    i’m not saying those things aren’t a problem, but they don’t really move the needle in places where sex work is considered real work

      The places where sex work is considered real work and protected by law are a very tiny minority. Most of the world criminalizes sex work which adds police and state harassment to my list.

        not a problem with the concept; that’s a problem with local law

              Yes, I’m pro legally protected consensual sex work, thanks for asking. That’s why I know in Melbourne is legal but not the rest of Australia. Like in 99% of the world where it is criminalized. I’m an advocate red actually worked with victims of sex trafficking for a long time. That’s why I draw the distinction between what we wish it would be, and what happens in reality.
