The Power Struggle for Women

I've had to think about this question, and I've gone back and forth on this one. On one hand, I think it is incredibly difficult to portray women as sex workers, and making it transformative, because film crew can easily fall victim to turning a woman on film as a sex worker into an object more so than a subject.

On the other hand this could be possible. One of the criticisms I've read about Spike Lee's films is his portrayal of women. He has himself said, he finds it difficult to portray women, because he doesn't see women as other women see each other. Perhaps this sort of thing could be rectified if a female film director/writer were to take the reigns on this particular subject, and work with it instead of a man.

In addition to having a female cast and crew, it might also help to make sure the film's promotional efforts don't quite go down a path similar to Girl 6, in which it seemingly is a film about phone sex for audiences to laugh at or get their voyeuristic jollies.
