Roux is a high-end escort[3] and she is fighting structural discrimination against sex workers. In her view, sex workers can be described as a marginalized group, who were endangered by SESTA and received no benefits from it.[4] Furthermore, she was prominently against Tumblr's decision to ban porn from their platform.[5] She has written for Vice Media and HuffPost. Her first book, Whore of New York: A Confession, was published in October 2021.
Personal life
Roux is both queer and genderqueer and uses she/her/he/him/they/them pronouns.[6]
