(Los Angeles, CA / April 27, 2021)– Siri Dahl puts a spotlight on society’s pervasive and endless vilification of sex work in a new op-ed piece for The Daily Beast, ‘‘Get a Real Job, Whore’: The Dark Reality of Sex Worker Hate’.

The veteran adult performer, who has made her living in the industry as a content creator on & off for nearly a decade, knows all too well “how pervasive that particular mentality is. Being told to get a ‘real’ job is a regular occurrence for all sex workers. The verbal denigration we face is just one facet of our culture’s fear and hatred of sex workers.

“Regardless of what you think of my job, there is one thing I want and, frankly, need you to understand: Sex workers have a massive impact on our economy… last year, for the first time in my life, I was able to donate significantly to causes I care about, such as racial justice, trans rights, sex worker rights, LGBTQIA+ youth programs, and my local stray cat rescue.

“Many sex workers use their income to support their families… many of us support our chosen families, too… this is just what sex workers do for our communities, in a culture that would rather see us dead or barely surviving.”

Dahl also notes that “it’s routine for sex workers to have trouble opening a bank account, or to have an existing bank account shut down and funds seized without warning… and, yes, we’re also far more likely to be victims of violence—sexual or otherwise. Being a sex worker in 2021 feels like I’m waking up to a new dumpster fire almost every day, and I am exhausted.

“It’s time that we stop erasing the efforts of sex workers simply because the word ‘sex’ is in our job description. If the impact of sex workers on our communities and economy were laid bare for all to see, that impact would be so undeniable that the war on sex workers would be revealed for what it truly is: hatred masquerading as salvation.”

Siri Dahl, the artist formerly known as Siri, is a fiery redhead with a passion for adventure, powerlifting, activism and sex-positive work, much to the delight of her rabid fan base that follows every magnificent move she makes.

Siri started her adult film career in 2012, starring in over 200 scenes for studios such as Elegant Angel, Girlfriends Films, Brazzers, New Sensations, Evil Angel and Digital Sin, then retired to a “relatively safe and boring civilian life” in 2015 to clear her head and re-connect with the real world around her.

In 2018 Siri launched sex-positive podcast After Adult – now in its fourth season – with her friend and ‘civilian’ co-host Rachel – a lively, conversational gabfest that welcomes a stimulating selection of entertaining and informative guests and topics – about life in and around the porn industry.

In January 2020, Siri re-entered the adult film business and shot scenes again for her favorite studios, and has embraced creating exclusive content during the coronavirus lockdown. Re-discover Siri Dahl at her official sites SiriDahl.com, FuckDahl.com (via OnlyFans) and FanCentro.com/Siri.
