Recenzii
“Yielding rigorous findings from a reasoned and seasoned approach to investigating female self-empowerment within this often misunderstood population, Sex Work and Female Self-Empowerment is a significant new contribution to the literature of sexology that is destined to shake up myths and shine light on truths about indoor sex work. It provides an in-depth and sensitive understanding of historical perspectives and the lived experiences of sex workers.”—Patti Britton, PhD, MPH, is the co-founder of SexCoachU.com, AASECT past-president, and adjunct faculty at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, Saybrook Institute, and academic dean at the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality.
“The natural drive of sexual expression has infinite layers of complexity which include cultural and societal influences. In this book, Dr. Stephanie Hunter Jones takes an unflinching look at ‘the world’s oldest profession.’ Her research and insights are compelling. Conventional ideas are challenged in favor of a better, healthier understanding of women in the field of sex work. This book is an important contribution to an important subject!”—Howard Asher, PsyD, is the clinical director for multiple treatment facilities for substance addiction and trauma disorders.

“Dr. Hunter Jones’s book has so much in common with Xaviera Hollander’s The Happy Hooker. Both women feel that what they have done with their lives is both natural and guilt free. This is a must-read book. Xaviera represented the 70s and Stephanie talks about today.”—Dr. Robert Dunlap, is the co-foudner of SexCoachU.com, academic dean at the Institute for The Advanced Study of Human Sexuality, and a board-certified clinical sexologist (ACS). He is the filmmaker of the documentary Xaviera Hollander: The Happy Hooker.

Be prepared to throw away preconceived ideas as to who these women are and how they live and work. Dr. Hunter Jones opens our eyes to an old game with new rules. She introduces us to a world where adults are allowed to be consensually touched, soothed, adored, and admired by a trained professional. Well done!!”—Gwen Lotery, MA, MFT, has a private psychotherapy practice in Santa Monica, CA, where she specializes in individual and couples sex and marital therapy.
