About this book series

This series takes a broad and interdisciplinary view of the sex industry, prioritizing transnational and intersectional work and marginalized sex workers. It seeks to center underrepresented groups such as Black, Indigenous, and other people of color; transfeminine, transmasculine, and non-binary people; LGBTQIA+ sex workers; people with disabilities; and workers outside of the US and UK. Books in the series cover a wide range of sex industries including camming, full-service sex work in a range of contexts e.g. street-based, brothel work, and escorts), hostessing, phone sex, pornography, pro-dommes, stripping, sugar relationship, and other forms of individual sexual entrepreneurship online. They are attentive to lateral whorephobia which points to the privileges of certain forms of sex work over others and how sex workers practicing privileged forms of erotic labor often look down upon workers in more stigmatized sectors. This series also discusses criminal justice approaches to sex work and seeks titles that explore the complexities and wide range of sex worker experiences in the whorearchy to reflect the multiple positions, experiences, and perspectives of those within the sex work community.
