Welcome to the TLC Trust
Welcome to what has been described as one of the most exciting developments in recent social history. TLC means, yes, Tender Loving Care, and that is what the TLC Trust is all about: helping professional sex workers and other service providers cater to the needs of the sexually dispossessed.
(Keen to get involved? Just go to the Profiles section of the site.)
Two stigmatized groups provide each other with triumph: sexually-deprived disabled people get laid, and sex workers gain a renewed pride in their work.
Marginalized by the government, by the Home Office, and by feminists and religious fundamentalists, sex workers not only bring joy into the world, but also rescue disabled people from personal anguish, sexual purgatory, and touch deprivation.
We are currently campaigning for the continuing legality of the buying of sex. A C Grayling wrote about our campaign, “I thought your submission to the Home Office was brilliant and very moving: it’s inconceivable that it won’t have a great impact.”
If the Home Office gets its way to ban the purchase of sex, disabled people would be the first and most badly affected. Other clients will continue to visit sex workers but, if you are blind, you don't know if you are being followed by a cop; if you need to be pushed in your wheelchair by a PA, taking part in illegal acts would be breaking your contract with them. Many disabled people find it virtually impossible to be "naughty". Fingers crossed, this crazy legislation will never materialize.
After all, if the Home Office is concerned about protecting vulnerable people, they should consider the number of vulnerable disabled people (disabled people make 10% of our population of which, say 5% need a sex worker) compared with the 300 trafficked women in this country.
In the meantime, all sex workers featured on the TLC site have signed to testify that they are working of their own free will, and are not trafficked.
We hope you enjoy the TLC site and that it works for you.
