Women who sell or exchange sex and coronavirus

[AnnaClick]

Hi everyone. I’m Anna and I’m one of the people in Scotland working on the urgent task of making sure women involved in all parts of the sex industry or selling or exchanging sex are able to get access to support and information and financial help right now. We know this is a really difficult and scary time and we are urgently trying to get in touch with women. We need to hear what you need and what are the best ways to get that support and help to you. We also want to make sure that decision makers know this right now too. If you are involved then it would be great to hear from you, or if you know of someone then please pass on our info. I’m available at www.click.scot/voice/ or [email protected] I’ll also be on our online chat here www.click.scot/contact/ Tuesday 11-1 and Wednesday from 2-4pm. Our online support is also available every week day from 11am-3pm – you can check out twitter for up-to-date online support times @click_scotland Thanks.

That doesn't surprise me at all, Singasonga. Nasty business but I suppose, if someone is used to doing it, they become blase about it.

early psychological analysis suggests the impact of this can be just as damaging as physical sexual abuse:

I can believe this.

Some of you may remember we discussed this in the context of a very vulnerable young woman, a girl really, doing cam work. She was such a sweet wee thing and as fragile as glass. It was heartbreaking.

More that if someone is used to watching it, they become all blase about it, I suspect.

Good point, Singa.
