    Default Why don’t escorts post anymore?

    I’ve seen it asked frequently lately.
    Some tweets from a sex worker on twitter who I should add has never advertised here, not about this forum, one in another country. In case it has a bearing, she’s young, very sexy, very popular and successful, a mix of Russian and another nationality. Any thoughts on her opinions?


    The greatest threat to sex workers safety, anonymity, health and mental well being in my opinion are review boards.
    I think the review board culture is misogynistic, racist, classist and fundamentally opposes everything I believe in as a feminist.
    The way in which WOC, POC, trans and queer workers are spoken about on these review boards disturbs me to no end.
    But, in my opinion, the most disturbing part is I believe the men on these forums enjoy the pain or sadness they cause workers.
    The thing I hate the most is that men have taken away power from workers to choose whether to participate in these boards.
    They have made these boards gain enough traction to validate or invalidate a workers "worth" as defined by their subjective experience
    So where has thus misogynistic practice lead too? Workers being forced to tolerate this behaviour for fear of losing income.
    So, if workers oppose this dehumanisation & scrutiny, they can't do anything about it because of the power imbalance between client/worker
    You are aiding patriarchal oppression, marginalising already marginalised people - all literally because you've chosen to fuck as a hobby.
    whorephobia, whoreachial behaviour, drug shaming, mental health shaming.

    While I wasn't going to refer to anyone as dickhead, it did make me smile that that was the first reply. No offence to anyone

    Have I?... didnt realise a point was required to be proven...

    This girl is a feminist, she says so. Just pointing that out firstly.

    Reviews.... Misogynist thrills or valuable sales perks... every escort will decide what she wants. There is the opt out option. So what you think DeusEX?

    Her other tweets show her to be very fun, sassy, popular with both clients and other sex workers. Writing her off as a rabid feminist is disingenuous and also ignores the point of why so many escorts don't post. Why do you think that's the case?

    K.. I'll take your word for it lad.

    The piece you gave seemed to me to be feminist. The girls I know that work in this biz do so because they want to. They don't have to enjoy it "ecstatically", but its certainly not as dour as the message that comes from this girls tweet about reviews. Most of the good escorts like the review system, so long as the review is good... obviously..

    A lady recently told us it was because of all the trash talk here. I can't speak for all the others though.

    While I do agree with some of your sentiment of your post,its unfair to make a blanket statement about all punters that use boards.
    Some of us do value the job the ladies do.:doc
    Never mistake kindness for weakness .: doc
