There is a huge, multifront attack on sex workers right now. Many harmful proposals are touted under false pretenses and deceive the public of their total scope. This is especially disappointing because we are reaching a place in adult entertainment and sex work where women who would have often been viewed as props in the past are finally able to control (to a larger degree) the narrative of what sex work is all while producing, owning and distributing their own content and services. I personally know a few different wonderful, happy, and empowered people who are sex workers or who work in adult entertainment and lately I find myself more and more worried about their safety and livelihoods.

This is especially ridiculous given the frequency with which adult entertainment and sex work is 'consumed.' Nearly everyone enjoys the products of the adult industry, but very few are willing to stand up for (or even refrain from attacking) those who provide them (especially if the provider is a woman).

I thank people like yourself for helping to raise awareness around these issues. If only we could get the rest of the consumers out there to take a stand with you guys.

Thanks for all your hard work!
