She has a cute squishy tummy (with navel piercing) and fuzzy pussy, and is wearing a pale woolen sweater, and black boots, glasses, and eyeliner/penciling.

«No Bad Women, Just Bad Police»
Some highlights from the report. ^^

Available in full at:
🌐 prostitutescollective.net/no-bad-women...

[Quotes in alt text trimmed further to make it fit — but well, they *are* textually in the report. ^~]
“I would not go to the police for anything. The laws make it impossible.” «No Bad Women, Just Bad Police» [loco: ECP] ‣ When the Police Are the Attackers “They put me down on the floor, strapped my hands and my legs… picked me up like I was a pig for slaughter and threw me in the back of the van…” “Police interrogate me… not even letting me sit down or have water. They made me remove my robe so I’m standing in underwear… One officer was taking photos.” ‣ No Protection from the Police Against Violence “We were robbed… Police asked more about our work than about the gang… Then sent a letter saying if we were seen in the house we’d be deported.” “It’s like our lives don’t matter. Girls were murdered and nothing was done. They behave like we are criminals.” ‣ Migrant, Trans, Women of Colour and Street‑Based Women as Targets “They always think Asian people are trafficking… They take the money first.” “They stop me in the street even when I’m not working… One officer said, ‘These women need to be dead’.” ‣ Criminalisation Deters Women From Reporting Violence “Girls keep quiet because they don’t have documents and fear deportation.” ‣ Raids terrorise, humiliate and displace sex workers “They raided my house. My daughter was with me, she was about five. They put me us in a hotel for the night. And then the next day they took her. The next day. She was gone.” ‣ Discrimination, Harassment, and Humiliation “They take the piss… laughing… One said to a woman, ‘You’re a bit fucking old to be doing this.’” “They stop me on the street and are very rude… They told me the man who killed prostitutes ‘did a good job.’” ‣ How Criminalisation Emboldens Violent Men “Gangs robbed many women because they knew the police would do nothing.” “Men threatened to make me work for them. Police said they cannot help.” ‣ What Would Improve Safety and Police Relations “Stop deportations and decriminalise.” “Be able to work together. The job is a job. It should be regarded as that.”

Today, December 17th, is the International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. 🖤

This day exists because sex workers continue to face violence, discrimination, and systemic harm.

December 17th is the International Day to End Violence Againts Sx Workers.

But how can we achieve this goal when the very people trusted with protecting us ignore our calls for help, take the side of the perpetrators, or assault us themselves?

🧵 #SexWorkIsWork, & #WorkShouldBeSafe. Together, we must build a world in which sex workers don't experience violence, harassment, exploitation, or disrespect. On International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers & beyond, we must do more than mourn those whose lives were stolen by violence...
Over black background is patterned illustration of white umbrellas. Large, bold, all caps font reads, "END THE CULTURE THAT ALLOWS AND PERPETUATES VIOLENCE AGAINST SEX WORKERS." The words, "AGAINST SEX WORKERS" are hot pink, the rest of the text is white. A yellow underline is placed below the words, "END THE CULTURE." Over black box in bottom right corner is NHRC white/rainbow 30th anniversary logo.

Believe it or not, the love of your life is probably getting dicked down on a porn set as we speak.

It still does not make them any less worthy of your genuine love and affection.

(1/3) Until s*x workers are safe, none of us are safe.

Tomorrow on #D17, International Day to End Violence Against S*x Workers, we honor the workers we've lost to violence and stand firm in our commitment to decriminalization.
Bold text in the middle in white & red text reads," UNTIL S*X WORKERS ARE SAFE, none of us are safe." Behind are graphics of handcuffs, a fist, copy car, a gun, and a cop with their back turned.

Today is International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. We honour all sex workers who have been murdered or have died as a result of criminalisation, stigma, and discrimination. Read our briefing papers at linktr.ee/scarlet_alliance
A black image with bold red and white text shown diagonally. The white text highlights the words End Violence Now. The Scarlet Alliance logo is a red umbrella with white text and it is in the bottom right hand corner. Today is International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. We honour all sex workers who have been subjected to violence, murdered or died as a result of criminalisation, stigma, and discrimination. These acts of violence are hate crimes. We honour them by: fighting policy failures challenging all unjust laws exposing the violent actions of governments maintaining the legacy of community-led activism built around the peers we have lost, campaigning to end the violence of Border Force against Asian migrant sex workers. Strength and solidarity from Respect Inc, SWOP NT, SIN, SWOP NSW, Magenta, SWEAR, SWOP ACT, Scarlet Alliance, Touching Base, ATSISWAG and AMSWAG State violence actively harms sex workers.Criminalisation of our work creates barriers to justice and impunity for offenders committing violence against us. Border Force raids cause profound and lasting trauma for sex workers, workplaces, and communities. Racial profiling of Asian migrant sex workers at the border results in immigration detention. It exposes migrant sex workers, particularly trans women, to significant risks of physical and sexual violence, including denial of medical care and deportation to danger. Street-based sex workers in every jurisdiction except NT and QLD continue to face arrest and ‘move-on’ notices. Working privately with a friend for safety and support is still criminalised in the ACT, SA and WA. We cannot end this violence without dismantling colonialism, racism, transphobia, homophobia, ableism, and patriarchy, and ending poverty and the criminalisation of drugs.

