Okay, but... You're a lawyer, right? Imagine you got an email from someone that just said, 'hey'. That'd be weird, right? Like, you're not just hanging out somewhere, and someone's just casually saying hello. Someone is contacting you as a lawyer. If they emailed you and said, "Hey. My name is Bob and I am looking for a lawyer because I may or may not have stabbed my sister," that's a useful email that's clearly not an enormous waste of your time.
"Hey," doesn't do that. And then imagine you get 500 "heys" a day. And when you respond to those "heys" they don't really go anywhere. First they ask what your rates are. You tell them it depends and list your areas of expertise. Then they say, wow, that's expensive. You must be able to afford a really nice office. You say yeah, it's great. Are you interested in hiring a lawyer? And they say they TOTALLY are interested in hiring a lawyer, but then they go on to try to make friends with you and flatter you and are clearly angling for you to waive your retainer or whatever and lawyer them for free.
And if you ignore the "hey," they just keep "heying" you for months until you block them. Then they complain.
It would never occur to anyone to treat any other professional this way.
Now, we can argue over whether sex work is work (but we won't because that seems like it'll just turn into a fruitless flamewar that will consume this thread from the inside out) and we can argue over whether social media is a sufficiently grey area that people might be genuinely confused over etiquette. But she's making clear what she thinks and that if you want to book her or otherwise ask for her assistance in something, don't lead with "hey".
Seems reasonable, I dunno.
Anyway, here's my favorite comment so far.
