Gemma and Seraphyna pull back the curtain on the shifting legal landscape of sex work—whether as a Dominatrix, escort, stripper, or online. As political tides rise against porn, gender identity, and online expression, one question cuts through the noise: How does a sex worker stay safe?
From red-light districts to surveillance states, the legal frameworks around sex work are a tangled web, each with its own promises and pitfalls. And in the information age, things aren’t safer. Bank accounts are frozen. AI scans your face at borders. Social platforms blur privacy rights.
Beneath it all lies a story of stigma, safety, and survival. It’s about the power dynamics hidden in legal systems—and the people they fail. Who writes the law, and who pays the price when the law gets it wrong?
