(1,250 posts)You're flat wrong & you don't care that you're flat wrong.
You have a preset narrative that you can't deviate from.
I offer you someone with EXPERIENCE in the trade who TELLS you what the problems are & you refuse to consider them.
OK. So be it.
Beat your drum about the increases in human trafficking with the evils of legalization.
Dismiss the actual prostitutes who can TELL you how to TRULY solve that problem.
Find yourself stuck in your ivory tower never realizing how life on the ground really is.
20 to 30 million is baby food.
It can be stopped tomorrow if the countries were really committed to it.
Stop it at the source & those millions dry up.
What I'm gonna do is read more from actual prostitutes, actual sex workers & listen to what they have to say.
That blog has been an absolute education for me & I'm humble enough to know my role & shut my mouthas The Rock sayswhile the people in the actual business teach me what's really going on.
The actual prostitute in the business tells me that decriminalizationNOT prohibitionis the key.
I'm gonna have to yield to her expertise & credentials on the matter.
You always listen to those with the hands-on practical experience in ANY matter.
Theory only takes you so far.

"and deliver us from our saviors"
We Are Here To Win
Lies, Damned Lies and Stigmatizing Sex Workers

Opposing sex workers' rights is anti-feminist
P.P.P.S.: Oops. One last one.
Why I call them "anti-sex worker" rather than "anti-porn" or "anti-prostitution," and why you should too
