Abstract

AbstractThis article will critically explore differing representations of sex work and motherhood linked to competing ideological perspectives on sex work from the perspective that frames it as the definitive transgression of gendered norms, to that which calls out the lack of necessary support and protections for sex workers. Central to this will be the foregrounding of evidence from sex workers' own management of subjective identities and their narratives of working and mothering, which resist stigma and shame.
