I bought this a while ago because I knew I'd love it, but I'm so bad at reading the stuff I own. Those shiny library hardcovers just call my name (also their due dates are constantly breathing down the back of my neck). But I finally read it, and I do love it!
Both Charlotte Shane and merritt k are so smart, so articulate, and also so empathetic and willing to be raw and honest. The conclusions they come to -- about feminism, sex work, bodies, relationships -- are full of nuance and so flexible and open to change. They seem to delight in the moments that they disagree almost as much as the moments they agree. It's lovely to watch, and I'd love to read 200 more pages of their conversations. I also own Prostitute Laundry and N.B., and I'm extra excited to read both now!

Charlotte Shane y merritt k chatean sobre cuerpos, relaciones y trabajo (sexual). Dos amigas desde perspectivas comunes y a la vez muy diferentes –cis y trans, hetero y queer, monógama y no monógama– charlando con infinita honestidad y cariño.

A sixty-odd-page chapbook consisting of three long conversations, about 'Body', 'Work' and 'Relationships'. Candid, explicit and unflinching, kopas and Shane have a great and lively chemistry, and offer deep insight into topics such as sex work, transgender bodies, polyamory and survival. Engrossing and personal, I found myself nodding along throughout, even as a cis guy.

A very approachable format for sharing personal perspectives. Put some things into words that I’d never thought about or examined too closely.
