Providing a lens to understand contemporary labor dynamics and the nature of sex work itself\, this collection captures formerly ignored aspects of the sex industry including: fatphobia and disability; transmasculine and nonbinary sex workers; racialized emotional labor in the digital sex industry; high job satisfaction among professional dominatrixes; and sex worker scholars. \nWith federal policies ostensibly aimed at combating sex trafficking–affecting all sex workers–understanding this industry is more vital than ever. Decentering Western\, white\, cisgender voices\, Sex Work Today underscores the global repercussions of these misaligned policies\, which make sex work more challenging and less safe\, and provides valuable insights for those seeking to shape policies\, and challenge prejudices.
