On the heels of the Bedford judgment and the subsequent modifications to the Criminal Code, this paper discusses the criminalization of prostitution-related offences in Canada. More specifically, it analyzes the various theories mustered to justify criminalization of various prostitution-related offences: legal moralism, harm principle, as well as the values expressed in the Charter and the principle of living together. These theories all have their limits and can hardly justify criminalizing prostitution.

The author examines the concept of the utopian body in L'enfant dans le miroir (2011) and Putain (2001) by Nelly Arcan. The utopian Arcanian body manifests itself through its desire for timelessness, that is to say, it aspires to be outside the passage of time so as to avoid all traces of aging. The heteropatriarchal vision that tints this conception of the ideal body generates a lacunar relationship between the narrators and their bodies: the narrators pursue an obsessive quest to respond to the imperatives of beauty, at any cost. Through a discursive analysis, the author examines the various forms of domination that inform the narrator's perceptions and treatment of their own bodies in L'enfant dans le miroir and Putain.
