This Is The
$tripped
Project
A sw'er led platform for education, redistribution, and receipts.
We exist because civilians built a gap between pole and SW, profiting off our movement while erasing us. $tripped closes that gap by teaching the history that studios ignore, redistributing resources civilians take for granted, and keeping SW’ers connected when deplatforming tries to cut us off.
Our mission is simple:
-
Education built by SW’ers → classes, workshops, and content grounded in our history, not stolen from it.
-
Redistribution that’s direct → every civilian ticket funds free or sliding scale SW’er spots, plus mutual aid when survival is on the line.
-
Receipts that are public → transparent updates on where money flows, who it supports, and why it matters.
We’re not here to convince people sex work is “cute.” We’re here to prove it’s culture, it’s strategy, and it’s survival and to make sure sex workers aren’t erased in the process.
Why I Started This
I’m Sativah, a sw'er, educator, and the founder of The $tripped Project.
I built this platform because I was tired of watching sw'er get erased from the very systems we created. Pole studios profit off our moves. Feminist spaces borrow our language. Platforms make billions from our image while censoring our reality.
This isn’t about visibility for the sake of it.
It’s about survival. It’s about building real infrastructure, education, mutual aid, and movement for the ones who never had a safety net.
Sex workers deserve access to tools, resources, and support without shame or strings attached. And when the systems failed us, we always found ways to take care of each other.
The $tripped Project is one of those ways.
But real. And here, for us, by us.

How $tripped Works
We don’t do charity. We circulate resources where they belong.

No Algorithms. No Censorship. Just Us.
We’ve been deplatformed more than once. Social media can vanish overnight but our community won’t. Join our email list to stay connected to new workshops, upcoming zines, and sponsored spots. It’s the only way to make sure you don’t miss what’s next.
