'Servant of the Community', Not Its Face

In the conversation, Sedevčič defines himself as a servant or support to the members of Dobra Družba. This self-definition is important: it emphasizes the shift from individual exposure to the service role of the organization, whose task is to reduce risks, share knowledge, and guide people in the industry.

Challenges and Traps of Adult Work

The episode touches on key challenges faced by workers and creators in the adult industry: an unregulated work environment and legal gray areas, a lack of reliable information for entering the industry, security risks and power asymmetries, and psychological pressures arising in isolated environments.

The emphasis is not on deterrence or promotion, but on a realistic assessment of risks and the need for structured solutions.

Safety as a Process, Not a Slogan

One of the central themes of the conversation is safety. Sedevčič points out that safety in the adult industry is not a one-time measure, but an ongoing process: from verified work environments and clear agreements to community support mechanisms. The Dobra Družba organization acts as a hub of knowledge and practice in this regard.

Looking Ahead: Projects and Guidelines

The podcast also touches on future projects of the organization – with the aim of improving working conditions, reducing dependence on intermediaries, and increasing transparency. These are guidelines that treat the industry as a work environment where standards and safety are a necessary condition, not an obstacle.
