I was schooled by Andrea Dworkin on the impact of pornography on women: violence and exploitation.
When I talked about this in class, two students had a different take on things. We listened to each other and eventually these two students approached me about doing their master's graduate project about students in higher education involved in sex work.
It is an elegant qualitative study that explores many intersecting identities. My students presented in New York and have been interviewed for a couple of articles. This summer, I hope that we draft a manuscript for publication.
This is what I do now. I read, think and write for a living. Lucky lady.

Sex work and higher education mix disparate identities?
Welcome to my annotated bibliography and collage of musings, article excerpts, abstracts, questions, essays, stories, lecture notes, reflections, seed thoughts and topics that capture my imagination. Social Work is an applied social science and aims to improve the opportunities & living conditions of vulnerable people. Alejandra Acuña, PhD, MSW, LCSW, PPSC
