Creators: Loved

Every porn scene is a record of people at work. But on-camera labor is only the beginning of the story. Porn Work takes readers behind the scenes to explore what porn performers think of their work and how they intervene to hack it. Blending extensive fieldwork with feminist and antiwork theorizing, Porn Work details entrepreneurial labor on the boundaries between pleasure and tedium. Rejecting any notion that sex work is an aberration from straight work, it reveals porn workers' creative strategies as prophetic of a working landscape in crisis. In the end, it looks to what porn has to tell us about what's wrong with work, and what it might look like to build something better.

a resource in particular that I always tell people to read is porn work by heatherb which is a Marxist feminist perspective on sex work centering the voices of a wide variety of sex workers so sex workers who are also people who are disabled sex workers who are people of color so I cannot recommend this highly enough if you are looking for another resource on learning about sex work
