Prejudice
I read in a newspaper a few weeks ago, that the ARMY was recruiting atEurope's biggest Gay Festival--MANCHESTER PRIDE.
A SPOKESPERSON SAID:'they need not fear intimidation, prejudice or bullying.....'
So all of the taboos are being stipped away---BAR ONE.
PROSTITUTION.
The fear of being 'found out' or identified as a sex worker, thwarts all kinds of advancement in the world---and it really must stop.
Colour, creed, sexual orientation or even having been a criminal-----these do not stop people from doing what they want to do.
When is Britian going to grow up???
My M.P could be black, (openly)gay or an ex jailbird----but i bet he/she couldn't have been a sex worker.
Things simply have to change.........

In some respects and to SOME EXTENT I do agree with what you've written, although there are (I believe), some inaccuracies.
To beign with - being an "ex-jailbird" frquently (and rightly) DOES stop advancement in the world. There are many crimes that require a period of good conduct before the proverbial "slate is wiped clean" - but until that period has expired and the conviction has become "spent", advancement in the real world is well and truly thwarted. Once that conviction is spent, the "ex-jailbird" no longer has to declare that crime and I dare say that if he/she could prove that advancement in the world had been halted becuase of that "spent" conviction, then I suppose they'd have rights to redress through the tribunal system and/or courts.
With regard to sex workers - well, I know of a porn star who recently ran for office in the United States. Would I also be correct in thinking that a former prime minister/president in Italy was a formenr Porn performer too???
I fully acknowledge that there is a huge amount of prejudice against sex workers and I absoluely agree that it is out of synch with modern times. But the times ARE changing - all things adult industry related ARE gaining greater social respectability and I am sure that as these things are challenged, the walls will begin to crumble... There are challenges ahead but it's not always as cut and dried as it seems - it is the gutter press that has MUCH to answer for!

I'm sure its time we at least had a "Sex Workers Pride" in this country. When we stop fearing being "outed" we can start to be accepted?

And Yes Cynthia (who i was only chatting to today) also stood and was affiliated to Screaming Lord sutch's MONSTER RAVING LOONEY PARTY.
Lindy St Clair---sure---but it's being taken SERIOUSLY that eludes us.
I was only thinking the same thing myself---having a grand parade of PRIDE IN WHO WE ARE
(another thing i mentioned in my worthy tome)---but WHO WOULD COME?????
So many workers are ashamed/or feel the heat of shame foisted apon them-----.
We, (both women AND men who work in the industry) are unsung heroes----we really do, in many cases hold the fabric of society TOGETHER.
WE SHOULD ALL BE GIVEN A PAT ON THE BACK (that i WOULD like to see).
I have difficulty reconciling my gross habits with my net income
