Sex work in 2024: Is the world’s oldest profession still worth it?

Sex work is often referred to as the world’s oldest profession, and our attitudes to it are rapidly evolving.

The language around it has changed, and public figures from politicians to influencers are being more open about it than ever. The shame and stigma around the profession seems weaker now than even a few years ago.

So, what does sex work look like in Australia in 2024? In this four-part series, The Briefing dives deeper into the profession, where it’s been and where it’s going.

In our final part of the series, we speak with Nova Hawthorne, one of Australia’s most successful Only Fans creator, to get a peek behind the curtain of the online sex work industry.
