Abstract
This article proposes Racimo and Le viste la cara a Dios, these brothel fictions works as quotes from our contemporary culture (Cánovas), that shows how the ruthless consumption of the women bodies is a parallel of the increase of neoliberal domination associated with the masculines mandates (Segato). The sexual work in the recent literature is represented according to new neoliberal exploitation conditions, based in the precarization (Lorey), beside different practices which strengthen the extraction of value from women bodies till their exhaustion which results in their disposability (Wright) and wasteness (Valenzuela). Brothel becomes new allegories of sexual work, the economy and relations between genders.
