Silverstein, the driving force behind MyAdultAttorney.com and Adult.Law, recently spoke to VICE as part of a piece exploring the wider sex work-scape in light of Roe vs. Wade’s recent overturn. Read “‘Doubling Our Rates for Creampie Scenes:’ Sex Workers on Life After Roe” right here. VICE authors wrote that, “In the months since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and eradicated the national right to abortion, many sex workers are wrestling with the possibility that they may be unable to terminate an unwanted pregnancy.” The authors spoke to sex workers in different areas of the field, including adult performer Siri Dahl.

Attorney Corey D. Silverstein Talks Emerging Issues Post-Roe v. Wade

#myadultattorney spoke to The Daily Beast about performers' shifting sentiments and emerging legal issues in light of Roe v. Wade’s recent overturn. Cyberspace (August 8, 2022) - Corey D. Silverstein, the driving force behind MyAdultAttorney.com and Adult.Law, recently spoke to Aurora Snow and The Daily Beast about performers’ shifting sentiments and emerging legal issues in light of the recent overturn of Roe v.

According to Silverstein, performers are rethinking the scenes they may want to book in light of safety issues and what could happen in the (rare) instance of conception occurring during work-related sex performance. “This has always been a major area that all performers should be considering, and while Dobbs v.

Depending on where a performer is located, an abortion may be far more difficult to obtain,” said Silverstein. “It is a necessity for performers to become more familiar with abortion laws in all states that they interact with.” Silverstein also explains in the piece, for performers fearful that their home state could prohibit interstate travel…
