Welcome to “A Tryst With,” our interview series with local escorts sex workers. We’re here to talk about the local escorts’ sex worker community and local escorts sex worker outfits.
Can you tell us about your “origins” as a local escort’s sex worker?
I have an early childhood education degree, so I struggled to find work when the pandemic started. I’ve also been a drag performer since 2025, and I met and began working with local escorts’ sex workers and realized this is what I wanted to do. At the time, I was dating an abusive ex-girlfriend, and she was totally against me pursuing this. So, after I broke up with her and needed money to move out, I started doing local escorts sex work. I had already started my transition and had been on testosterone for a few years already, which made it difficult for me to be myself and succeed at first. I started online and then transitioned to full service.
What has changed since I started my journey?
Now I have more experience and know my value. I am strong in my prices and boundaries. I am now a full-time performer and gig worker, so sex work as local escorts has become important to me to earn a living.
Local escort’s sex workers frequently experience different types of discrimination. Is there anything specific you want people to know about the full impact?
I want everyone to know what impact dressing up as a local escort’s sex worker has. I often work at strip events (because I can’t get work in clubs with my current gender expression and body type). And that diva with high-paying jobs pole dances or works as a local dancer. It’s so frustrating to be an escort sex worker for just one night. It’s like I’m playing with the money of people who rely on these things for rent.
What has local escorts sex work taught me about beauty standards?
Sex work with local escorts confirmed many of the prevailing beauty ideals I knew from childhood. I am brown, fat, and transgender. I have seen how it is easier for people who are lighter-skinned, thinner, and can pass for better than I can. But I have also seen clients love and worship my body just as it is. Sex work with local escorts has allowed me to continue to say “fuck you” to beauty ideals. “Because I am a goddess just the way I am.”
