Untold Intimacies: a History of Sex Work in Aotearoa, 1978-2008 is a new book written by historian of sex, gender, and health, Cherl Ware, published by Auckland University Press. In June 2003, New Zealand became the first country to decriminalise sex work. Through the lived experiences of 25 individuals, the book is an account of the stories of sex workers in Aotearoa and the industry's transformation over this critical 30 year period. Drawing on new and archival interviews, Ware tells their stories through an in-depth historical investigation from the regulation of brothels with the Massage Parlours Act of 1978, through the struggle for decriminalisation to the legally mandated national review of the law in 2008. Sofia had a kōrero with author Cheryl Ware about the importance of this body of research, writing the book, and her reflections now.

Is marriage the pinnacle of success—or just more unpaid labor dressed up in paperwork? In this final Sex Work VS miniseries episode, I get personal about my own marriages and question what we're really chasing when we romanticize commitment. Sex work gave me the distance to see it differently: the self-absorbed oxytocin highs, the cultural expectations, and the silent costs of being a “good partner.” If you've ever second-guessed the path laid out for you, this one's for you.Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/evaohMore on Eva Oh: https://eva-oh.comHIGHLIGHTS:Here are the timestamps for the episode.

What's the difference between being paid for your emotional labor and giving it away for free? In this episode of the Sex Work VS miniseries, I explore how sex work reshaped my approach to relationships. From unreciprocated efforts with cis-het men to the gratitude that comes with being paid, I reflect love, and raising my standards. We'll talk about oxytocin, one-sided coaching, the myth of romantic stability—and why financial independence feels far more secure. This isn't about giving up on intimacy. It's about knowing your worth, and deciding who (or what) deserves your time.Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/evaohMore on Eva Oh: https://eva-oh.comHIGHLIGHTS:Here are the timestamps for the episode.

Lea Lexis began her journey as a competitive gymnast in Romania, but everything changedwhen she was scouted for porn—launching her into a world that would redefine her completely.She brought her gymnastics talent into her scenes: think sex 20 feet in the air, suspended onsilks. But Lea was ambitious and used her many talents: from backwards bending blowjobs toset building to wardrobe design (is there anything this woman CAN'T do?) to get ahead in theindustry.She opens up about crying mid-scene, regretting a DP in a handstand, and why porn becamethe safest place to explore desires that were never accepted where she came from. She hasdemolished houses, shot feral scenes in the rubble, and reclaimed every part of herself in theprocess.Now, as a director and producer for brands such as Brazzers, Digital Playground, and Twistys,Lea brings that same fearless energy behind the camera. Her performer background shapedher into a woman who deeply understands the value of trust, safety, and respect onset—because she's lived it.

Today's episode focuses on the mid-term elections in the Philippines which were held in May of this year, including all local elected positions, all seats in the House of Representatives, and twelve of the twenty-four seats in the Senate. The elections have been viewed as a reflection on the administration of President Ferdinand ‘Bongbong' Marcos, Jr. and as especially consequential for the future of Vice-President Sara Duterte. She was impeached by the House of Representatives in February 2025, setting the stage for a trial by the Senate, but with her continuing popularity making her a serious contender for the presidency in 2028. To interpret the mid-term elections, Dialogues on Southeast Asia has turned to Dr. Sharmila Parmanand, an Assistant Professor in Gender, Development and Globalisation in the Department of Gender Studies at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and also an Associate and member of the Management Committee of the LSE's Saw Swee Hock Southeast Asia Centre. Dr. Parmanand's research focuses on the intersection of gender and politics in the Philippines, ranging from sex work and migration policies to the connections between gender, nationalism, and democracy. She is currently working on her first book, titled Saving Our Sisters: The Politics of Anti-Trafficking and Sex Work in the Philippines, but she is also busy conducting research, writing, and publishing on other fronts, including a new collaborative project on queer activism across Southeast Asia.

