Pretty Woman was released in 1990. One of the most beloved and successful romantic comedies of all time, the film tells the Cinderella story of a sex worker, played by Julia Roberts, who finds love with a slick businessman - Richard Gere - after he picks her up on Hollywood Boulevard.Fast forward to 2025 and the astonishing Oscar success of Anora - director Sean Baker's tale of a young sex worker whose whirlwind affair with a Russian billionaire's son turns bad, fast.So how has the way we treat sex work on screen changed? Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode delve into the long and thorny relationship between cinema and sex work. Mark speaks to film historian and critic Pamela Hutchinson about how sex work has been tackled in over a hundred years of movies - from early silent films like Pandora's Box, to the work of Sean Baker. They discuss Jane Fonda's Oscar-winning turn as a ‘call girl' in Klute, and look at how male sex worker films like Midnight Cowboy might approach the subject differently. Meanwhile, Ellen talks to Andrea Werhun, the writer, performer and real-life sex worker who served as a consultant on Anora - about her work on the film, and her love for another Richard Gere sex work film, American Gigolo. And Ellen also speaks to Kristen Lovell and Zachary Drucker, whose 2023 documentary The Stroll traced the history of trans sex workers in New York City's Meatpacking District. Kristen and Zachary discuss why sex work has been a key part of trans history - and what they think Anora's success means for sex workers.

She uses her unique immigrant experience and perspective as a way to draw intersection between race, cultural background, and sexuality.

This week on Holly Randall Unfiltered, we sit down with the fiercely unapologetic and refreshingly candid Gal Ritchie—a rising star whose journey from professional dominatrix in the UK to award winning adult performer is anything but ordinary. In this episode, Gal opens up about her early beginnings, and the unconventional upbringing that shaped her confidence. With a progressive mother who brought her to burlesque shows and avant-garde art performances about sexuality, Gal was encouraged from a young age to explore her identity as a performer—not shamed for it. She talks about how this open environment helped her make safer, more informed choices in sex work and why she feels proud—not victimized—by the path she's chosen. Gal also shares what it was like shooting her first adult scenes, winning the coveted Best New Performer at XBiz and AVN, navigating cultural differences after moving to Los Angeles, and what it's like building friendships outside the industry. She offers razor-sharp insights into stigma, empowerment, and the freedom of separating sex from emotion. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the power of self-expression, the realities of sex work, and the courage it takes to live life on your own terms. ____________________________________________________________ Patreon members get the VIP treatment: uncensored, ad-free, and a bonus Q&A!

On this week's program, we hear from Bee and Rory about the targeting of Asian-migrant sex workers, increased raids committed by Australian Border Force through Operation Inglenook, and the ongoing violence and surveillance of street-based sex workers. First, we'll hear a conversation with Bee on 3CR's Tuesday Breakfast. Bee is a migrant sex worker, outreach peer support worker for women of cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds for Vixen and AMSWAG (Asian Migrant Sex Worker Advisory Group) under the Scarlet Alliance. They are also a member of Justice for Our Sisters. This interview originally aired on Tuesday 15th April. We will then hear from Rory, a sex worker and peer support worker with Vixen who spoke at the action organised outside the Department of Home Affairs in Naarm on Thursday 17th April. This rally was organised by Vixen to demand an end to racist profiling of Asian-migrant sex workers at work and at the border; an end to the raids and to shut down Operation Inglenook; cops and Border Force out of sex worker spaces, and full decriminalisation for all sex workers, including street-based workers. Content warning: Listeners are advised that the following program includes descriptions of police raids and references to violence against sex workers. If you are a migrant sex worker in need of support, you can reach out to your local peer organisation.

