Foreword by Selena the Stripper
This collection of
narrative essays by sex workers presents a crystal-clear rejoinder:
there’s never been a better time to fight for justice. Responding
to the resurgence of the #MeToo movement in 2017, sex workers from
across the industry—hookers and prostitutes, strippers and dancers,
porn stars, cam models, Dommes and subs alike—complicate narratives
of sexual harassment and violence, and expand conversations often
limited to normative workplaces.
Writing across
topics such as homelessness, motherhood, and toxic masculinity, We
Too: Essays on Sex Work and Survival gives voice to the fight for
agency and accountability across sex industries. With contributions
by leading voices in the movement such as Melissa Gira Grant, Ceyenne
Doroshow, Audacia Ray, femi babylon, April Flores, and Yin Q, this
anthology explores sex work as work, and sex workers as laboring
subjects in need of respect—not rescue.
