it's been 50 years since that day, and the fight for sex worker rights is still going strong. We still fight for social acceptance, decriminalization and the right to work safely.

No more raids.
No more arrests.
No more stigma.
No more bad laws.

Because sex work is work.

Image a crowd of people. A woman stands towards the front holding a sign that says sex work is work.

Das! Habe noch nie verstanden, warum das so zulässig ist. Zumal das Verhältnis strukturell darauf angelegt ist, eben NICHT rein professionell zu sein. Es heißt ja nicht ohne Grund DoktorVATER 🧐

Es gibt wieder einen Beitrag im Blog #ErschöpfteWissenschaft! Hendrik Huthoff argumentiert dafür, Betreuung und Benotung bei Promotionen zu trennen - weil dies im Ausland üblich ist und ihre Zusammenlegung letztlich die Befangenheitregeln unterwandert. #IchBinHanna

Mentale Gesundheit in der Promotionsphase

Im November 2024 veröffentlichte die Arbeitsgruppe „Mentale Gesundheit in der Promotionsphase“ einen Bericht, der die psychische Belastung von Promovierenden beleuchtet. Empfohlen werden Maßnahmen …

anyone?

Ava Bucy @fangirlresearch.bsky.social · Apr 14

Recs of papers etc overlapping fan studies and sex work research? Maybe links about online censorship/privacy, reclaiming labels, not dismissing stereotypes, labour exploitation, other stuff??

Struggling to find things that actually discuss both, but reading both is making me…

agreed, and yet: if you want to reach people / not be shadow banned / not have your shit deleted or sinmply depend on visibility, YOU HAVE TO 😒

You are a grown adult. Stop writing “seggs.” Stop writing “p*netration.” Do not infantilize yourself to comply with an algorithm.

Media studies has lost a titan. Reading HARDCORE for the first time made me believe that the objects I wanted to study were worthwhile, as were the things I had to say about them.

Rest in Peace, Linda Williams 💜

collectively mourning Linda Williams here feels like the good days of twitter 🥹

almost 10 years ago, when I was a baby scholar and legendary Linda Williams was my panel chair… now an even fonder memory 🕯️

The only scholar who affected me as much as my academic advisors was Linda Williams. She rewired my brain during my PhD and made my entire career possible through her book “Hard Core.” She made the body central to film and media scholarship, a lesson I will not soon forget.

All of Linda Williams' books are incredible. I'm the millionth person to say something about "Film Bodies," but it's just one of those essays that cracks the world wide open the first time you read it. Lots of great scholars don't have one like that — Linda Williams had several. RIP.

Maggie Hennefeld @hennefem.bsky.social · Mar 13

Rest in Power Linda Williams. 💔 (1946-2025) This loss hangs heavy on my heart. Linda was a legend--inspiring feminist scholar, warm interlocutor always generous to students & newbies, and fierce/indomitable presence whose commitment made us all care more. I'm grateful to have known her!! ❤️😢

1/7 It is with deep sadness that we mourn the passing of Linda Williams, a pioneering scholar whose fearless work transformed film and media studies. Over her remarkable career, Williams challenged scholars to take seriously popular and often marginalized genres,

US porn studies founding mother #LindaWilliams passed away – her texts were the first ones I read in this field more then ten years ago and profoundly shaped my analytical approach to porn. Her pioneering work inspired mine. I‘m forever thankful. Rest in power 🖤
