Couldn’t agree more.

This proposed legislation is a solution in want of a problem. Instead of stripping away autonomy, efforts should be directed at creating policies that prioritise safety, informed choice, and support services that actually help sex workers rather than further marginalising them.

We should focus on supporting sex workers by providing well-researched and informed sexual health services, housing services, financial support, and mental health care. We must work to reduce poverty and offer other options so sex workers can remain safe, well, and able to meet their needs.

This is being dressed up as ‘protecting women,’ but in reality, it unilaterally removes a sex worker’s autonomy over their own body without any great consultation. If someone, of their own free and conscious choosing, engages in sex work without coercion or pressure, that decision is theirs alone.

I’d be staggered if very little, if not zero, sex workers were meaningfully involved in the formation of this position. If an adult, of their own free and conscious choosing, decides to use their body or part(s) thereof as an instrument of commerce, then it’s nothing to do with any other parties.

It won’t last forever I agree but the fact is, American companies (many of them owned by his own advisors) will benefit greatly by stifling competition and only a short duration is required to cause longer term problems for companies outside the USA.
