Abstract Brazilian sex workers are increasingly publishing about their lives and fights, raising central questions about the powers, “truths” and interests that crosscut knowledge production processes in contexts of prostitution. In this text, I discuss the manuscript, “Andando entre cabarés: conhecendo os saberes da putaria” (Clarindo; Zamboni; Martins. 2022), highlighting its valuable conceptual and theoretical contributions to this emerging field and reflecting on the peer review process. Clarindo, Zamboni e Martins’ rich ethnography instigates us to explore the complexities of the relationships between feminism, prostitution and the academy and understand that the knowledge produced in prostitution contexts is not just about prostitution: it is also about how to resist and survive in increasingly unequal and unjust times.
