In all seriousness, can we please just make sex work legal? Seems like it would prevent a ton of sorrow, assault, and abuse.

Making sex work legal would not halt the problem of trafficking, minors, or coerced participation.

Heck, those are what makes it so desirable to the powerful.

Given the choice between a willing 25 year old, and an unwilling 15 year old. They're gonna pick the 15 year old most of the time.

It probably depends on if the person participating in the sex trafficking is a pedophile or a serial rapist. If it's yes to either the willing and of age sex worker isn't going to be good enough for that kind of psychopath.

It seems clear consent wasn’t what they were interested in.

See Nevada USA.

Legal sex work and yet they still have sex crimes.

Sex workers aren't a safety valve. People like this can afford prostitutes, what they want is to abuse.

Shockingly, not a drag queen; again it's a rich white guy

Like, no way, the guy we all accused this of 25 years ago actually did the things he was being accused of?

Could he look any more the type? Jesus.

A friend of mine was a pilot who interviewed for the A&F private jet. Had a friend dress him in the “uniform” of untucked shirt, jeans, flip flops. Jeffries only wanted very young, attractive men on the crew. I mean why worry about flight hours or credentials, right?

But their ads seemed so wholesome.

Off brand Gary Busey fell off hard.

The store that became famous for having half-naked hot people stand outside of the entrance as mall-goers walked by was run by a sex pest?

Who could have foreseen this entirely predictable outcome?

Now I'm gonna have a giant cup of coffee and try to figure out what happened to American Apparel.

I lived in Columbus during their heyday and knew a bunch of people who worked at their HQ.
It’s so very expected.

cbusguy.bsky.social•137 days ago

There's all kindsa tea going to be spilled on this guy. But what about Les?

tylerhower.bsky.social•137 days ago

There have been stories about old Les forever. Why, exactly, was Epstein managing his money?

cbusguy.bsky.social•137 days ago

Yep, many questions. It's just interesting that now is when they bring the A&F case, have they been waiting for Les to pass on or something

I watched a Netflix documentary about this guy a while back, this news doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

in case anyone isn't sure how the wealthy and entitled would treat you in a you-have-lesser-rights scenario. How many now, caught literally selling humans - female and male - for their own sexual pleasure.
