    I think this is great. Belgium is playing a pioneering role in this.

    Even if you don’t want sex work to exist, it’s important to decriminalize so that the workers can organize themselves and are protected by law, so as not to drive them underground.

      Yes exactly, same thing should be done about the drugs as well.

        On that subject. I like how they handle things in Portugal. If anyone is addicted to anything, be it alcohol or cocaine it’s most likely a mental or deeper issue. Putting people in jail because of drugs won’t solve anything. Help them. Anyway different thread I guess? :)

          yes exactly, seeing drug use not as a crime but as a problem that need attention and therapy is the correct way forward.

    Makes perfect sense if you don’t hold yourself to outdated moral views.

      Yes, totally agree. Making something so widespread illegal only makes it harder on everyone involved (no pun intended) and gives space for criminal organizations.
