This Was A Good Workshop

Greetings:

This is the first time I've posted on Sex In the Public Square. I learned about this site when I attended the session at Left Forum mentioned above. This was one of three sessions that had something to do with sexuality and emotional labor in the household. I'm excited to see that there is a greater willingness on the left to discuss these matters. I'm hoping to meet people online and offline who want to continue these many important threads

More intelligent talk on sex work...

Thursday night I was at a reception in honor of the launch of a new nonprofit organization called "Sex Work Awareness." Formed by the amazing folks at $pread Magazine, SWANK, and PONY it promises to make truly important contributions to sex work advocacy, research and community organizing. I think they're definitely an organization to watch!

And tomorrow I'll be on a panel at the Left Forum with one of Sex Work Awareness's founders, the seemingly indefatigable Audacia Ray. Also on the panel are some other sex worker advocates I admire deeply: Ignacio Rivera and Amber Hollibaugh also of Queers for Economic Justice and the National Gay and Lesbian Taskforce, and Antonia Levy from the Graduate Center at CUNY. Here's the panel info:
