Why I Love Sex Work: A Playful Reflection by Poppy
Hey there! For as long as I can remember, I’ve been intensely curious about the world of sex work. This fascination drew me in, and I soaked up everything I could about the "real world" of it all. I listened to every podcast, read all the memoirs, and even indulged in the now-questionable classics like Pretty Woman and Secret Diary of a Call Girl. Those stories only fuelled my desire to dive into this exciting path!
What I love most is being my own boss. I can turn off my phone for weeks to reset in nature, which is heavenly! I set my own hours, choose who I want to spend time with, and the sex I have is genuinely enjoyable. Having someone find me so attractive that they’re willing to pay to sleep with me? Total turn-on! It’s such a thrill to intertwine work and pleasure.
Working with my best friend, Lulu, is a dream come true! Threesomes with her are not just a blast but also an adventure we get to share. And fellow sex workers? They’re my people! Open-minded, curious, and so non-judgmental. Our chats about mental health are so refreshing. Honestly, being the "sluttiest person you know" is boring—it’s the connections that really count.
One of the coolest parts? The variety of clients I get to meet! There’s something so unique about the instant connection when you’re naked with a stranger. It opens up a space for sharing secrets—things they might not feel safe telling anyone else. That vulnerability creates a special bond that I cherish.
Plus, being in charge of my own business lets me grow skills I never gained in my years in an unfulfilling office environment. I do everything a sole trader does, from managing finances to marketing my services. It gives me unlimited room to flourish.
I’ve always needed a lot of variety and excitement in my sex life, and sex work allows me to explore that fully. In the end, I’ve learned that getting stuck in the mindset of doing what you’re "supposed" to do—what others deem as right for a "good person"—can hold you back. Listening to yourself and embracing what brings you joy is truly the way to go. Sex work is more than a job for me; it’s a delightful adventure that aligns with my passions, values, and lifestyle. I embrace every moment of it and can’t wait for the next escapade!
I love speaking about this more in-depth in person, so let me know when we’re catching up (or meeting for the first time)!
