SWOP TAS shared several more of these after community suggestions, so I'm showcasing them again.

For such a simple idea, they're just delightful. ^^

If you're on Bluesky, go boost them! ;3

> Happy SWer Pride ❤️❤️

— The ALEX Project 🇬🇧

(This is what I outlined on my own post, but elaborated and better put. ^^ As usual, the ALEX Project's social media work is delightfully on point. ❤️‍🔥)

‣ Our History and Activism.

We have a long history of banding together in the face of discrimination, stigma, violence and censorship.

LGBTQIA+ sex workers like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera have always been part of queer liberation movements — fighting for bodily autonomy, safety, dignity, and queer rights.

SWer history will always be intertwined with the fight against transphobia, homophobia, misogyny, and racism- and SWers today continue to carry on the legacy of advocating for our rights and freedoms.

‣ Our Community Care.

Sex workers have long supported each other through mutual aid, advocacy, education, and chosen family.

Sex workers often care for and support each other when blood relatives, friendships, and systems fail to.

At The ALEX Project, we have regular online and in-person meetups where you can find community, get peer support, access harm reduction resources and supplies. We can also refer you to a counsellor with lived experience of SW.

‣ Our Authenticity (or ability to navigate situations where authenticity may be unsafe).

Existing outside the societal ‘norms’ and expectations takes courage.

And so does surviving in spaces where you do not always feel safe enough to be fully open and seen.

You can always reach out to us at The ALEX Project if you would like some support.

‣ Our Resilience.

Surviving and thriving in systems that often try to erase, stigmatise, or silence us is powerful.
Our strength is something to be proud of.

‣ Our Contributions to Culture.

Sex workers have shaped culture in countless ways — through art, fashion, nightlife, activism, performance, language, music and community care.

From mutual aid networks to our place in queer liberation movements. Sex workers have long been creators, trendsetters and cultural leaders.

So much of what is celebrated in mainstream culture today was built by people who survived stigma and hardship while continuing to create, connect and care for one another.
That legacy is something to be _so_ proud of.

Our work, identity, joy, survival, and community matter.

Many SWers are discriminated against, face violence, or experience isolation and loneliness related to what we do for work.

But SWer Pride is a chance to celebrate the good- not just in our community, but in ourselves as individuals.

You deserve to be celebrated, today and always.

Pride isn't just about visibility — it's about survival, resistance, community, and celebration.

This Sex Worker Pride, we are celebrating the countless things that those in our community have to feel proud of…

The ALEX Project was created by sex workers, for sex workers.
