I had always been curious about this sex work – I was lucky to, for whatever reason, keep out a lot of the negative messaging people around me growing up received about their sexuality.

In our latest sex worker interview series 'A Tryst With...' we chat with Vivienne Fae about work mothers, beauty, and the fetishisation of sex work.

"BDSM to me is about taking a part or parts of ourselves and blowing them up to be our entire existence in this nonlinear moment of time. This might include aspects of ourselves that may be buried and that we often do not fully understand."

"Community is at the core of SWOP and has been since its inception in 2003, when Bay Area sex workers rallied around school teacher and fellow sex worker Shannon Williams, protesting her arrest and mistreatment."

"The only games that I’ve seen touch on the theme seem to be made by non-sex workers and have players adopt the perspective of the “club manager” or similar. As far as I know, there’s no other board games where you play AS the worker."
