There’s now an answer to the problem sex workers have faced on social media: Lips, a new social network that welcomes free sexual expression. Founder Annie Brown and her team want users — sex workers, erotic artists, queer people, activists, and more — to post without fear of censorship or harassment. Mainstream social networks like Facebook and Instagram have a strict no-nudity policy, while Tumblr banned adult content in 2018 after being a beacon for sex/sexuality education and porn gifs.
“If someone’s being deplatformed, or before they’re deplatformed, or they feel like social media is a mental strain on them, that they’ll know the name Lips and that they’ll be able to come to us and have this space where they can finally be themselves without fear of trolling or bias censorship,” Lips says. The progressive social network is based around consent: users choose what content they want and don’t want to see. Trolls aren’t allowed on Lips—everyone who wants to post on Lips needs to be approved, and the application process is meant to “scare off” some of the trolls.
