Her life could’ve turned out so different if a loving family adopted her and supported her. She’s really well spoken and wise.

It broke my heart to hear her say her father was the "first" man to punch her in the face. She should have been loved and protected by her family, not abused in everyway possible.

It would be nice for her to write a book about her life. She is so talented at story telling, talking and expressing her thoughts.

The way she talks about how no man is able to be truly monogamous really makes you realize that even though in one way she has seen all sorts of people, in another way she has only seen a very narrow slice of society.

She won me over when she said that just because she was really intelligent does not mean she cannot be a dumb bitch. God bless us all with that kind of humility.

She is telling a lot of inside information that almost nobody is willing to tell you. A very good interview here.

That is heartbreaking, this poor girl still calls the man "dad". As a father, I'm telling you he doesn't deserve being called anyone's "dad". God bless you young lady.

You know a person is really strong while recounting painful experiences with a smile on their face. Her strength inspires awe.

It's overwhelming to even imagine the pain this woman has endured. She came into this world as a highly intelligent person with all the potential to be whatever she could aspire to. She's not evil - It's others that battered her whole being. It's a miracle she's survived. I pray she finds the peace she desires and stays safe.

“Just because I have a high IQ doesn’t mean I can’t be a dumb bitch” I feel that girl

I swear, this might be the best interview that Mark has filmed. She has endured a lot of pain in her life, but I really appreciate how candid she is about her life and is in relatively good spirits

She is very articulate, intelligent, open minded, strong, and she seems like a lovable and chill person just to be around.

I think this one’s my favourite interview so far. She’s so honest, witty and unapologetic. It’s heartbreaking to know that our destinies are heavily dependent on the family we were raised in. She was dealt a bad hand, but I’m glad that she found her own ways to live. I wish her all the best.

I had basically the same childhood as this woman. I am her daughter's age... One of my older brothers sexually abused me when I was a kid, and when my family found out, everything went to hell. I was 9 years old when I burst into tears in front of my best friend and admitted to her what my brother was doing. She told our school counselor. The next day a police officer came to the school and asked me some questions, and when I went home my life changed... I will never forget the way my mom screamed at me when I came home, it sounded like a dying animal. Both of my parents didn't believe me even though my brother admitted to what he'd done- what he had been doing to me since I was 6. My parents couldn't accept the truth and would beat me and scream that I was lying, that I was asking for it, that I had seduced him. It was awful. I started dating in my mid-teens to escape my home life. I just wanted to be loved. When you're a kid, all you want and all you need is to feel loved and safe and cared for, and at the time I didn't feel like anybody did. I ended up experiencing intimate partner violence multiple times in my mid teens to early adulthood because I was used to that sort of treatment. Being sexually and physically abused was what felt normal to me and I think I internalized the way I was treated when I was a kid. I self medicated with drugs and became dependent on them- they numbed the physical and mental pain. I couldn't imagine myself living past 18 years old. I was on a dark path with no resources to get out of my situation. When you're a kid in an abusive household, you have no way out: you are trapped with no money and no power to leave. Even when you're an adult and you have money and more control over your situation, you've internalized the idea that you're trapped and cannot leave. I feel incredibly blessed and lucky that I was able to get out of it, and it wasn't because of anything within my control-- it was because I met a caring teacher at my high school who helped me get out of my situation. She found out I didn't have money for food so she started to bring me snacks during class. She gave me a ride when she saw me walking on the side of the road after my parents kicked me out. She healed burns on my leg after my boyfriend burned me with hookah coals. It took me a long time to tell her what was going on but I eventually did. I begged her to not report anything because my life had gotten so much worse after the last time the school got involved with my home life. She agreed on three conditions: that I stay in school, that I start going to rehab, and that I live with her. I agreed and I stuck to it. None of my other teachers or any adult gave a shit about me but this teacher... She saved my life. There is no doubt in my mind that I'd be dead or in a horrible situation without the sacrifices and help she gave me, because there was no way I could have gotten out of that horrible situation by myself. People are always saying "why don't you just leave" to survivors without understanding that its extremely difficult, nearly impossible to leave an abusive situation when its in the home. You don't have the financial, social, or mental capital to get out of there and carpe diem.

