Sex work is consensual. Sex trafficking is coerced. The crackdown on Backpage is not about ending trafficking; it’s motivated by the patriarchal notion that women should not be free to do what we want with our bodies. #DecrimNow #LetUsSurvive

In the coming days, we will be sharing more about sex workers rights to uplift this critical issue. We’re all still learning and as always, we have to listen to the voices of those most impacted. #SexWorkIsWork

Many of us already have our own websites. The problem is that it’s harder for clients to find our websites if we can’t advertise them anywhere. Other businesses promote their websites via Facebook, Twitter, & paid ads. We should be able to also.

Sex workers do pay taxes, and we have lower rates of disease than the general public because we’re highly educated in safe sex practices (there’s more to it than just wearing a condom).

I suggest talking to Julie Bindel, Rachel Moran, Rachel Lloyd, brilliant feminists who are very knowledgeable on these issues.
