Abstract
Este texto ensaya una genealogía situada de las luchas por el reconocimiento del trabajo sexual en Córdoba, Argentina, a partir de experiencias organizativas, testimonios y documentos producidos entre 2018 y 2022. Nos centramos en la Red por el Reconocimiento del Trabajo Sexual (RRTS) y en los tres encuentros nacionales que marcaron un hito en la articulación del colectivo. Nos preguntamos por qué, pese a la masificación de los feminismos y del boom #Ni Una Menos (#NUM), las demandas de lxs trabajadorxs sexuales siguen relegadas, cuando no silenciadas o criminalizadas.
El artículo examina las tensiones entre trabajo sexual y algunos feminismos, la persistencia de marcos punitivos y la particularidad del escenario cordobés como territorio de disputa, memoria y alianzas. Al mismo tiempo, interroga a los (trans)feminismos sobre su capacidad para acompañar estas luchas y ampliar sus nociones de violencia y opresión. Córdoba aparece como prisma singular para comprender cómo se activan narrativas que habilitan u obstaculizan complicidades posibles.
Lejos de fórmulas cerradas, proponemos habitar el conflicto y abandonar la tibieza como práctica política y vital, condición mínima para imaginar horizontes colectivos que reconozcan el trabajo sexual como trabajo y a lxs protagonistas como sujetxs de derechos.
This article develops a situated genealogy of the struggles for the recognition of sex work in Córdoba, Argentina, based on organizational experiences, testimonies, and documents produced between 2018 and 2022. It focuses on the Red por el Reconocimiento del Trabajo Sexual (RRTS) and the three national meetings that marked milestones in the articulation of the collective. We ask why, despite the mass expansion of feminist movements and the #Ni Una Menos (#NUM) uprising, the demands of sex workers continue to be marginalized, silenced, or criminalized. The article analyzes the tensions between sex work and certain feminist perspectives, the persistence of punitive frameworks, and the specificity of Córdoba as a site of political dispute, memory, and alliances. At the same time, it questions the ability of (trans)feminisms to engage with these struggles and to broaden their understandings of violence and oppression. Córdoba emerges as a distinctive prism for observing how particular narratives are activated at specific moments, enabling or obstructing possible complicities. Rather than providing closed answers, we propose inhabiting conflict and abandoning lukewarmness as political and vital practices, a minimal condition for imagining collective horizons that recognize sex work as work and its protagonists as full subjects of rights.
