“As a feminist, I’m happy. I’m tickled pink that a woman’s gotten this far.”
For the first time in history, a woman is running on a major party platform, and Sable is very happy about it.

“You can tell by how he speaks to people that he’s probably working with only this much in his pants,” said Dahlia.
Sable is of a similar mind. “I’ve shifted over to the Hillary camp just simply because I have a problem with a sexist, egotistical, lying, hypocritical bigot.”
Successive administrations have ignored and marginalized sex workers at best, and criminalised them at worst. Will a woman in the White House change anything?
“I hope she will,” answered Sable.
“I don’t think anyone in government has ever sat down and talked with sex workers and found out why we do what we do.
“Whether they want to or not, we need to be represented”.
