Annie Knight cops abuse every day – but male porn stars don’t
Australia’s “most sexually active woman” has called out double standards in the adult industry, labelling the disparity “infuriating”.
Australia’s “most sexually active woman” has called out alleged double standards in the adult industry, labelling the disparity between men and women “appalling”.
Annie Knight has become a household name after she began documenting her life as an OnlyFans creator, revealing she’s slept with 300 people in the past 12 months as well as her mammoth earnings.
However she’s also been open about the negative effects of going public with her profession after being “slut-shamed” by a stranger who outed her X-rated job to her dad.
Despite regularly copping backlash for working in the Australian sex industry, the 26-year-old said male porn stars don’t receive the same abuse.
“I’ve faced a lot of Judgement and ridicule, but interestingly enough – and it infuriates me – is the double standards between men and women with the same jobs,” the Gold Coast woman told news.com.au.
“I have male sex worker friends who tell me they have never received a negative comment in the entirety of their careers, even after receiving millions and millions of views.
“Men praise them but look down on us women even though we do the same work. It’s appalling.”
As a result of the relentless insults and “hateful” comments Ms Knight receives, she said she has become inspired to fight the “stigma surrounding hypersexual women”.
“I didn’t call myself ‘Australia’s most sexually active woman’, it was a title given to me by someone on social media, and I’m totally okay with it,” she said.
