... must wear safety glasses, take certification courses, wear steel toed boots, have your hair back when serving or preparing food, have a degree for certain professions, and all sorts of other things.
but I am not sure what point this has, other than deflecting away from male's wanting to keep their rights to exploit women intrinsic, and away from some women's support of said endeavour, who will never face prostitution, while believing they are doing something to create safety for women and alliviate their poverty and feel comfort from their "progressive stance", and all will get to congratualate themselves on a job well done. that is until what other countries who have decriminalized or legalized it have found out, happens here too. But then it will be too late for many and no real anti-poverty strategies have happened, and men will still believe they have special rights.
This is serious, whatever decision is made is going to impact WOMEN universally the most, NOT men, either way. And if someone tries to say it will impact men too, it will be more pukeable than it already is. men belittling people who show concern about this topic and its impactas upon women, says much. None of it good.
As you can see, I have pretty much decided what side I come down on now with this.
Too many men showing a vested interest in having the right to exploit women, who are in no position to do other for themselves, because of the racist and sexist society we live in. They do not have a choice most often. The men IMV, are merely advocating for status quo, or enhanced rights to abuse and exploit.
And too many personal attacks against those who have made a huge difference in the lives of 1000's of exploited and abused women, for me to take them seriously now, when they put forth their vision of how prostitution would benefit women.
Then, when people like Ghislaine, who advocates chastity until marriage comes down in support of prostitution, and thereby "others", other women, I cannot in good conscience support what they support.
