Brazilian Sex Workers Get a Voice - Blog, Clothing Line and Book


Brazilian Sex Workers Get a Voice - Blog, Clothing Line and Book

With a new blog, clothing line and book, brazillian sex workers now have a voice.  The new book, written by brazillian sex worker, has already sold 100,000 copies!

Sex workers in Brazil have found a voice. And this is a space they created for themselves, with at least two initiatives having made an impression on both the media and popular imagination. The Little Surfer Girl blog set up by 'Bruna' (née Raquel Peixoto), 21, is one. And the other is the release of a clothing label called 'Daspu' by a group of sex workers from the NGO, Davida, a sex workers' collective. Bruna's memoirs, published as a book titled, 'The Scorpion's Sweet Venom', has already sold 100,000 copies in Brazil, is being promoted abroad, and is soon to become a film. "I didn't expect so many people to take an interest in my life. I began the blog in end-2004 because every girl my age had one. I was 19 then, and wanted to share what it was to be a prostitute. I lived alone, had just one friend, and did not have a boyfriend. I needed somebody to talk to. On the night I started writing the blog, I wrote everything I wanted to say," says Peixoto. Soon, it was Brazil's most popular blog. (financialexpress-bd)
