Holy friggin crap, today I spoke with a dear friend at the echo’s of violence conference, (a men stopping violence con here in Atlanta), on sex work from the view of sex workers.

The trip was great. It was refreshing to see water that was actually blue.

one real weird thing i've noticed after speaking with hostile audiences is that sometimes the people who are loudest and most combative in their comments during the thing are the ones who you later hear repeating stuff that you or other presenters said in a Positive way. like, they just need some time to think it over or something. still, it's awful to have to take their initial response. sorry it sucked so much.

i think your analogy about sweatshops and clothing is wonderful.
