On Monday, I gave clients some ideas about how to help sex workers during this time when everyone is doing “social distancing”. I was considering doing one about shifting to working online (camming, phone sex, selling porn, etc), but there was only one problem with that idea: I have never done any of that kind of work before, and therefore don’t know much about it. However, my dear friend Matisse started this thread that same day, and it’s getting plenty of contributions from people who DO know; Melanie Moore’s subthread is especially thorough. So if you’re a sex worker considering this option, please read this thread. And if you’re a sex worker who has experience with this, please contribute to help your sisters. Sex workers are flexible and resilient, and one of our greatest strengths as a community is the way we stick together and help each other against a world which has been hostile to us for over two millennia.
*For Sex Workers Only*: If you do sex work online, and you have skills/tips/leads to share with sex workers who normally don’t, drop them here.
Any suggestions *from sex workers* for creating alternative forms of income for sex workers during this crisis are welcome. #sexwork— Mistress Matisse (@mistressmatisse) March 16, 2020
