What do erotic labor and child rearing have in common? How do these (normally unpaid) private practices inform one another? ProMomme: A Sex Worker’s Guide to Parenting is a poetic, honest, and practical look into the experiences of parents who work in the adult industry, challenging societal impulses to separate Madonna from Whore. Through essays, poems, interviews, and art, parents and sex workers share their wisdom, creativity, humor, and grit to reveal how their dual roles as “providers” overlap in complex ways, and how each role helps inform, strengthen, and poses challenges for the other. Inspired by the aesthetic of vintage parenting magazines, ProMomme offers guidance and companionship to SWers and civilians alike, touching on topics ranging from talking to one’s children about sex and sex work, to navigating postpartum bodily changes working in an industry of commodified desirability. ProMomme uplifts these personal experiences to destigmatize doing sex work as a parent to celebrate intimate labor in all its forms.
SWOPLA (Sex Workers Outreach Project Los Angeles) is a peer support organization, run by sex workers and for sex workers with a mission to pursue human rights to bodily autonomy, racial and social justice, and mutual liberation through outreach, education, mutual aid, and political advocacy. SWOPLA's vision is to usher in the reality where all sex workers are valued and respected.
