I'm Jack (he/they) and I write about sex work and transness.

My linktree, where you can find my articles, published works, and newsletter: linktr.ee/JackVParker
We're fully funded and I am so so grateful to get to make this anthology, only going bigger and better and paying more sex workers than with projects before.

If you'd like to add extra support before the end of the Kickstarter, you've got 4 hours left!

We're making the final push to get funded over the next few days and you can be part of that by backing the Kickstarter (and bullying those in your network to do the same, especially if they claim to be allies!)

Want to know what you can expect from Transactional Intercourse? A book packed with info about marginalized sex workers, from our own mouths rather than people who seek to speak over us and use our trauma or joy to promote their rhetoric.

With 4 days left, we're in the final stretch to get this funded! We've raised £11,676 so far of the £15,700 we need and it's all or nothing.

Help this project get the rest of the way there so it can be made - by pre-ordering a copy or sharing the campaign!

Yes! You can share the project with others, and also share the call for submissions of pitches if you know any trans and/or intersex sex workers who might want to write about their experiences and contribute: forms.gle/kDwRPcHq4faJ...

What can you expect to read about in Transactional Intercourse, an anthology of trans and intersex sex workers' experiences?

Here's a thread of some of the topics to be covered, and you can pre-order a copy here to help it get made: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mxj...

After a pretty traumatic delivery, I'm finally home from the hospital! Baby is here!

Carrying and delivering her as a trans guy who is very dysphoric was incredibly tough, but she is so worth every bit of pain and struggle. Here as a reminder that being trans doesn't mean you can't become a parent.

Officially now a "project we love", and we're slowly but surely getting closer to the goal! There's 25 days to make it, so please shared Transactional Intercourse with your friends and acquaintances and anyone who cares about sex workers!

I'm tired of looking for stories from trans and intersex sex workers and finding far more instances of people speaking over us than instances where we get to speak for ourselves. We're 20% of the way to an anthology seeking to combat that!

Everyone who pre-orders a copy helps Transactional Intercourse get made, whether you get an e-book or go for a higher tier with more content and extras! If you have any interest in the lives of trans and/or intersex sex workers, this book will give you insight.

Just over 24 hours in and we're off to a good start (15% funded with 29 days left)! Getting the rest of the way there is going to be a battle and having people get excited about the anthology and hype it up makes it more likely we'll make it to fully funded.

People who do not conform to society's expectations with regards to our sex and gender are either overlooked or made into hypervisible subjects of mockery and hatred, and this is compounded further when we engage in stigmatized labour like sex work. That's why projects like this matter!
October 2, 2025 at 5:17 PM
There's a diversity of experience that often goes unappreciated - intersex sex workers have their own struggles as well as those which overlap with trans workers', women and men and non-binary people each have their own perspectives, all on top of race and class and disability. Let's hear!

A highlight of the survey - so few people said they wouldn't be friends with a sex worker that the segment saying so was almost too small to see on the pie chart!

There are a number of jobs out there with the explicit aim of helping sex workers to find stable employment outside of selling sex. Sometimes they fail in this goal and actually compound our existing struggles, ultimately exploiting us for their own gain.

This survey is for people who have not done sex work themselves, to gauge both your opinions on sex work and how much you know about it!

Information collected will be used to inform the themes of published work about sex work, as well as educational materials.

I don't know how many of you have ever been through a break-in at home or forced entry into a squat/occupied space like this, but it's traumatic. It stays with you.

They gutted a place that was supposed to be for the community that we put love and time into.

We frantically tried to call for help but no-one was awake besides one other employee who ran to us from their home. I felt too sick and shocked to speak at first, and my co-worker livestreamed - it took time for me to begin challenging Marin's paid help beyond documenting it.

After we unionized to fight for the fixed-hour contracts we were promised, sick pay and fair pay for additional tasks, she announced she'd close the shop rather than meet out demands (which could easily be afforded). That's the background for why we took this action.

At 4am on July 1st, my boss broke into the bookshop that myself and my co-workers were peacefully occupying while I was asleep downstairs.

Our sole demand was that the stock be donated to us so that it could continue serving the sex worker community, as the Scarlett Letters CIC assets legally must.
