Drawing on candid interviews with women who have lived experience of the sex trade, Millett weaves together their voices with her own incisive commentary to construct a damning portrait of a society that criminalises women while protecting the structures that exploit them.\n\nWritten with the same intellectual ferocity that defined Sexual Politics, Millett's landmark work in second-wave feminism, this volume illustrates how gender, class, and law conspire to render certain women invisible and disposable. Her style is direct, urgent, and deeply humane — refusing to reduce her subjects to statistics or archetypes — and her arguments retain a startling relevance decades after their first publication. For anyone who has ever questioned who society truly protects, this is an essential and unsettling read.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210269663451,"sku":"2026200017476-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/bf3d85ea-d933-4f4c-bfa0-e93b8d0d96eb.png?v=1788268457","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200017476-secondhand-the-prostitution-papers","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
