Sex Work Onscreen: Old Tropes & Stigmas That Are Dying

Sex work is slowly being de-stigmatized with more nuanced on-screen depictions that show what the reality of the industry is like — and it’s about time. For too long, TV and film have depicted sex workers – like strippers or escorts – as calculating gold-diggers, damaged women who get to be saved by a benevolent man, or serve as the butt of jokes for the audience. Here’s our take on how the public is beginning to change its mind about sex work, and the positive ripple effects that could have for their industry – and for society as a whole.
