Bound, not Gagged

BoundNotGagged.com is a collective effort of sex workers and advocacy groups supporting sex workers in their efforts to speak out about media's treatment of sex work. It began as a media critique of the Deborah Jeane Palfrey scandal in Washington DC.

The blog includes personal stories, commentary and analysis from sex workers around the country and press/media resources. This project is a collaboration of the Desiree Alliance and allied organizations. More information about who we are is available at the blog.

We encourage you to get involved! You can email your stories anonymously to BoundNotGagged@gmail.com with the word "Post" in the subject, or you can register at the site and post for yourself by sending an email to the same address.
