Este artículo estudia los argumentos que las dirigentes de las asociaciones de trabajo sexual femenino en Quito exponen para justificar su actividad como merecedora de garantías políticas, económicas y sociales. Este texto es resultado de la elaboración y análisis de historias de vida sobre cinco dirigentes del trabajo sexual, además de una etnografía de sus prácticas políticas y su capital social. El artículo tiene como objetivo mostrar cómo estas mujeres equiparan el trabajo sexual con cualquier otra actividad laboral, la cual diferencia las actividades económicas de la vida privada.

It intends to show that despite this contradictory relationship, sex workers have established ways to obtain benefits and negotiate the borders between the work sphere and the personal one. It thus contributes to the ever-controversial, unfinished discussion about the recognition of sex work and how people involved experience it.... view less
