    Angry Stripping stigma

    I am so annoyed I just want to vent. What really bothers me is when people call strippers filthy for shoving their pussy and boobs into men’s faces yet the same women who criticize do more than that with men they just meet or match with on tinder or bumble like on my social media I received nothing but support from other women which is nice to see instead of ignorant opinions on it however the filthy comments I get off the odd hater rages me thinking we are low life scum and that there has to be something mentally wrong with us to want to be doing this I literally want to protest or set up meetings for strippers and make people see that it isn’t this horrible job. I really enjoy it it’s just a dance we’re not giving extras or meeting customers after for a shag like how is this so wrong? Women these days go on like strippers are dirty whores that will steal their man or shag any guy who asks yet they’d be the ones going from guy to guy but that’s okay because they aren’t stripping? That is the most ridiculous thing society is so backwards it rages me

    I agree with what you said but for your own sanity, ignore those social circles of women...or hang out with different people or just be a loner. Idk what to tell you but I feel you on your frustrations

    Stripping has always had a negative stigma and it always will. Reminds me of the Mae West quote, "I believe in censorship. I made a fortune off of it." If stripping was easy and 100% socially acceptable, everyone would do it. The fear is what keeps people away, and therefore makes it a profitable industry for us. Personally I'd rather have my bills paid, zero debt, and a nice cushy nest egg set aside for my retirement even if that means being seen as a big, bad whore in the eyes of society.

    I don't care about people who talk about my stripping anymore. I don't like those dumb bitches and their sad little lifestyle makes me laugh so I don't care what they think about me or my lifestyle.

    ^^^^Ahahaha yes!!!!!

    Yeah, I don't care. Stigma is a form of male contol over women, because financially and sexually empowered women are a threat to patriarchal control. Thems just the facts. Im not interested in associating w people who are not on that level of understanding and self empowerment.

    People who buy into stigma and most other forms of societal control and rules are sheep and they are basic. Let them be basic while we glow and grow.

    I find that most women who slut shame me and other sex workers tend to do it in the name of feminism. Apparently we're just objectifying ourselves for the patriarchy.

    It's not even the SWERFS that made me give feminism the middle finger, it was the "moderates" that sweep the problems of racism and transphobia within feminism under the rug. Translation: shut the fuck up, know your place and be grateful for any table scraps thrown at you by feminism because without it you'd be barefoot and pregnant. No thank you. If I want a dogmatic ideology shoved down my throat I'll go back to the Catholic Church. At least they give booze and a wafer.

    Firstly to OP you have every right to be angry.

    Secondly, my 12 step language isn’t meant to offend- take what you like, leave the rest.

    I’ve said before that the stigma triggers my C-PSTD. That’s sucks. I thought about starting an ACA group just for sex workers. As always, anyone’s invited just PM if you have any questions.

    I believe as long as I turn to my higher power instead of people, places, and things I’ll find the right path for me.

    I was reading a book that said we basically need people to love and accept us. There’s this idea that what other people think of us shouldn’t matter, but according to our biology- it does matter. That’s why it’s soooo incredibly PAINFUL to deal with this stigma. Our Emotional brain freaks out the same as being shunned as it does to being chased down by a mob. It’s incredibly painful and stressful on our bodies.

    I think it’d would be a good idea to call a few girls from here and reach out for support.

    I’d like to start a 16 step phone meeting, but I have to work through my own issues before taking on anything additional.

    16 Steps

    We affirm we have the power to take charge of our lives and stop being dependent on substances or other people for our self-esteem and security.

    We come to believe that God / Goddess / Universe / Great Spirit / Higher Power awakens the healing wisdom within us when we open ourselves to that power.

    We make a decision to become our authentic selves and trust in the healing power of the truth.

    We examine our beliefs, addictions, and dependent behaviour in the context of living in a hierarchical, patriarchal culture.

    We share with another person and the Universe all those things inside of us for which we feel shame and guilt.

    We affirm and enjoy our intelligence, strengths and creativity, remembering not to hide these qualities from ourselves and others.

    We become willing to let go of shame, guilt and any Behavior that keeps us from loving ourselves and others.

    We make a list of people we have harmed and people who have harmed us, and take steps to clear out negative energy by making amends and sharing our grievances in a respectful way.

    We express love and gratitude to others and increasingly appreciate the wonders of life and the blessings we do have.

    We learn to trust our reality and daily affirm that we see what we see, we know what we know, and we feel what we feel.

    We promptly admit to mistakes and make amends when appropriate, but we do not say we are sorry for things we have not done, and we do not cover up, analyze, or take responsibility for the shortcomings of others.

    We seek out situations, jobs, and people that affirm our intelligence, perceptions, and self-worth and avoid situations or people who are hurtful, harmful, or demeaning to us.

    We take steps to heal our physical bodies, organize our lives, reduce stress, and have fun.
    We seek to find our inward calling, and develop the will and wisdom to follow it.

    We accept the ups and downs of life as natural events that can be used as lessons for our growth.

    We grow in awareness that we are sacred beings, interrelated with all living things, and we contribute to restoring peace and balance on the planet.

    Charlotte Kasl, Many

    im not really in a place where I can moderate a meeting, but here’s the website http://charlottekasl.com/many-roads-one-journey1/

    There are Facebook groups I believe.
