Every porn scene is a record of people at work. But on-camera labor is only the beginning of the story. Porn Work takes listeners 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 anti-work 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.

The most thorough and accurate book on the complex power structures in the adult industry. IMHO as someone who has worked in it for almost two decades.

Already bought 3 more copies for friends.
