44 Tilly Lawless: Stifling

from Queerstories

Tilly Lawless talks about her experiences at a massage parlour she worked at and the fling she had with another working girl there. Tilly is a queer, Sydney-based sex worker who is passionate about horses, sex worker rights and feminism. She utilises her online platform to speak about her personal experiences within the sex industry, in an attempt to shine a light on the every day stigma that sex workers come up against. Growing up in rural NSW, her writing is often a bucolic love letter to the countryside that she comes from, and also a deeply intimate insight into queer romance and relationships. You can read her writing in various publications, but it's best going straight to the source and reading it directly from her Instagram. Queerstories is an LGBTQI+ storytelling night programmed by Maeve Marsden, with regular events around Australia.

The Queerstories book is published by Hachette Australia, and can be purchased from your favourite independent bookseller or on Booktopia.
