Feminismos desde las esquinas

Within the binomial prostitution-feminism it is quite common to resort to its metaphorical dimension as a space for practices, experiences or militancies, being the metaphors that delimit the end of one space and the beginning of the next. Thus, prostitution has tried to insert itself within feminism and when it has succeeded there has been an apparently irreconcilable rupture. If the women's body is the last frontier of capitalism, the brothel is the last frontier of feminism. Through this allegory, we can observe how prostitution is being configured as the eternal space to "conquer" within feminisms and how, at the same time, it has been relegated to the margins and the periphery of a movement that fights for visibility. of the largest set of possible pluralities. Feminisms from the corners, aims to represent all the metaphorical load that a corner can hold, in the sense of representing the outside of the place where two sides of a thing converge. Two sides, feminism and prostitution, that are in the emergence of the movement in defense of the rights of sex workers. A movement that, from the corners, demands participation in the space of feminisms, which aspire to be increasingly plural and intersectional. The question that is being resolved today in the public space is whether it takes place and whether it has it in the terms that the movement claims. Hence, the questions arise: are feminism and prostitution spaces with the capacity to cross and meet? Is the confrontation between the two phenomena new in public space? Elena Martínez immerses us in the debate from her own experience with women who practice prostitution and the policies that affect them.
