Everyone loves to say “sex work is work” or “sex work is empowering.” And while I’ll always support sex workers, I don’t support the industry. In this episode I break down why - from the history of sex as taboo, to the illusion of empowerment on OnlyFans, to the harsh realities of survival sex work, trafficking, and stripping. We’ll talk privilege, “choice feminism,” the male gaze, and why most of this isn’t liberation - it’s survival.
