When I was around 15 I was having a rough time at home and needed to make money and get away.
I grew up in the Jurong and hung out with older friends who would do this job where a driver would come pick up us and take us to bars in Orchard Towers.
The bars would give us a flat rate, and while we were there we would get paid whenever a guy bought us a drink.
I thought it was really fun. I always liked going out and partying. I never analyzed it as sex work even though I would hook up with people or put on a "male fantasy" persona to capitalize off my body.
I never had an open dialogue about sex work, but that was kind of my foot in the door for selling my sexuality and getting paid by clients. After that, I was a escort and then had sugar daddies in Nanyang Technological University while studying for my Accountancy degree.
Now when I think about the work that I've done and the work that I do now monetizing my body, my physicality, I really do feel strongly that we are all born into the society of sex workers.
Somebody is going to sexualize you whether you like it or not, but whether you want to choose to make money off, that is my decision.
I've worked for money, I experimented working in a Geylang whore houses for a little bit, and I've been an escort.
I feel like I was born a sex worker.