She hurts more than she lets on. It’s apparent when she speaks about her daughter..

I'm a Korean adoptee as well, I can tell you, there are more cases like this out there. More than just a handful, where we fall into the wrong families... It sucks. Most of us were supposed to land in good families. I have had heart to heart discussions with other adoptees as well, some being my friends, we all agree, we have a psychological and/or mental health disorders. I know me personally, I have been struggling with my social identity, I never fit in with my white friends and my Asian friends growing up. I never fit in anywhere. I was harassed and bullied everyday of my life from Kindergarten through about 8th grade. I would just isolate myself and try and surround myself with good people. I have a life coach and therapist, life is going good, but I will disclose, I'm a suicide survivor through all of this. Again, I just still will always have that feeling, "I don't belong here and I don't belong anywhere." Just know, you are not alone and thanks for sharing your story, there needs to be more of us opening up about this.

Love this interview. I'm a Korean adoptee at 6 months w white parents in Colorado, but totally opposite childhood, so it's heartbreaking to hear your story Genevieve. "Maybe I was pretty, but I didn't know that...." Love this quote...totally embodies what it's like to be Asian in a white society. Love the way you carry yourself, such a great storyteller. Wishing you the best.

This woman is so, so interesting. Her insights on the sex industry are incredibly eye-opening, and she does an amazing job at articulating what the world of sex work is like. She's definitely a natural-born storyteller.

I would give anything to have a woman like her. She deserves so much love, care, protection and acknowledgement. Even though she knows what she wants to be in life, she still never received the type of love that every human being needs. She's so incredibly intellectual and articulates her emotions in such a gripping manner. I truly believe she was meant for something better in life.

God.... Listening to her talk through the grades she skipped, she is clearly very intelligent. I skipped first grade, as did my son, so I know that schools don't do that lightly, not at all. This is terribly sad. She could have been been anything at all. I hope she is able to turn her life around.

When she said, before I really even knew what sex work was, I knew I was destined for it. - That hit me hard. I kinda always had that same feeling as well and also a lot of trauma in childhood..... I struggled with leaving sex work and getting off heroin for 20 years. I've got almost 2 years sober from both now and finally living life. Prayers tough girl. You matter.

she could be an amazing book author, a stand up comedian, a teacher, or basically anyone i feel like. this kind of charismatic and intelligent person is so rare

What a beautifully well-spoken person. Incredibly raw, honest, and insightful. Wishing you all the best and good people in your life

“To know that your life has no value…” that’s just heartbreaking to hear and is so unfair. She’s an amazing woman and I hope she stays (gets?) happy and safe. ❤️

She gives out that very warm vibe. It is sad how she ended at where she is. Had she been given a good home, she could pass for really amazing profession. She tells a story really well. The choice of words and the honesty. It is heartbreaking that she didn’t get saved from that family early early in the game.

She could just as easily KILL in standup comedy. So spry, articulate, clever and transparent. I really lover her personality.

Love this interview, from start to finish . I hope great things happen for this deserving lady .💕

It broke my heart to see her expose her body with all those scars. Such misery put on this woman. She says she does not believe that any man can be monogamous. She can only see through her own perspective, and it shows. There are plenty of men who are, can be, and will be monogamous. Men are also more sentimental than she probably realizes.

So transparent and intelligent. She needs to do a podcast with other women in her occupation. It would have potential.

I would love to see more updates on her. She’s one of my favorite people I’ve seen Mark have on here. There’s something beautiful in her confidence and openness about her life.

Honestly one of your greatest interviews, wonderful woman. Genuine, intelligent and brutally honest. So very sorry, she had a rough childhood, but she owns her life and has made her choices and is content. I am truly happy for her and wish her nothing but the best!

Great appreciation for Genevieve and the interviewer for this insight. Thank you for sharing.

