Wishing a Happy Mother’s Day to all the SWer parents out there providing for their families 💰✨💪 We see you, and we’re excited that ProMomme parenting magazine T-shirts and Vol 1 Bootlegs will be available for purchase in LA this summer at the @feministcenterforcreativework exhibition Radical Kinship curated by @sea_flow As part of this exhibition that centers interdependence, reciprocity, and care as models for art making, The Sex Workers Guide to Parenting documentary can be viewed within the “It’s not a whore house, it’s a whore home” installation by @kimyekimyekimye This documentary was inspired by our multi-year project that started with gathering LA-area sex worker parents together (2022) to discuss how their work and family lives impacted each other, and resulted in the ProMomme parenting zine designed by SWOPLA’s own @mailordermilf and co-published with @cashmachinela and @smingsmingbooks (2024). Go see the film during gallery hours, and pick up a t-shirt or last remaining bootlegs to support our work! All donations go directly to funding our grassroots SW-powered org, and allows us to continue doing what we do. You can also donate directly via the link in our @swopla bio 💸💕 Stay tuned for more announcements and a ProMomme Vol 2 summer drop coming soon! 🤫✨ Our commitment to this work remains undefeated!

It’s #LesbianVisibilityWeek! This week, and every week, we honor the sexy dykes in our SWer community. From lipstick lesbians and long haired butches to trans-masc daddies and stone top studs, we love every unique identity under the “lesbian” umbrella. What unites us is just as powerful as what sets each of us apart. Shout out to @dykedayla who plan events, community gatherings and activations for every flavor of dyke all year round! 🧡🩷🤍✨ #LesbianVisibilityWeek #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs

We’ve been holding this close for a while… and we’re finally ready to share it. 🖤 The Sex Worker’s Guide to the Apocalypse (SWGA) is officially in motion, and it’s exactly what our community needs right now! We’ve secured funding to pay our 16 contributors, who are putting the final touches on their written pieces, pouring their experience and wisdom into every page. We still need support to bring the rest of this vision to life: printing the guide, producing the videos, and hosting the carnival. One of our biggest priorities? Making sure this guide is free and accessible to worker–focused and aligned organizations. If you believe in community care, mutual aid, and making sure no one is left behind — we’d love your support. 🎉 Tap the link in our bio to donate to our Givebutter campaign 🎉 Share this post to help us reach more people We’re building something powerful together, we're so grateful you’re right here with us. ♥️
