Are sex surrogates a legitimate form of therapy or merely legalized prostitution? Helen Hunt’s role as a sex surrogate raises a pressing question, as it may not warrant a place on this list. However, many people argue that sex surrogacy is merely another form of prostitution. This list justifies its inclusion based on the balance of the debate. Regardless of the arguments, this film sheds light on the sex surrogacy profession. This movie showcases the real-life relationship between sex surrogate Cheryl Cohen-Greene and her client, the late polio sufferer Mark O’Brien. Cheryl Cohen-Greene continues to advocate for sex surrogacy. Her book, “An Intimate Life: Sex, Love, and My Journey as a Surrogate Partner,” was the title of Cohen Greene’s memoir, which was published in the year 2012.
