#nsrefugee may have been here

If you’re anything like me, you may be worried about poor labour practices, environmental issues...and above all, that you’re not throwing your money at a business that’s sexist or whorephobic. Thanks to some inspired entrepreneurs worldwide, we do have better options.

Are you friends with a sex worker? Here’s what being a bestie - and an ally - really means.

I’m truly a southern girl at heart. I like to fill my time outdoors hiking, walking my dog, practicing yoga, or in the summer I like to go out on the lake here in Georgia.

The lives of 19th century women are known to us today mainly through their letters and writing, but also through the then new (black-and-white) portrait photography, and the vivid paintings, pastels and watercolours of impressionist artists.

The vast majority of sex worker organisations are not only grassroots and run by volunteer sex workers, but due to harmful legislation and policy such as the anti prostitution pledge, they are also often cut off from government funding.
