A growing body of empirical research has explored sex work and those involved in it. However, these investigations often flatten the diversity of lived experiences by overlooking the distinctions related to both the diverse practices and varied profiles of individuals engaged in the industry. The experiences of women who voluntarily and independently enter into sex work remain particularly underexplored. Often operating on the fringes of institutionalized and more visible forms of sex work, these women remain largely unknown and underrepresented in academic literature. As such, this study examines the impact of marginalization on the trajectories of independent sex workers. Employing a qualitative methodology, thirteen participants shared their experiences within the industry, offering insight into the risks of victimization they are faced with, as well as the protective strategies they adopt. Analyzing their narratives reveals the many forms of discrimination and violence they encounter, the self-protection mechanisms they develop, and the psychological and social consequences of persistent stigmatization. By deepening our understanding of the risks and coping strategies associated with their profession, this research offers essential perspectives on the unique challenges faced by independent sex workers in contexts characterized by marginalization.

Discussions surrounding sexual assault and consent have socially increased in the past years. This research has looked at the place given to consent in the Ontario health and physical education curriculum in elementary schools to better understand the type of consent being taught. A frequency analysis, combined with a critical discourse analysis, reveal that although the concept of consent is present, it is rarely defined and even less explained. Moreover, the discourse surrounding the notion of consent focuses on sexual risks. Based on these considerations, we explore the potential of anti-oppressive pedagogies in a process of gradual learning of global consent.

Quebec feminist theories are silent when it comes to sexuality as perceived in law and its impact on women. In addition, any future examination of this matter will require the importing of a theory on sexuality to form the basis of any critique. Michel Foucault's theory on sexuality as set forth in Histoire de la sexualité may seem appropriate for such purposes. But his treatise conceals in an anarchistic way an arbitrary approach to history and a patriarchal view of women's sexuality. Foucault's study investigates the past in a dogmatic way, namely via a contemporary distortion of the historic and documentary reality of the ages he studies : the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and Antiquity. Furthermore, owing to his theory regarding power, Foucault does not see and identify the social control over women's sexuality throughout Antiquity as a dominator-dominated relationship. As the Ancients before him, he excludes women from his research on sexuality, except regarding sexuality in marriage. He endorses misogynous prejudices as though they were normal practices and thereby perpetuates the male-dominating view of women. Consequently, it is preferable to avoid resorting to such a theory as the basis of a feminist critique of sexuality as perceived in law.
