But, for example, if I were to escort again I could either offer all my services on a site which allowed it (Adultwork) OR I could cam on SM but offer escorting under the same name independently, and promote both via my twitter. Note: escorting is legal in my country, so that's not a factor in my business. If nobody's judging escorting and just don't want it offered on a cam site where it's prohibited, that's cool right? Because I wouldn't be breaking any contracts, I'd be legal, and it'd be my business to run as I please. Like a hair salon offering manicures too. It all falls under the same umbrella.
A lot of escorts can be really sensitive during discussions like this because yeah, they're horribly stigmatised even within the sex work industry. Consider the worst things people think about cam girls, then double it for sex workers who meet clients personally, add a whole bunch of "fake concern" for safety as if it's never occurred to run security checks, and a shit ton of victim blaming when a girl IS harmed at work. So please remember that MarvelGirl's words are coming from years of shit from society and from colleagues, I very much doubt she's trying to be malicious or start a disagreement, just reacting to a thread where escorts have been called idiots & nasty & it's been implied they're harming cam girls. (Not by you specifically Jane, I hasten to add.)
