Former Adult Performer Awarded $1.735M in Discrimination Lawsuit (Nursing School)
Re: Former Adult Performer Awarded $1.735M in Discrimination Lawsuit (Nursing School)
Good for her, read about her struggles a while back. Happy that she won. So many tell us to get a so-called real job and then discriminate against us for those who want to leave sex work in the past. Can't have it both ways tells us to get a normal job and then deny us normal jobs.
This is a major win for all of us, it sets a precedent and will make it more easy for others to get lawyers when it happens again. Puts schools & employers on notice that they can't let our past keep us from moving forward in life. Especially with the current boom of sex workers, there being more than ever. Many will eventually want to move on from this career and onto another.

Her win feels like a win for us all...in a way. Sometimes I wish I carried a recorder for the times I've been discriminated against. I'll share one time that was really bad. About 6 years ago I was training Ju jitsu and became friends with a cop. I was training 5 times a week and then I did some privates with this cop who I thought was my friend but turned out to be a real creep. He would pick me up from my home and drop me off and one day he came into the building without me letting him in. He knocked on my suite and I asked how did you get in. He said "I'm a cop I can come in any time". RED FLAG. This bothered me but I didn't make a big deal as who the hell would listen or believe me. Anyhow the creep vibes grew and one day my BJJ coach said to me in front of the class "strippers are not allowed to train here" followed by "you should get therapy". The cop I'm sure found some stuff online and told the teacher. What's BS is the fact that bjj website says ALL WALKS OF LIFE ARE WELCOME. followed by we don't judge. Now here's another slap across the face..... The teacher often trains with other teachers and one of the teachers was in jail for murder, which wasn't a secret. A lot criminals are in the martial arts community. A murder is not only welcomed with open arms but allowed to teach while a "stripper" isn't welcomed at all. I say in quotes because I'm a domme.... a bit different but still a sex worker. These places complain so much about how women don't join...gee I wonder why! Their whole slogan "leave your ego at the door" is the most hypocritical thing I have ever seen. Out of all people that should learn to protect themselves, its women! I would have loved to sue but who would believe, what proof do I have? none and my word against a cop, a ju jitsu teacher who is also a regular teacher and married to a counselor. I wouldn't stand a chance. Could you imagine if we carried a spy cam or voice recorder and started sharing all the bs we deal with?

NEVER EVER TRUST A COP!!!! They are mostly all criminals, they get away with rape, robbing people & murder. Statistically they are 60% by their own admission to be physically abusive in intimate relationship. They are all power hungry monsters and no one to hold them accountable. As for that saying a few bad apples, is complete bullshit. The so-called good ones don't report or arrest other cops when they commit a crime.
Literally, if you have cash on you a cop can take it legally and there is nothing you can do about it. In some states they can legally have sex with someone in cuffs or that they arrested. Keep in mind only 10% of rapes even get investigated and most rape kits sits on shelves in warehouses and never get tested.
Never get involved, trust or date a cop.
