Advocating for Trans&Sex Workers Rights! - a podcast by CTR Network

Learn to understand and dispel the myths around Trans Sex Workers and their need for advocacy!

Have you ever wondered why it is illegal to pay someone to give you an orgasm? Does it make sense for the government to dictate the framework in which two consenting adults are allowed to experience sexual pleasure?

Sex work is a Taboo topic, yet not discussing it allows for the perpetuation of many misconceptions and falsehoods about what it means to be a consensual and empowered Sex Worker.

Sex workers and Trans people are some of the most vilified and therefore vulnerable people in our society. So what would it look like for society to be supportive instead?

In this episode of Sex Is Medicine, Devi speaks with Trans Right Activist, Corey Keith, about the oppression of sex workers and Trans folks and what we can do as individuals, and as a society, to flip that script.

-The intersection of Trans Sex Workers
-Why Trans folks enter the sex trade
-Dispelling the myths
-Present Oppressive laws
