On International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers, we want to share this poem by Raven Slander about the West End Sex Workers Memorial in Vancouver.

In honor of every SWer who is no longer with us, and every SWer who has faced violence because of who they are.

I'm sure things like this happen, but how do y'all handle an overnight with a person you're meeting for the first time? Would you even schedule an overnight with a complete stranger? Do you talk about what you will do during the overnight or is it just fuck him and sleep?

[Respect Inc QLD @respectqld]