"You made a point in your recent call in with the OnlyFans woman that women shouldn't feel accomplished for making money from selling their images on OnlyFans because they haven't earned their beauty. However, as you do well know IQ is 80% genetic and becomes more genetic as you get older. You Stef yourself experienced a childhood that would be the model of creating a homeless drug addict living in the street, however you did not become a drug addict or homeless, in fact you became a very successful businessman both as a former software executive and also now as a self-employed philosopher. So despite all the environmental odds being against you as a poor child living in a home with an absent father and a dysfunctional mother; you achieved great success, and your success stems not from your environment but your high IQ and your work ethic, both of which are largely genetic, in fact just as much genetic as women who have big boobs, perfect facial structure and peachy booty is also genetic. Now there is some environmental tailoring that can be done such as going to the gym or working hard, however work ethic is also largely genetic. Interestingly, I would in fact argue that that a persons physical body is actually less genetically determined than a persons IQ; the amount of physical transformation a woman's body can go through from the gym is more extreme than anything a person could attempt to do to increase their IQ. Jordan Peterson said there is nothing that can be done to increase IQ. So the point of all this backstory is to ask ‘Why do you think women selling photos of themselves is not good because they haven't earned it, they just inherited it like winning the lottery?.' You yourself didn't earn your high IQ and pretty much everything a person does whether it is work ethic, personality is all driven largely by predetermined genetic factors. In extreme cases someone who is born with a high IQ can be totally destroyed by the environment to the point they can't read, but generally speaking apart from extreme cases everything a person does and every accomplishment a person has earned is the result of innate genetic inheritance. Thus, why would you say a woman hasn't earned her beauty shouldn't sell it when you Stef haven't earned your high IQ? Does this suggest a bias where you believe intellectual work; though just as much predetermined as a woman's physical appearance is superior to says OnlyFans work, and does this suggestion instigate any personal reflection in yourself that suggests the reason you are against women selling their beauty on OnlyFans and the like, is because you inherited a high IQ and as such you have a bias to do work that suits your natural genetic predisposition? Thus, would you acknowledge it is an inconsistent argument to make that women who make money from their genetic disposition is bad because they quote, ‘haven't earned it'?""- Sorry, risking life and limb to spread peaceful parenting and moral philosophy is the same as selling pictures of your butthole on the internet? Do you even hear yourself?""@freedomain I do not disagree with the claim that peaceful parenting has tremendous value for society, certainly more value than quote ,'butthole' pics. However, you did not make that claim in your conversation with the OnlyFans woman and that was not the claim I was disputing in my question. I was specifically disputing your claim that women haven't earned the ability to make money using their body because it's ‘unearned'. At 1hour:30min of your OnlyFans woman call-in you said Quote:"‘I think that we end up happier if we get paid for things that just aren't accidental to us'."You then said to the OnlyFans caller ‘You did not earn your body'. Again this is a bad argument because a lot of people put a lot of work in the gym and dieting to get an amazing body so your assumption that OnlyFans women didn't earn their body is in many cases false. I've noticed from my experience at the gym, that women who have a great perfect butt are far more common in the gym then you would expect to find by chance by walking around in random public places. I'm certain there is a type of perfect peachy ideal female butt that certain women have that is largely the result of hard work in the gym, not solely the result because genetics are also involved of course, but an enhanced female butt is certainly the result of hard work in the gym based on my own first-hand observations of women in the gym. However, the main problem with your argument is that - All abilities whether it is the height of a basketball player, the strength of a bricklayer, the petite stature of a ballerina or the mental ability of a philosopher stems from inate 'unearned' genetic factors. Thus, a woman has just as much right to sell photos of her ‘butthole', as a computer programmer has the right to use their high IQ to earn money. So this specific argument you were making in the call-in was a bad argument for all the reasons I have listed herein. You could make the argument that ‘tits and ass' pics add no value to society, but on the contrary philosophy and peaceful parenting does, however you did not make that argument in your call-in. I was simply pointing out in my question that you used a flawed argument rather than a good argument during your recent OnlyFans woman call-in. I think you should add a prelude to your OnlyFans call-in to let future viewers know that you presented a bad argument on this specific point. It's not a big deal because in a 2 plus hour convo you can miss what you may or may not have already said, however considering 10% of American women between 18-28 are already selling ‘tits and ass' pics on Onlyfans, you may see it Stef as your responsibility to provide a thorough argument as to why women shouldn't do OnlyFans rather than the flawed 'unearned' argument you presented in your recent OnlyFans call-in and apend it to the end of the call-in.""- She never talked about putting hours in the gym - she said she was just grew big breasts.

People often ask Eva Oh how her partners “handle” her job — but maybe the better question is: Would a sex worker date you? In this flashback episode of #teakink, Eva explores how sex work can sharpen communication, boundaries, and emotional intelligence — and why those who work in it may have higher standards, not lower ones. This episode sets the stage for an upcoming miniseries on sex work, dating, and marriage.Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/evaohMore on Eva Oh: https://eva-oh.comHIGHLIGHTS:Here are the timestamps for the episode.

Send us a textIn this episode of Sex, Drugs, and Soul, I chat with certified sexologist Coral Osborne. Our paths crossed in Austin at various events, and I've been impressed by her advocacy for men and the valuable insights she shares online on topics such as dating, intimacy, and authentic relating. We also share stories from our lived sex work experiences and how they have informed our views on intimacy, personal growth, and relationships. We explore everything from the Madonna-Whore complex, eroticizing trauma, and self-inquiry to why men often seek out sex workers, how childhood informs our relationships, and the subtle ways we deflect vulnerability, like making vulgar jokes to avoid being seen. If you find yourself feeling disheartened about modern dating, confused by relationship dynamics, or curious about intimacy drivers and lived sex work experiences delivered in a no-BS style, give this one a go. 00:00 - Introduction02:08 - Exploring Personal Turn-Ons 04:04 - Navigating Radical Honesty and Vulnerability05:46 - The Impact of Past Experiences on Sexuality09:06 - Understanding Men's Core Desires and Wounds11:50 - The Madonna-Whore Complex in Male Psychology14:58 - Self-Inquiry for Emotional Availability18:06 - Dating in the Modern Age: Apps vs. Real Life20:46 - Polarity and Gender Dynamics in Relationships25:04 - Navigating Modern Dating Dynamics28:03 - The Complexity of Receiving and Giving30:30 - Understanding Masculinity and Emotional Needs32:56 - Childhood Influences on Adult Relationships40:23 - Addressing Common Sexual Struggles47:20 - Upcoming Projects and ResourcesConnect with Coral:WebsiteInstagramStay tuned for her podcast that will be launching in July!Connect with Kristin:WebsiteInstagramYouTube Kristin's Best-Selling Book:Sex, Drugs, & Soul on AmazonSpotify Audiobook LinkSubscribe to the Podcast:YouTubeSpotifyApple

There's concerns a former Prime Ministerial staffer hasn't faced charges after allegedly voice-recording sex workers. Michael Forbes has quit as acting deputy press secretary over allegations he took compromising recordings of sex workers, and photos of women he didn't know. A Wellington brothel complained to police last July, who found it didn't meet the threshold for prosecution. Sex Workers' Collective regional coordinator Cherida Fraser says sometimes it's just the tip of the iceberg. She explained more harm could occur, despite this seemingly being at the lower end of the spectrum. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I also share the satisfaction of cleaning my apartment and tackling laundry (adulting, anyone?). But the real conversation kicks in when I ask: Do we still look down on sex work in 2025?

EPISODE 267: Interview with Zara Shah. Zara Shah is a Pakistani-Canadian queer sex worker.

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!

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.