I feel so bad for kids that are thrown into adoption, foster care, and orphanages. This woman deserves a second chance, an education, funding, and more for all the abuse she survived.

Damn it sucks seeing someone so intelligent ruined by physical and sexual abuse. It happens to the best of people. I can tell she's a great and genuine person that just went down a bad path. I pray and hope Genevieve gets better she deserves the best 🙏

Lady, you made me cry. My heart hurts for what you've been through (mentally & physically). ❤

This lady is far more honest than all the lawyers, politicians & bureaucrats on earth put together. How not to simply accept her as she is?

This has been my favorite SWU watch this year. Her intelligence and insight is mind blowing. It didn't feel like a sob story even as she addressed some of her traumas. I wish her the absolute best

From the moment she opened her mouth I could tell she was very intelligent. I hope she gets wherever she wants to go. She deserves better than what she got. Her parents should be ashamed of themselves.

This woman is so articulate and smart. The best interview I have seen yet.I hope she can find peace and happiness.

She has such a beautiful soul. I hope she finds love and peace with the rest of her life. Sending you all the love.

I hope she stays safe. Everyone’s life has value.

"i never felt like I fit in quite anywhere, so i felt like i was completely alone no matter who was around me"... I felt that in the depths of my core... I really feel for this person. I hope she finds peace and happiness

You just never know what someone has been through. I wish her happiness.

Very good interview. I appreciate the blunt honesty. 👍🏾This is awarding material.

How do you adopt and then abuse the child? WHERE'S THE SYSTEM THAT'S SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THESE KIDS!

As a fellow Korea adoptee, this is heart breaking. Genevieve, I'm so so sad and sorry that this was the experience that you had. You didn''t deserve this. You're clearly bright, and have many talents, but weren't given the family that was promised by this narrative that we're all told. I hope that you're safe, and have found a community and refuge at this point in your life.

Another great interview. I'm getting addicted to them. Great work!

To adopt a child just to be cruel to that kid.... adopting is like "I wanted to have someone to love, so I found you" and they then turn it into abuse.... That's one of the more fucked up things I can think of.

As an Asian woman living in Denver, it hurts to see how such a beautiful, intelligent, woman like Genevieve, who looks like she could be a relative, was tragically abused as a child. Had she been loved and treated with respect, she probably wouldn't be out on the streets. She's a survivor and has had to survive on her own. I worry about her safety and ability to provide for herself when she's older.

What extraordinary grace, composure and honesty. How Genevieve can smile past the abuse she has suffered, and the danger she faces daily, and yet remain so positive is truly mind-blowing. One tough but very beautiful person.

*I hope there would be a follow up with her* This woman is so down to earth intelligent, she has so many interesting insights and also a good story teller, plus she is so nice! I like her for her honesty and I wish her all the best. I liked this video so much I saved it.

Her insight that hit me. "You'd think your life had more value as a woman in society. But no one would care just because of what you do. Because of what you do, some think it would be okay to kill you. and not care". You'd think as humans, we are supposed to care so much about each other, but from her stand point.. a lot of people don't". :( . I'm not even vulnerable or a sex worker, I am loved, and even being loved I feel a lot of people don't value each other or themselves as much as they should. I don't want to even think the reality she lives in. I see a woman sho loves and feels deeply, bit was not around anyone healed enough to see and appreciate her great insight and love for life. I believe she truly does love life...even when it's so hard on her because of the people she is surrounded by. I prey she finds people who can see her and raise her up to her full potential spiritually. I hope she finds love and comfort and hope in her life going forward.

Extremely intelligent, self aware and honest. She deserves so much better

My heart goes out to you, to the little girl you were and the grown woman you are now. You didn't deserve that lack of love.

Man, I wish I could give Genevieve a hug. She's been through so much, but still keeps her head up and is smart as fuck. I wish her nothing but the best.

i adored this interview. genevieve is so endearing and engaging. loved listening to her story and i hope to see more from her!

Having a good childhood is a huge privilege indeed!