My book series has continued, small-form, since June 2025. While this includes essays + interviews on/with sex workers, there's also drawings based on commissioned material—so many that I made a second Acknowledgments page for new models! 1/4

vanderwaardart.com/book_gothic_...

#sexworkiswork
The opening of my new Acknowledgements page: Sex Positivity continues after its June 2025 finale in small-form content; e.g., essays on and interviews with other sex workers, but also individual artworks based on commissioned photoshoots; i.e., I've worked with models beyond those who helped me while I produced Sex Positivity. The original project began in July 2022, and whose initial Acknowledgements page concluded with over ninety models alone! To it, I've now made a second Acknowledgments page—one that honors future models, thanking any who appear in small-form content for my series, after June 2025 (to see everyone I've drawn before, during and after said series overall, refer to my Sex Work page)! Permissions: Any publicly available images are exhibited for purposes of education, transformation and critique, thus fall under Fair Use; private nude material and collabs with models are specifically shared with permission from the original owner(s). For more details about artist permissions, refer to the book disclaimer attached to each series of my blog-style book promotion; i.e., for my series volumes; e.g., "Brace for Impact," "Searching for Secrets," and "Deal with the Devil." [...] Acknowledgments (after series) "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve." —J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring (1954) Note (12/16/2025): This page contains the same opening the original acknowledgments do; i.e., the Keats analogy and comparison to Wordsworth and his sister (a group effort): one followed by my honoring new comrades. This means muses after Vera Dominus, and one-time models after Rae of Sunshine. —Perse First, to my new muses; i.e., beyond the twenty-five that appear in my book volumes: Hallie Cross, Goddess Asterin, Puppy Bat, Gem McFlowers, Luna Rose, Rhxbynn, I-Nocturne, Vivian Strange, Pupstar Darina, Alicia Axiom, Roelle the Rabbit, and Alliesha Bay. You've all lent me tremendous emotional support and helped me through some really hard times. Your solidarity helps make Gothic Communism possible, outside the actual books. To each of you, I want to give an extra-special thank you: To Hallie: Having you approach my work and ask to be involved was tremendously flattering. All the same, your honesty and willingness to share gave me a window into a wonderful person's life. I love your view of the world, but also your tendency to learn by working with an old whore like me. In particular, your knife play made my "Silksong Symposium" (2025) way more spicy than it would be otherwise! Thank you, cutie, and stay safe out there! (artist: Hallie Cross) To Goddess Asterin: Thank you, comrade, for seeing the value in my work. Sometimes I really struggle with that, so receiving praise from someone as awesome, sexy and intelligent as yourself really means a lot! To Puppy Bat: Thank you, cutie, for repeatedly posing for me on such short notice (e.g., appearing last-minute for the solidarity shoot in "The Chickens Come Home to Roost," 2025). You're incredibly hot, shapely and kind, and it's been a pleasure to work with you, as time goes on! To Gem McFlowers: Thank you, Gem, for being you; i.e., someone incredibly genuine, unique and weird, who I delighted finding more and more about. The more I learned, the more I valued you for you! To Luna Rose: Thank you, Luna, for honestly being one of the nicest people I've had the pleasure of working with. I love your sweetness and shortstack stature, but also your willingness to play with knives to weird the Nazis out. You're an absolute gem, and someone whose continued interest in my work keeps me feeling seen! Special thanks to all the other models involved, as well; your efforts continue to breathe tremendous beauty, inspiration and meaning into my work: Scylla Blair, Creepy Cryptid, Yantastik, KJKay, Hannah Hussein, Goddess Brooklyn, Who Was Seren, Naughty Nar, Iris Daydreams, and more (to be added as works are completed)! (artist: Hannah Hussein) Thank you all very much for taking part! You're all rockstars! —Persephone van der Waard P.S., To learn more about me, refer to my About the Author page.
