We, the sex workers of the USA, and their supporters, demand that sex work be made LEGAL. Sex work is NOT sex trafficking. Sex workers face stigma regarding their decision to engage in sex work; in turn, this translates to public harassment, police abuses, as well as innumerable assaults going unreported due to the very real fear of discrimination and denial of their basic rights based on their choice of occupation. Decriminalization and regulation would, in fact, drastically LOWER instances of sex trafficking and transmission of disease.
We have a right not to be penalized for our chosen professions, which causes no-one harm. We have a right to ownership of our own bodies, and safety. Anything less than legalization is an infringement on our basic rights as human beings and citizens.
