pink in black and white

my hands stink like my cock, chemicals and blood
passing the time, one stroke after another

my lovers won't take me
too dirty
my lovers won't fuck me
too bloody
my lovers won't call me
my name changes daily

So I love myself
dirty and bloody, calling my own name

I come undone from my bedding
and walk to the bathroom
to wash the blood from my
dirty stinking hands

cheap sex store fucking,
I'm the best lay I've had all month

Craigs List to fuck (over) workers

The anti-sex, whore hating sentiment is spilling out and up over the border and coming to Canada.

This is fairly bad news for any worker using Criags List for erotic advertising. Currently Craigs List is the most accessible advertising services to workers, its cheap, its super easy and it gives the most control to the individual posting.

Also the prohibitionists have no idea what they are talking about. They want to 'govern' sex workers through CL, as if we can't take care of ourselves, or have been for the last thousands of years.

The interesting (er... patronizing) aspects of law enforcement in relation to sex work is that it appears on the outside that they are doing it for the workers on good. Preventing sex slavery, trafficking or violence. When in reality they are taking away the ways in which workers are able to use resources available to them to protect themselves. The Internet is an extremely good supplementary resource in screening clients, and they want to limit and govern that. The police have a terrible record when it comes to protecting workers.

**as this is fairly old news an update is due when I get my ass in gear.
