Abstract: Laura Ma Agustín uncovers some of the myths around sex workers and the men engaging their services within the context of building a movement to end violence against women (VAW). She argues that totalizing all experiences of prostitution with a view to punishment and criminalization does not work and advocates a much more visionary and pluralistic approach.
