On #InternationalWorkersDay, let's demand justice, dignity, and rights for all workers.

As we mark #InternationalWorkersDay, let's recognise the systemic inequalities and structural violence faced by sex workers. Criminalisation only exacerbates their vulnerabilities. It's time for policies that prioritise safety, well-being, and dignity.

After hearing from so many incredible women with inspiring stories, businesses, and mindsets this #InternationalWomensDay we’ve got some more spotlighting to do ourselves! Recently @theEllamo finished reading Emily Nagoski’s book Come As You Are, and is ready to recommend this book to everyone! Nagoski’s work is science informed, beautifully written, and crucially centres female sexuality. ✨
