Abstract

Grounded in sex worker theory, this essay explores paid sex as a confrontation with free sex. Sex worker theorists name an ambivalent relationship to radical feminist thought, finding theoretical affinities in radical feminism's critiques of unpaid heterosexuality while also disidentifying with its whorephobia, whiteness, gender essentialism, and narratives of false conscious. In an invitation for a radical feminism that commits to radical politics, they frame unpaid heterosexuality as a site of exploitation and romance as a bad deal. They articulate a critique of free sex with cis men, but one that is rigorously attentive both to questions of subjectivity and to the inadequacy of gender as a coherent analytic.

免费的性

本文以性工作者理论为基础，探讨有偿性行为与自由性行为的对立。性工作者理论家将其与激进女权主义思想命名为一种矛盾的关系，在激进女权主义对无报酬异性恋的批评中找到了理论上的相似性，同时也不认同其对妓女的恐惧、白人、性别本质主义和虚假意识的叙述。在邀请一个致力于激进政治的激进女权主义时，他们将无偿的异性恋视为剥削的场所，将浪漫视为一笔糟糕的交易。他们清晰地表达了对与顺式男性的自由性行为的批判，但这是一个严格关注主体性问题和性别作为一个连贯分析的不足之处的问题。
