Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

Dolly was, of course, Dolly. Incomparable. And in addition to her many other wonderful qualities, she also starred in one of the most surprisingly-sympathetic-to-sex worker films out there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfGQ...

The fascist call to familial and national strength is the same stuff documented by Wilhelm Reich in the 30s. "Sexually awakened women, affirmed and recognised as such, would mean the complete collapse of the authoritarian ideology." So wild to see them lay it out so directly.
More than the economic dependency of the wife and children on the husband and father is needed to preserve the institution of the authoritarian family. For the suppressed classes, this dependency is endurable only on condition that the consciousness of being a sexual being is suspended as completely as possible in women and in children. The wife must not figure as a sexual being, but solely as a child-bearer. Essentially, the idealization and deification of motherhood, which are so flagrantly at variance with the brutality with which the mothers of the toiling masses are actually treated, serve as means of preventing women from gaining a sexual consciousness, of preventing the imposed sexual repression from breaking through and of preventing sexual anxiety and sexual guilt-feelings from losing their hold. Sexually awakened women, affirmed and recognised as such, would mean the complete collapse of the authoritarian ideology. Conservative

Whenever I go to read a "dark romance" and it's like "I'm in love with a serial killer, but it's ok because he only kills child molesters / wifebeaters / other serial killers," I can't help but think the author is a coward.

Today is International Sex Workers Day. You may know me as a physician. But I am also a sex worker. It started when I was 20, when I became an escort to support myself through university. That led me into adult film work, which eventually led me to become a dominatrix.

Answer me this.. were the women taken to the “Island “ really trafficked or are they just prostitutes now trying to justify their career choices? I bet they  enjoyed the perks of the job really but that doesn’t make good conversation around the dinner table.

Our repsonse: The reason many survivors are hesitant to come forward is because of attitudes like this.
Knowing you'll never be believed no matter how much trauma or pain you've been through is its own tragedy.

The reason Moby Dick is the most American novel ever written is because it is about a violent white man enacting a confusing revenge fantasy against a cheap source of oil.

We love going on podcasts. But if your topic of debate is "should sex workers be forced to be a buffer class between violent misogynists who want sex and respectable women who don't deserev abuse"? Hard pass. Sex workers do not exist to be targets for violence.

Scarlet Alliance, Australian Sex Workers Association @scarletalliance.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
On International Sex Workers' Rights Day we reiterate the importance of decriminalisation of sex work. Sex work is work! And there is still much more to do before it is recognised as such in Australia. Read our decriminalisation briefing paper scarletalliance.org.au/wp-content/u...
Sex work is workToday is International Sex Workers’ Rights Day
Sex work is work, and sex workers deserve respect, equality, and the same rights and protections as all workers. 
On 3 March 2001, over 25,000 sex workers in India gathered for the Kolkata Sex Worker Freedom Festival to advocate for sex worker rights, including safety at work. Prohibitionist groups tried to prevent the festival from taking place by pressuring the government to revoke the group’s permit, but were unsuccessful. 

Since then, 3 March has become an important date to promote sex worker rights, highlighting the need for sex work to be recognised as legitimate work and for sex workers to be protected under the law. Recognising sex work as work is a vital step towards fighting for decriminalisation, anti-discrimination protections and labour rights.Did you know that in some parts of unceded Australia, sex work and sex workers are still criminalised?

The fight for sex work to be recognised as real work in Australia is far from over. Until all sex workers are free from discrimination, stigma and criminalisation, none of us are truly free.
But I thought sex work was “legal” in Australia?
Decriminalisation removes laws and penalties criminalising all aspects of sex work between consenting adults. Sex work is then covered under existing health and safety laws.
Legalisation involves laws and regulations permitting sex work under certain conditions, while all other sex work remains criminalised. Under legalisation, governments impose special regulations just for the sex industry.
Sex work is partially criminalised in WA
Full criminalisation in SA

"What they’re selling is not purity culture with a coat of blush. It’s something more sophisticated and more dangerous as a political instrument: that the progressive sexual revolution failed women, and that the answer is hot, intentional, husband-focused sex inside a traditional marriage."

I’d love to see journalism exploring the mass deletion of SWs off X in conjunction with the rise of grok’s porn bots. There’s a certain tech bro fantasy of AI as a tool of economic deprivation against SWs. The deep resentment at the financial independence of online SW seems to have come to a head.
