I'm just so sad. Sex work rescued me from a soul crushing life, it gave me an escape - and my story is a common one! The moralistic pressure against porn as inherently exploitative is extraordinarily damaging, particularly to the underprivileged. 1/

I grew up in an oppressive religious atmosphere that viewed deviant sexuality as harmful. It would 'corrupt my soul', it would emotionally drain me, it would make me a vacant-eyed wreck. But no, it fucking didn't. They were wrong, I was fine. And they still don't believe me.

I'm mad at every person who irresponsibly talked about how porn is damaging, how we need to protect kids, without also reminding us that we have a duty to protect the rights and freedoms of consenting adults to behave how they wish.

These people just can't imagine that maybe human beings can *be different from them*. They think hey, I'd feel horrible if I engaged in sex work, so other people must feel horrible too! Such an egregious typical mind fallacy.
