      Not even remotely, sex work is still work and trying to abolish it just marginalizes people into perilous compromising positions

        Prostitution and/or seducing coomers online isn’t work. Legalising prostitution just makes it harder to save people from being trafficked.

          That is demonstrably false, legal sanction is what allows sex workers to be able to call the authorities on suspicious behavior towards them without risking their own arrest in the process.

            That’s like legalising drug dealing in case your heroin dealer scams you.

              No, it’s like legalizing drugs because addicts need medical treatment not nightstick beatings you wombat.

                I think it’s a matter of enforcement than legislation. In Northern Ireland, prostitution is generally illegal but it’s basically enforced only when the police suspect human trafficking. So they can raid a brothel, then arrest them for prostitution, get them somewhere safe, find out they were trafficked and drop the charges and get them help.

      It is based. However I don’t know if banning porn will work.