She is just so inherently likable. I really hope good things happen for her.

She still has a light about her despite everything. God bless and protect her.

Great portrait. This is the kind of material that can transform lives and minds. Thank you. Keep up your hard work.

So basically, she was a great, intelligent, beautiful asian girl who endured a series of horrifying circumstances because she was adopted by horrendous family consist of terrible people which make her be what she is, and do what she does. This is so heartbreaking, especially when you imagine how many other hundreds of thousands of kids around the world have to experience the same or much worse situation, with the same or much worse outcome.

It's fascinating that she speaks of her young child being killed in a drive-by, and herself getting stabbed almost to death, in a very calm and matter-of-fact way. Like it was just another day on the streets, whereas it would be life-altering and completely devastating to any of us.

After hearing that she was smart enough to get into highschool at 11, my heart sunk.Potential like thats creates some of the brightest minds we have in society. She had so much potential that was just beaten down by her abusive family. Makes me absolutely sick to my stomach.

This is one of the saddest stories I have heard. I hope for less pain for her and everyone in her situation.

PLEASE do more interviews of Genevieve. I love her spirit and honesty. She’s instantly 99% more genuine than most ppl and you can tell she’s an incredible person despite what life has thrown at her

This interview topped them all!! The kind of person you wish you knew in real life, down to earth, sensible and honest! I hope you do a followup! Loved her!

i come back to this video again and again and again. there’s something about genevieve that is so magnetic. please have her back! i want this woman to write a novel or start a podcast or something. i hope she’s well

This was one of the most painful to watch. She clearly had so much innate potential, but whatever happened to her in childhood did a real number on her.

Hands down!!! One of thee BEST, most interesting interviews it this channel. This woman spoke with absolute clarity, honesty and she taught me so much about inside information. I want to know her. This woman should travel and lecture at schools and seminars. The story about being stabbed and how she described the guy was so good and so scary at the same time. Wow! Thank you so much for this interview! Thank you Genevieve

As another transracial adoptee, this just goes to show adoption doesn't "save lives" - to tell adoptees "you should be grateful" or "your parents saved your life" is fucked up and dismissive of that adoptees lived experiences. Adoption stems from family separation, trauma, pain, displacement, loss. Most times birth mothers are forced to give up their children. Adoption isn't what people make it out to be.

This poor soul. Her story is a vivid reminder of how little control we actually have over our own lives. We're completely at the mercy of luck, good or bad.

In the right family, she would have gone to Princeton and be a white collar professional or entrepreneur. She's a strong woman. This probably the most astounding interview I've ever seen, and I only realized it after finishing it and thinking about it for a week.

Her intelligence and unapologetic honesty gives me a great respect for this woman. I wish her safety & happiness; I hate she's had to go through traumatic experiences, but it's obvious she's a very strong woman... with a genius I.Q. - excellent interview. I truly wish the best for her.

“Just because I am an intelligent person does not mean I can’t be a dumb bitch, haha.” This quote! Self awareness all around.

Life is so unfair. She's beautiful, intelligent, and she seems like a good person; she deserves so much better. We don't know what really happened in her childhood, but her adoptive parents appear to be horrible people. They caused her to choose this path in life. I wish her the best.

Her “adoptive” parents did this to her. The vast majority of adoptive parents are loving, but evil people adopt and foster children also. She is just 1 example of what happens with abusive parents, adoptive or biological. Don’t judge people who have been raised badly from childhood, you could never understand their pain or perception, unless you were raised the same way. God bless.

A psychiatric RN of 30 years I was so impressed with this woman’s intelligence and her ability to express herself. Her brutal honesty and insightfulness of her behaviors and actions expressed the reality of human nature of people we tend not to acknowledge in our lives. She truly knows herself and keeps it real but fails to realize that she has stuffed major issues very deep down..but for now it works. God Bless and keep u safe!

