Hime Marie Weighs in On Sex Work Discrimination in NightMoves Magazine
Adult film star and feature dancer Hime Marie has been profiled in February’s NightMoves Magazine where she talks about changes in the adult performer/creator landscape and goes on record to discuss her feelings on sex work discrimination.
In Marie’s “Performer Spotlight” profile for the nightlife monthly, industry scribe and critic Moutasem Seyam a.k.a. Mutant Mo writes, “When I get to hear from sex workers regarding their experiences in the adult entertainment industry, my heart fills with intrigue and my eyes light up. Sadly, that isn’t the case for most of society as sex worker discrimination is real.
Marie tells the writer that the most annoying, insidious, and commonplace kind of discrimination she faces is “the “Captain Save-A-Ho” complex many people still have, unfortunately. “Upon speaking to me and learning that I’m a sex worker, they get a sudden sadness in their eyes and don’t seem to share the same enthusiasm as I do. I don’t expect them to, yet I also never expect to be asked, ‘Well have you thought about what you’re doing after this, hun?’ or ‘Please just be careful, sweetie.’ I know the intentions are good, but it implies that I don’t have the agency to make decisions for myself or understand how to avoid dangerous situations.”
The article also notes that Marie has recently launched a successful career in feature dance, in partnership with The Lee Network, the premier agency providing adult star feature dancers and showgirls to gentlemen’s clubs across North America. Since October 2023, she has already performed at some up the top venues in New York City and Las Vegas.
Asked to give advice to new performers and content creators entering the business, Marie who got her start as a cammer before the advent of OnlyFans replied:
“Post-pandemic and with the behemoth that is OnlyFans, the talent pool has likely quadrupled, obviously [meaning] more competition, and almost a race in a way to make your content stand out from others. With that being said . . . there’s still plenty of pie to go around, and you will find your fans that truly care for you. Stay consistent. Take inspiration from content you enjoy. Ask questions and learn from other creators… ”
