How To Find Sex Workers In South Australia Safely
How to find a brothel, safely, in South Australia.
So, unfortunately, there is no such thing as “safe” Sex Work when you live in a state that criminalises sex work. There are so many risks for Sex Workers (SW’s) and clients alike, and they aren’t just limited to brushing up with the wrong side of the law.
Just so we are on the same page most people in the adult pleasure industry prefer the term Sex Workers, and it goes a long way to respect them and their right to work by using that term rather than “hooker” or “ prostitute”. This can, in a roundabout way, also help you have a safer experience in the fact that if you find SWers using terms like hooker or prostitute rather than Sex Worker or Escort, you’ll know they may not be as reputable as others.
Luckily there are a few things you can do to limit the risks and have a positive experience, mostly it’s about finding the right SWer for you and finding trustworthy platforms to book them on.
Firstly we would like to make it super clear, Sex Work is currently criminalised here in South Australia (February 2024). To find out more about the laws regarding sex work here in SA visit Scarlet Alliance’s website they are the experts when it comes to this. Currently, there are talks in SA parliament about decriminalising Sex Work but there is some debate around how to go about it. A topic for another time.
Now onto what you came here for. What’s the best way to find face-to-face sex workers in SA safely?
What are the risks of prostitution in South Australia?
Well apart from getting involved with the police in a way you would rather not there are a couple of things to watch out for.
Scams, aren’t super common but they exist, there are ads online for sex workers that aren’t sex workers. Sometimes the scammers will ask for money upfront and sometimes they will even wait till you are in the room with them and either blackmail you with your message history or simply just mug you. Spoiler alert they won't be the attractive person you have been messaging, more likely some bruiser or upstart scammer. This situation is super avoidable by using popular online platforms that have a good reputation and they vet their clients. Never click on sex worker ads online even if it's for what seems to be a popular platform you have heard of or know of. This is one of the best ways to get scammed! It's best to go straight to the source but we will get to that in a bit.
How to make contact with a sex worker:
Aside from the police and being scammed it's actually a fairly normal transaction. It's important that you do your research and be thorough in your questions once you approach a particular person that you are interested in. Be respectful and make sure that you are 100% honest about what you want and what you are looking for, the more honest you are the better your experience will be.
When you're vibing with your chat buddy, and the idea of a meeting pops up, it's time to discuss the logistics. Whether it's their place, your place, or a cozy hotel room, go with what feels right for both of you. Then, golden rules for rendezvous is to ensure that the financials are sorted. When financials are agreed upon, they will have a list of requests. This will usually be things like being clean and dressing well, having a shower and wearing clean clothes is usually the minimum for a meeting with an escort. Mostly they will get you to shower when you first meet this is normal so don’t be offended.
Another good sign that you have found a good sex worker is that they might perform a visual health check on you as you are getting intimate or even before. This is also very normal and nothing to get offended by, remember that this is their job, they want to make you feel safe and sexy, but not at the risk of their own health and safety!
Remember, nothing in life comes with a 100% guarantee, and the same goes for arranging time with an escort. They've got the power to hit the pause button or gracefully bow out for any reason. Just a heads up, paying the escort's fee doesn't equal an automatic consent. That is a two-way street too. If, for any reason, you decide to tap the brakes before or during, just be upfront about it. Sure, you might part ways with a deposit or booking fee, but hey, that's all part of the game. Honesty is the best policy.
Where to go:
The two main sites we have heard good things about are:
The Ivy Societe https://ivysociete.com/
And
Scarlet Blue https://scarletblue.com.au/
We've had some fantastic conversations with Sex Workers who have swung by the store, and they've given a nod to these two sites as the go-to for a safe and fair experience for both clients and Sex Workers. Just so you know, we're not pocketing any cash for singing their praises – it's just an honest tip from the pros without any strings attached.
