An incisive, intimate diary of the life of a travesti sex worker in Brazil, with a foreword by Charlotte ShaneSo What If Im a Puta, originally published on author Amara Moiras popular blog of the same name, consists of forty-four crnicas that wryly portray her experiences as a trans sex worker in Brazil. In a brazen, funny, and at times heartbreaking voice, Moira explores the political and personal textures of her encounters with the men who buy sex from her, and the complex reality of her labor of a sort of love.Woven through Moiras essays are reflections on transition, safe sex, desire, whorephobia, consentin the grim context of Brazils record rates of violence against trans women. Ultimately, Moira writes to center trans sex workers in Brazils putafeminist movement, modeling a feminism that envisions inclusivity, safety, self-determination, and joy for us all.
