Even an atheist is affected by religion(s) and a woman that goes from porn sex worker to Islam punctuates this fact. Ironically, this is more common than most would believe, and there is no shortage of Muslim sex workers. In truth, Christian, Jewish or Muslim, faith in God is very much thriving in the sex industry. Such beliefs tend to be expressed very individualistically and often secretly. In secret because the last thing anyone employing a sex worker wants to think about is God. – Pious whores are also poor whores.

Marilou, or Aisha as she now calls herself, is self described as a classy prostitute, who occasionally becomes a porn slut. In front of the camera, she’s done close to everything and confesses to enjoying group sex, with the caveat that she prefers a multiple male gang-bang to an all lesbian orgy. She assures that the engaging in the latter is purely for the money because she “adores masculinity” and “double penetration feels just too good.” Women can chose to wear the Muslim veil, but when they go from sex worker to Islam their mentalities tend to remain that of an adult industry veteran.

Always good with saving money and never suffered with any form of addiction, she started in the adult industry almost 30 years ago when she was 19. She has done acceptably well for herself, estimating that she’s probably had sex with several thousand people. In her journey from sex worker to Islam, Aisha wrestled with guilt her first few years in the jizz biz and wanted to have a normal job, but that never seemed to work out. Eventually she just gave up trying and distanced herself from mainstream society.

Couldn’t even keep a decent boyfriend

It’s a rare man that accepts that his partner has sex with other men, and even rarer one that can handle being with a woman who’s exchanges sex for money. Often sex workers try to hide what they do for a living, and still more, find relationships easier when they expect them to be temporary. Within the porn industry, some performers find long term love among others in the biz, but seldom are such couplings without other difficulties. So, it’s no wonder that a woman can start looking towards God, and can go from sex worker to Islam, despite the strict and misogynistic reputation that it has in Western society. A belief in Yahweh/God/Allah is a tremendous source of comfort for the loneliness and emotional isolation that the sex industry can create. It’s a far better choice than drugs or alcohol, especially for anyone with the proverbial heart of gold.

People within the sex industry seldom claim to be role models and have a habit of being very honest with themselves about who and what they are. The path from sex worker to Islam is less a question of trying to redeem their sins of sexual deviance and instead is a way to validate that they are worth more than the price tag on their genitalia. But perhaps the most interesting is that because of these economically challenged times, we are witnessing the paradox of pious Muslim women selling sex and career sex workers becoming pious – True belief in the Divine seems to be a great equalizer.

It seems like the save-a-whore gang can’t resist asking sex workers if they’re victims of sex trafficking or how bad their criminal record is. Amazingly, there are many of us that were never victims of sex trafficking and we don’t have criminal records. Unfortunately, most of the time, no matter what you say to the virtue signalling brigade, there’s nothing that will convince them that you’re not covering up for someone or lying. A certain mega church has proven that with pamphlets stuck in my mailbox and a weekly prayer meetup (now) in their parking lot. Such groups don’t want to accept anything that differs from the popular narrative, more so especially when that reality differs greatly from the one that puts large sums of money in their pockets. – Sadly, there is no shortage of schemes to make a dollar on the backs of sex workers.

There are many paths that lead to the sex industry. Addictions, sexual abuse and yes, even sex trafficking but those are by no means inclusive of everyone. My path is directly attributable to a college debt and equity hiring practices. On what can only be described as a fortunate set of circumstances, I became a male stripper, first in handful of specialty events catering only to women and then later in gay strip bars because there was more work and the money was better. Interestingly, the majority of my co-workers were both heterosexuals and fathers trying to support their child/ren. My experiences show that the hardest substance consumed by most of the dancers was marijuana. In those days, the only addiction I saw was among the actual homosexuals, but it was for steroids.

People with substance addiction problems, abuse issues and financial desperation exist in every industry. Human trafficking only becomes sex trafficking because of the sexual element. However, agricultural workers are trafficked and construction workers are also trafficked. An example is how human trafficking syndicates in Dubai lure Filipinos with training programs and then ship them to jobs in Iraq when their tourist visas expire. No one however, seems to talk too much about them; because “saving-a-whore” and specifically targeting sex trafficking is far more salacious in the public’s mind. As a consequence it earns virtue signalling groups more money, while pushing its advocates higher up the political ladder.

Sex work is work.

Porn workers aren’t all that different from professional athletes. Often what happens on camera entails a lot of physical effort. Also, many of us put a huge investment in our bodies by working out and taking supplements. The point is the majority of sex workers are not victims of sex trafficking and they don’t need to be saved. What’s needed is the decriminalization of sex work, because it double victimizes those who turn to this industry because they have no other options which satisfy their particular circumstance. There is an independence that sex work affords us, a self direction of how we spend our time and energy. It pays well, and accommodates those with extreme personalities or time-consuming responsibilities. For all these reasons, this decriminalization must come with continued independence. To legalize it, then require of us some certification and registration or that we work within the confines of some government sanctioned institution, just removes the very freedoms that make the job worthwhile. We’d all be much happier if the government and NGOs just disappeared; their resources could be better used elsewhere, and maybe just maybe they might prevent some from the situation that causes this work to become an option in the first place.
