Yes? COOL. Then let me point you in a few directions, first off, we have interviews with sex workers done by SerpentLibertine of Red Light District Chicago at the Desiree Allience Conference…so take a gander at…
Carol Leigh (she discusses licensing and health checks, feminism and whore-phobia even!)
Yours Truly (i am sooo sexy, with my sweaty self and bandaged up burns, no?)
Then, go and read about Mariko Passion’s (blog contains brief nudity) Experiences in a legal NV Brothel, and Amanda’s as well.
You’re going to see/read some variety here, from a spiritual tantric provider to a savvy businesswoman to good ole’ mercenary me, women speaking out, WoC and white, of all shapes, sizes, ages and appearances…from various backgrounds and towns. Is it fully comprehensive? Hell, would we even all agree on a lot of things? Nah…but it’s something. Enjoy and ponder.
There’s something amazing about seeing these brilliant women telling their stories in their own voice with their own face and names attached that really brings sex worker rights issues home. It takes it from an abstract to something you do to support people that feel, in some way, like my friends.
Ohh, cool. Now I have some reading to do.
oops…watching to do
