“It is on us to imagine, plan, build, and re-create; and let us do so with joy. Write, draw, chat, dance, and sing yourself into a new future. Ask yourself what you really want, weave your community close to the earth, and find out what possible futures are ready to be born from love and intent, cocreated by you and those around you. Where fear and doubt lurk, shine on them with the spotlight of your own consciousness and ask: who does it serve for me to think this way? Let us come together in a great renaissance of thought and action to build Metatopias on the ashes of our dystopic present.”
Matilda Bickers, Working It: Sex Workers on the Work of Sex

“It cannot be forgotten that the downgrading of fiction from meaningful mythos to commodified entertainment is the extended work of colonial culture.”
Matilda Bickers, Working It: Sex Workers on the Work of Sex

“While anti-sex work feminists see trading sex as the ultimate concession to patriarchy, I see it as a refusal. A refusal to accept the terms we've been given, to accept the violence of poverty, exhaustion, and overwork, to accept the limited options and future we're meant to be content with. In that refusal is an affirmation of our right to exist, of our right to survive, and the possibility of a reality without white supremacism or capitalism.”
