Tune in as Margo and Tashira discuss sex work in all forms: commercial sex workers, sugar babies, heuxs and gold diggers just to name a few. Tashira is unapolgetically pro-heux while Margo has some hesitations around the exploitation that's seemingly embedded into the industry. In the end, they both stand on the side of making sex work legal, consensual and safe.
