‘As educational as it is enlightening ... Read this’ SARA PASCOE ‘Passionately argued, meticulously researched and angry as hell ... leads the reader beyond the strip club and on to the battlefield where sex workers fight for their rights’ KATE LISTER ‘Deeply impressive ... An important book, sorely needed’ CAROL LEIGH 'An unflinching takedown of inadequate working conditions ... A must read’ JUNO MAC, co-author of Revolting Prostitutes Forget everything you think you know about strippers In this powerful book, Stacey Clare, a stripper with over a decade of experience, takes a detailed look at the sex industry – the reality of the work as well as the history of licensing and regulation, feminist themes surrounding sex work, and stigma. Bringing her personal knowledge of the industry to bear, she offers an unapologetic critique and searing indictment of exploitation, and raises the rights of sex workers to the top of the agenda. The Ethical Stripper rejects notions of victimhood, challenges stigma and shame, and unpacks decades of confusion and contradictions. It’s about the sex-work community’s fight for safety and self-determination, and it challenges you to think twice about every newspaper article, documentary and film you have seen about stripping and sex work.

After a heart wrenching childhood of family turmoil, pain and distrust in Central Miami, Keisha "Dior" Floyd invites us all into her very real world of little girls who grow up to become dancers. Not ballet, rodeo or salsa dancers, but professional strippers-women who dance for hardcore cash in late-night strip clubs. And in Keisha's international, model-haven home of Miami, Florida, the competition is always steep. So Keisha becomes Dior-a family nickname of sassiness and fast maturity-as she investigates the lifestyles of exotic entertainers with pretty faces and wicked bodies before she falls right into the fray of getting paid for fantasy and lust. But then the stripping becomes tricking, and customers become predators, and the dream of fast money becomes an addictive nightmare-all while Dior struggles to keep her leveled head above the shark waters. But enough said. Read it all for yourself. And find out how she survived to write about it.
