Book Description
We have all heard stories of web cam models making hundreds of thousands of dollars, but what are opportunities are there for technically minded guys (and girls) who would prefer to be managers than performers? Running a professional studio requires a great deal of expertise but is ideally suited to somebody with a background in computing. No matter whether you are an acknowledged Stack Overflow expert or an anonymous coward that lurks among the Slashdot trolls, becoming a web cam studio owner is a great way to become your own boss. This book is a how-to guide on getting started before your current job is outsourced to Bangalore or replaced completely by artificial intelligence algorithms. From selecting a location to recruiting models, this book will guide you through the process of setting up a fully functioning studio anywhere in the world. It explains all the equipment that you will need to get started as well as how to train your models and get the very best out of each one. There is a full chapter on the increasingly complex areas of model marketing and branding, as well as a very detailed look at the vast potential of off-line profits, ranging from custom videos and personalised picture sets to fetish exotica, such 'burusera' underwear sales and intimately flavoured pussy pops. The demand for model related products will certainly make your eyes pop. It also takes an indepth look at subjects such as teledildonics and virtual reality. This book is unique in that it even anticipates the death of the camgirl, explaining how they are quickly being replaced by AI-powered, digital chatbots. The author uses his own wide ranging experience and unique perspective to reveal one of the most profitable new industries of the new millennium.

Sex and Deviance
Author: Guillaume Faye
Publisher: Arktos
ISBN: 1910524190
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Sex and Deviance is at once a raging critique of the values underpinning contemporary Western societies and a down-to-earth, pragmatic vision of the future. Guillaume Faye is meticulous in his analysis of the points at which Western societies have deviated from their golden mean, thus having triggered the tidal wave of social ills that they are facing and can expect to face. Faye identifies at the centre of this vortex the matter of sex and sexuality, and with this proffers an answer to the perennial question: What is the glue that holds societies together? Faye's penetrating assault on the specious thinking of ideologues is certain to rattle the convictions of those from across the spectrum. Much more than just a socio-political exposition, this book is an invitation to shed old ways of thinking and to begin new, hard-headed discussion over the most pertinent issues of this century.

Porn Work
Author: Heather Berg
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469661934
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
Every porn scene is a record of people at work. But on-camera labor is only the beginning of the story. Porn Work takes readers behind the scenes to explore what porn performers think of their work and how they intervene to hack it. Blending extensive fieldwork with feminist and antiwork theorizing, Porn Work details entrepreneurial labor on the boundaries between pleasure and tedium. Rejecting any notion that sex work is an aberration from straight work, it reveals porn workers' creative strategies as prophetic of a working landscape in crisis. In the end, it looks to what porn has to tell us about what’s wrong with work, and what it might look like to build something better.

Reframing Prostitution
Author: N. Persak
Publisher: Maklu
ISBN: 9046606732
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Prostitution has always fascinated the public and bewildered policy makers. Reframing Prostitution explores several aspects of this multidimensional phenomenon, examining different ways in which prostitution is and was being practised in different places and different times, best practices in the regulation of prostitution as well as wider social and psychological issues, such as the construction of prostitution as incivility or of prostitutes as a socially problematic group or as victimised individuals. The book also addresses normative questions with respect to policy making, unmasking the purposes behind certain societal reactions towards prostitution as well as proposing innovative solutions that could reconcile societal fears of exploitation and abuse while meeting the rights and needs of individuals voluntarily involved in prostitution. With contributions across social science disciplines, this international collection presents a valuable discussion on the importance of empirical studies in various segments of prostitution, highlights social contexts around it and challenges regulatory responses that frame our thinking about prostitution, promoting fresh debate about future policy directions in this area.

Human Trafficking, Human Misery
Author: Alexis A. Aronowitz
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1567207553
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Virtually all countries in the world are affected by the scourge of human trafficking, either as a source, transit, or destination country, or combination thereof. While countries have long focused on international trafficking, internal movement and exploitation within countries may be even more prevalent than trans-border trafficking. Patterns of trafficking vary across countries and regions and are in a constant state of flux. Countries have long focused on trafficking solely for the purpose of sexual exploitation, yet exploitation in agriculture, construction, fishing, manufacturing, and the domestic and food service industries are prevalent in many countries. Here, Aronowitz takes a global perspective in examining the nefarious underworld of human trafficking, revealing the nature and extent of the harm caused by this hideous criminal practice.

Taking a victims-oriented approach, this book examines the criminals and criminal organizations that traffic and exploit their victims. The author also focuses on the different groups of victims as well as the various forms of and markets for trafficking, many of which have been overlooked due to an emphasis on sex trafficking. She also explores less frequently discussed forms of trafficking - in organs, child soldiers, mail-order brides, and adoption, as well as the use of Internet in trafficking. Drawing on her own field experiences in various parts of the world, the author offers real-life context throughout the book through descriptions of a number of cases with which she was involved or learned about in her travels. Together with insightful analysis, these stories uncover the true nature of human trafficking and illustrate the extent of its reach and harm.

Temporarily Yours
Author: Elizabeth Bernstein
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226044629
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Generations of social thinkers have assumed that access to legitimate paid employment and a decline in the ‘double standard’ would eliminate the reasons behind women’s participation in prostitution. Yet in both the developing world and in postindustrial cities of the West, sexual commerce has continued to flourish, diversifying along technological, spatial, and social lines. In this deeply engaging and theoretically provocative study, Elizabeth Bernstein examines the social features that undergird the expansion and diversification of commercialized sex, demonstrating the ways that postindustrial economic and cultural formations have spawned rapid and unforeseen changes in the forms, meanings, and spatial organization of sexual labor. Drawing upon dynamic and innovative research with sex workers, their clients, and state actors, Bernstein argues that in cities such as San Francisco, Stockholm, and Amstersdam, the nature of what is purchased in commercial sexual encounters is also new. Rather than the expedient exchange of cash for sexual relations, what sex workers are increasingly paid to offer their clients is an erotic experience premised upon the performance of authentic interpersonal connection. As such, contemporary sex markets are emblematic of a cultural moment in which the boundaries between intimacy and commerce—and between public life and private—have been radically redrawn. Not simply a compelling exploration of the changing landscape of sex-work, Temporarily Yours ultimately lays bare the intimate intersections of political economy, desire, and culture.
