No more whorephobia and whore shaming too. Sex work is work. Sex workers are people to be respected. Decriminalize sex work, including prostitution. Also requiring that a certain amount of sex workers or ex-sex workers be hired at other jobs is a good idea. #SW #SexWorker #SexWork #reddistrict #onlyfans #fansly #manyvids #pornhub

While @GeneralHospital may feel woke by using the term #sexworker instead of other dated terms, the ongoing dialogue that because Jacinda is a sex worker, she's unreliable is still shame based. The characters describe her as 'the sex worker' not using her name, Jacinda.

Yes, she worked with Nina and Portia to set up Drew. That's three women involved, not two and one sex worker. Yes, Michael is paying her to be an alibi, but Tracy is lying to cover for him.

If you are a #phonesex operator, make #eroticaudios or make audio content about #sex, we'd love to hear from you at SmutMag.Art to get your tracks on our #radio station in our After Dark programming. It's a great way promote and reach people who are looking for audio.

Are you a #sexworker who is also an #artist? (Of course you are). We're also looking for daytime programming! Poetry, songs, dramas, criticism--if it's compelling, we'd love to share it!
