This collection of narrative essays by sex worker writers presents a crystal-clear rejoinder: there's never been a better time to fight for justice. Responding to the #MeToo movement that began in 2017, sex workers from across the industry--hookers and prostitutes, strippers and dancers, porn stars, cam girls, and dommes and subs alike--complicate narratives of sexual harassment and violence, and expand conversations previously limited to normative workplaces.

Writing across topics such as homelessness, motherhood, and toxic masculinity, How to Build a Hookers Army gives voice to the fight for agency, respect, and accountability across sex industries. In pieces by Melissa Gira Grant, Audacia Ray, Arabelle Raphael, April Flores, Lorelai Lee, and more, these stories explore sex work as work, and sex workers as laboring subjects in need of rights--not rescue.