This was an amazing interview with Genevieve. She really seams like a beautiful soul. It's sad that she didn't have a great childhood, but she made the most of her situation. It's hard to imagine someone doing a better job than she has with the hand she was dealt. She has every reason to hold her head up high. I was so happy to see how she lit up when talking about her daughter! Genevieve is a good, and honest person. She deserves so much love, and respect. Thanks for posting this, it really made my day!

THIS IS SOOOOOO INFORMATIVE AND REAL! Moments like these make me soo fucken grateful for the accessibility KZfaq gives us

she is hurting. sometimes she doesn’t even want to admit it like when he asked if her childhood sexual abuse led her to this, she was flustered, admitted to being in denial and changed the topic. i appreciated hearing what she had to say.

This is one of my favorite ones. Please have her back again, Mark! She was hilarious, well-spoken, and so smart. She reminded me of Frenchie; both have such positive attitudes because they actually enjoy the work. Totally different perspective than the norm (and what people think of when they hear the profession).

I cant believe youtube demonitized your content with stories like hers. Its so informational. Its like a docu series so why would they do that. I hope you still bringing us this free content pays off to you in some other way because this is great stuff to put out into the world

She is so interesting and charismatic - we can all learn from her way of percieving things. Really blown away by her, she's awesome

Gabor Mate states that adult dysfunction is invariably the result of childhood trama. Even one negative experience can cause a lifetime of depression. Watching him on youtube and reading his books helped me a lot. I wish this lady the best. She is bright her life would have turned out differently if she had loving, stable, secure childhood.

Damn, this interview was so insightful. This woman is so intelligent and incredibly perceptive. You have to wonder if there's an alternative universe where she's a doctor or a lawyer.

One thing I can appreciate from her is her honesty & transparency. She doesn’t seem afraid to own her choices & her lifestyle & not gloss over what she is doing. I hate that she was abused as child, no one should have to go thru that at all. I feel for her & I hope she gains true happiness & peace. ❤

A very expressive, articulate woman, who is truthful to the point of blunt honesty.

"My dad was the *first* guy ever to closed-fist punch me in the face." I would like to see a venn diagram of the overlap between women who have been punched closed-fist in the face by a man and women whose father it was that first punched them closed-fist in the face. It's probably one circle.

She's so cool and funny. I love how care free and real she is. This is definitely my favorite interview from this channel.

She has a real deep understanding of the world around her. Her self awareness is at such a level that can provide a sound analysis. These qualities are golden to excel any hustle game. It's just so sad she keeps surrounding herself around bad people and bad places. Put her in a suit and a corporate/business world she would be a high level executive maybe a CEO!

A fabulous series of insights - From a beautiful warm spirit! Very easy to see why Gen would have loyal customers for life! :-)

This interview kinda broke me. She is in full acceptance of her gruesome reality. And checking the comments I broke even more. Ppl praising for her being self aware and not realizing she probably won't improve her situation. I wish she wasn't living a life where you can be killed over 10 bucks.

Genevieve, thank you so much for giving this interview. You are lovely. The description of your stabbing was horrific. I am so happy you survived the trauma. I'm sorry for the loss of your children and I'm so happy you have your daughter. Love to you and yours.

Love her humanity. Incredible honesty, vulnerability and insights. Thanks Genevieve.

Genevieve, thank you for sharing your story. You are an amazing story teller and seem like a lovely soul. Recovery could be bring a new beautiful life journey if you are open to embracing treatment and a 12 step program. I wish you much love and joy.

This is my favorite interview, she is somehow relatable even when recounting these unimaginable events. I’d love for her to start a podcast or something recounting her stories or things in the industry, I think it would be a hit.

This was fascinating. I love how open and frank she was. I could listen to her for hours.

This is one of the best interviews I’ve seen on this channel. Genevieve was so open and shared more about the industry than anyone I’ve seen on this channel. It would be interesting to hear more from her about different types of clients from all of the different venues: the track, strip clubs, escorting, massage parlors, and karaoke bars. I hope she will stay safe and I hope you will have her back.

props to you. hope all is well. love the vibe...

Very good interview. Thank you.