NSP #65 we spoke with Maggie McNeill about the politics of sex work, censorship, science fiction, and libertarianism. Maggie was a librarian in suburban New Orleans, but after an acrimonious divorce she took up sex work; from 1997 to 2006 she worked first as a stripper, then as a call girl and madam. She eventually married her favorite client and retired to a ranch in Oklahoma, but returned to escorting part-time in 2010 and full-time in 2015 after another divorce (this time amicable) and a move to Seattle. She's been a sex worker rights activist since 2004, and since 2010 has written “The Honest Courtesan”, a daily blog which discusses sex work, politics, anarchism, philosophy and other topics. She has also published articles in venues such as Reason and the Washington Post; given innumerable lectures, talks, radio & video interviews; and is frequently consulted by academics and journalists as an expert on sex work.

Keith and Mike examine the nuances of modern dating with the clinical detachment of two men who've spent far too much time on dating apps. They begin by dissecting the increasingly common expectation for men to send daily "good morning" texts, a phenomenon Keith describes as both psychologically revealing and extremely stupid. Mike proposes outsourcing these texts to offshore call centers or an AI assistant, both of which he suspects would outperform the average man. The segment concludes with a meditation on communication as performance versus communication as evidence of actual affection. The conversation then drifts, as it often does, into a granular exploration of sexual technique, including thrusting strategies, vocal coaching, and the sociocultural ramifications of vigorous fingering. Keith offers a brief anatomical aside on the bone structure of mammalian penises, which is less of a non sequitur than it sounds. Mike draws a comparison between poorly instructed fingering and receiving directions like “touch me like a grapefruit,” which somehow makes sense in context. There is also a serious discussion of how women might coach men toward more satisfying encounters, though no conclusive solution is reached. From there, the hosts turn their attention to the challenges facing women in their mid-30s who are trying to find a long-term partner before their fertility window closes. Keith outlines a strategy he calls "industrialized dating," inspired by a friend who scheduled more than ten first dates per week and maintained a spreadsheet to keep track. Mike compares this to the scheduling practices of professional sex workers, which is meant as a compliment. They explore whether delaying sex can effectively filter out unserious suitors, or if it merely selects for the most patient ones. Finally, the hosts circle back to the central dilemma: how can women efficiently vet potential husbands without becoming either emotionally drained or what Mike refers to as "a sex worker for free." Various strategies are proposed, including cryptic date-countdown policies and ambiguous sexual timelines designed to disorient men just enough to reveal their true intentions. Keith recommends maximizing throughput. Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

In this episode of Holly Randall Unfiltered, we dive deep into the inspiring journey of Leilani Li, a trailblazing black trans woman in the adult industry. Leilani candidly shares her early experiences with survival sex work to her transition into mainstream porn, making history as the first black trans woman to win two prestigious AVN Awards.  But getting here wasn't easy—Leilani faced some frightening and dangerous situations in her early days. She openly reflects on her journey: from a manipulative young woman doing what she had to in order to survive, to the honest, confident, and hard-working woman she is today. And for those contemplating a career in sex work (in all it's forms), Leilani offers invaluable advice: highlighting the crucial priorities of safety, client screening, and mental health preservation. She opens up about how she deals with internet trolls, her advice for young trans women getting into porn, and how she stays grounded. She and Holly also debate the industry's progression towards embracing diversity and celebrating trans performers: is it enough?  Leilani's story is not only a testament to her resilience and success, but also an honest and eye opening revelation of how sex work can turn from something that one does simply for survival, to a viable career path that brings a true sense of purpose to one's life.  Patreon members get the VIP treatment: uncensored, ad-free, and a bonus Q&A!

Last week, a Brazilian man who rented out properties across rural Ireland under false pretences and used them as brothels, was jailed for nine years.Ilamar Rodrigues Ribeiro, who pleaded guilty to brothel keeping, possession of child pornography, and money laundering, was linked to rental properties in counties Longford, Kildare, Cavan, Wexford, Roscommon, Leitrim and Carlow.The case highlighted how the sex industry continues to thrive throughout Ireland, while also shining a light on the State's 2017 legislation which made the purchase of sex illegal, but not the sale.The legislation was designed to shift the legal burden towards those who buy sex rather than the sellers, aiming to protect those most at risk within the sex industry. But has this worked?A long-awaited review of the legislation, which was finally published last week, acknowledged that the demand for sexual services has not decreased in recent years.Why is enforcing this legislation so difficult and do those within the sex industry feel more protected by this law?Irish Times reporter Órla Ryan discuses the review of Ireland's contentious sex-work legislation.

