Something by Mia Walsch and Happy Endings by Bella Green. Similarly to many of those, Latham’s book is a call to arms to decriminalise sex work, which she considers increasingly urgent as the cost-of-living crisis sees more women signing up as escorts, to fewer clients. “Therefore the prices go down and people can push things like not wearing condoms,” she says. “The exploitation level goes up when there’s the need.”

There are some people on the internet who don’t want to be found. That seems to be the case for the elusive, mysterious owner of Stripperweb, a 20-year-old forum for exotic dancers and sex workers. With just one week of advance notice, the forum’s unknown owner announced that the website will shut down on February 1, erasing the decades-long digital footprint of a community on the margins.
