When I tried sex work for the first time, I braced for some sort of emotional blowback, like something bad would happen cause I'd heard people like Matt say this stuff before. But when I left, I didn't feel any of that. I felt incredible. And then I was mad people had lied to me.

Sex work is not real work. It is the reduction of the self into an object to be used and discarded by strangers. A woman on OnlyFans invites the world to devalue and dehumanize her. Self-debasement for profit. Nothing noble or respectable about it.

"I can't believe I hadn't been doing this my entire life," I remember telling my friends. "This was fine. I don't feel bad at all. I was scared I'd feel gross, or dehumanized, but I don't. Why did they all tell me I would??"

To be clear, some women do have difficulty handling it emotionally, and do feel gross/used. Prob those women shouldn't be doing sex work if they have other options that are better for them. Also, other jobs make ppl feel grossed and used, and you should condemn those too.
