What TV is getting right — and wrong — about sex work
from Commotion with Elamin Abdelmahmoud
At the beginning of the new Canadian documentary ‘Modern Whore,’ Andrea Werhun asserts that sex workers have often been cast as victims or villains in pop culture. With so many examples of sex work on TV right now — from 'Hacks' and 'Margo's Got Money Troubles' to 'Euphoria' — the group chat takes stock of what's changed and how far we still have to go. Boarlord, Arabelle Raphael and Lux Alptraum are all insiders of the sex industry, and join Elamin to weigh in on what's shaping sex work in pop culture.
