It's a pretty rubbish list right now. Please help! I've included SAAFE because if I can get a good list together, I expect people will want to reproduce it elsewhere.

I'd like to put together a list of websites that offer support to sex workers. When someone from New York comes here, we can offer some help but I'm sure there's somewhere with more relevant advice. I don't know if the same is true for say, Dubai, but it would be good to know if it is.

I want to cover as many types of sex work in as many parts of the world as possible, but I'm not looking to make a comprehensive list. There are a lot of message boards and thousands of advertising sites for UK prostitution alone, but I've only included this site because I think it's very useful for someone new to the scene, and from there they can explore the rest of the online community. If a similar site doesn't exist for a certain type of work in a particular country, then some other site that provides useful information is fine. I won't include sites that are purely for advertising or discussion between clients unless there's no site in the area that provides advice for service providers.

That said, please please give me your recommendations! It would be massively helpful if you'd set them out like the listings below, including professional and geographic focus, content and whether there are restrictions on who can access it, and language(s) used. I'll update this post when sites are suggested. Thanks in advance!
