Eva Oh The London Vagabond
LONDON, ENGLAND June 9, 2022 – Award-winning international dominatrix Eva Oh has won “Sex Worker of the Year” for 2022 at the 26th annual Sexual Freedom Awards.
The award was given to Eva Oh for her talks and events to promote the understanding of sexuality and sex work worldwide. She is the creator of the #teakink Podcast and Safeword Podcast. Her work, writing and views have been featured in Washington Post, WIRED, Rolling Stone, InStyle, Entrepreneur, Newsweek, VICE, i-D and DAZED.
Eva Oh said, “It is an incredible honor for me to be recognized by the Sexual Freedom Awards. Becoming and being a sex worker has taught me so much about claiming my bodily autonomy, recognizing privilege and injustice and how to understand and stick by my joy – and so to be recognized as someone not only within that but as a celebrated representative of it makes me feel ecstatic!”
The Sexual Freedom Awards promote excellence in erotic performance and sexual services and celebrates pioneers in the field of sexuality. The proceeds of the Awards ceremony are used to fund the work of the Outsiders Trust – a charity which supports disabled people in their sexual freedom and expression.
“This year they celebrated the lifetime achievement of those who started the Pride movement in the UK 50 years ago. Recognizing the work that such people have done to establish the freedom of generations after is beyond important. Celebrating sexual freedom and understanding needs more space in the world in order for us to have healthier individuals and societies,” Eva said.
After receiving the award Eva Oh has some thoughts about the unique challenges of being a sex worker today. “On one hand we are able to be more visible than ever through the medium of social media, which is great for us in order to best represent our own voices. However, with this comes a reminder as to the repression and oppression that society holds itself under – through the censorship of our voices and bodies on those platforms as well,” Eva said.
