I have an idea: let’s make a BINGO card for media representation of sex workers!
A BINGO card has 25 squares (including on “free square” in the center that can be adapted creatively as necessary), so help me out with your suggestions. Here’s what I’ve got so far off the top of my head.
Terminology:
- The world’s oldest profession
- High-end / high-class
- Working girls
- Virtual street corner
- Ply their trade
- Sell their bodies
Other characteristics:
- Dismissive/snarky quotation marks (e.g., “work”)
- Photo of scantily-clad woman leaning into car window
Hell, we might have to make more than one card!
Note: this post was inspired by Monica at $pread Blog.

Virtual street corner?
Are you telling me you haven’t heard virtual street corner? Oh god, it’s one of the WORST because it’s so freakin’ WRONG.
Seriously have never heard of it
As in “Craig’s List is the new virtual street corner.”
If you Google:
“virtual street corner” prostitute
Lots of results come up.
See also this post by Dacia for a good deconstruction of the stupidity.
Wow. Didn’t even think of that. I must be getting old. The internet is passing me by.