Hello all!  This week we discuss humanitarian and urban missionary Margaret Prior and her founding of the American Female Moral Reform Society, a progressive group originally created to help the plight of poor women stuck in sex work in pre-Civil War New York City.  Prior worked tirelessly to help fellow women, believe in a hand out and a hand up. The society tackled the issues in a frank and forthright way, noting that there would be no sex work if men weren't purchasing it and if women were to be shamed for doing it then men should be shamed for buying it.  

Sleeper Cab Secrets: Cheating, Lot Lizards, and the Seedy Truck Stop UndergroundCheating doesn't always happen in a bedroom.Sometimes, it happens in a parking lot off the interstate—engine idling, lights low, and phones silenced.In this episode, we dig into the hidden world of lot lizards—sex workers who frequent truck stops—and the truckers who cheat with them.

In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Ash, a former legal sex worker in Nevada, who shares her perspective on the harsh realities behind the glitzy illusion of brothel work. From starting on OnlyFans to navigating the complexities of legal brothels, Ash offers firsthand accounts of financial struggles, safety concerns, and the psychological toll the industry can take. She discusses the hidden costs, the manipulation behind the scenes, and why many workers, in her experience, find themselves trapped in a cycle of false promises and financial instability.

This week, I welcome adult film stars, Ameena Green and Willow Ryder, to discuss their experiences in the adult industry. The conversation covers their personal journeys, the importance of research and preparation before entering the industry, financial discipline, and the dynamics of living and working together. They also touch on the significance of communication on set, self-care practices, and maintaining boundaries with fans while fostering a genuine connection. We also delve into the complexities of navigating fan expectations, the importance of community support, and the challenges of building a positive reputation in the adult industry. They discuss the need for clear boundaries with fans, the significance of having a supportive network, and how to address harmful behavior within the industry. The conversation also touches on the pros and cons of working in the adult industry, offering valuable advice for those considering entering this field.

In this thought-provoking discussion, Cameron and Nathan dive deep into the cultural implications of the film Anora, a modern Cinderella story celebrating the sex industry, and its controversial impact on societal values. As Christians, they reflect on the troubling normalization of morally questionable behavior in mainstream media, including the glorification of sex work and public nudity at high-profile events like the Oscars. Drawing on biblical teachings and historical insights, they explore the shift away from shame and discuss the dangers of equating financial success with moral virtue. With a focus on long-term consequences, they urge Christians to critically evaluate current cultural trends, while challenging the rise of a “happy pagan” worldview and its potential harm to both individuals and society. This video offers a deeper theological perspective on how Christians should engage with today's rapidly changing moral landscape.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

"It's a legal industry. We should bank it". That was the view of ANZ Chief Antonia Watson on whether sex workers should be able to get bank loans easily. It came up as an issue during a select committee hearing this week as part of NZ First MP Andy Foster's "anti woke banking bill." But despite the view of ANZ, some sex workers have told RNZ they feel they've been treated unfairly by banks and other financial services. Money Correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Lisa Owen.

What is a sugar daddy, really? The answer might disturb you. Brook Urick takes us into the shadowy world of sugar dating, where young women are lured into dangerous situations under the guise of financial security. From being a would-be sugar baby to becoming the public face of SeekingArrangement, Urick unveils the unsettling truth about these platforms and their role in enabling predatory behavior. Urick's revelations go beyond personal experience. She exposes how these websites intentionally protect exploiters, with their founder even caught in a sting operation attempting to meet a minor. With the passage of FOSTA-SESTA in 2018, making these platforms criminally liable, she questions why they still exist. Her goal? To bring public awareness and legal scrutiny to an industry built on deception and harm. Shermer and Urick discuss the realities of sugar dating, the blurred lines between sex work and exploitation, and the psychology of men and women in the industry. They explore legal and ethical debates, feminist perspectives, and societal consequences of prostitution and pornography.
