Legalization schemes vary widely, but they rarely serve sex workers well. The Nevada model is particularly awful. It’s about making sure that sex workers don’t mix with the general population, and it also means that sex workers have to work for big brothels. No one would accept the conditions at the brothels if they…

Okay, I’ll stop, this is my last comment, but honestly, if you tend to equate the two that makes me really question whatever research you’ve been reading, as there are HUGE and significant differences in practice and outcome. Like, Nevada versus New South Wales are two completely different systems, and they don’t fit…

I think maybe you’re not as great at being sarcastic as you think you are.

Also, literally, the Swedish government did a study and found that the vast majority of sex workers oppose the criminalization of clients. They don’t care, and they spin it as “poor little idiots are too brainwashed to know what’s best” but still. I’m not oversimplifying — I am stating facts.

Again, I do not support legalization. I support DECRIMINALIZATION. Like in New Zealand. They are different things.

Almost all sex workers prefer decrim. The only current sex workers I’ve ever known to support the Nordic model were very privileged, and not even full service. (Also, I’ve only ever encountered 3 of them, all online. And I am a person who knows a lot of sex workers in meatspace, because I’ve been doing this for 5+…

No, the Netherlands most certainly did NOT do things right. They have legalization, not decrim. That means that there are still a lot of illegal sex workers, esp since the windows are closing. And illegal sex work makes workers more vulnerable to exploitation.

That’s why sex workers want DECRIMINALIZATION, like they have in Australia and New Zealand. The situation in Europe and Nevada is precisely why we prefer decrim over legalization.

FUCK NO. The so-called “nordic model” is a piece of shit that makes things more dangerous for sex workers and trafficking victims alike. It scares off the good clients, but not the bad dates or the traffickers — those guys are gonna break the law anyway, so they don’t care. With the client pool reduced, workers are…

Nevada is the worst! http://titsandsass.com/nevadas-brothe…

If it’s illegal to work outside the windows, and there are less windows, there will be more criminalized workers.

I use NYX mineral foundation sticks to contour. I have one in the lightest color and one in the darkest. It works okay. I also use a Boots No. 7 shimmery highlighter as well that I use a little bit of on top of the other stuff.

I have owned many cats in my life, and I have never had a cat that just knocked shit over. Literally, this has never been a problem for me. Why do you all have such terrible cats?

A married couple I knew once: Janet and Michael Jackson.

They did require a bit of breaking in, but as a wide-footed human I’m used to that. They are now my favorite pair, and they seem to hold up pretty well.

I have really wide feet and I like her shoes. The wedges and flats fit me just fine.

I'm surprised you don't like NYX since they're my favorite company.

Yes, this. People complain so much, but frankly it’s not much worse than most most fashion advertising and I always really liked the unphotoshopped non-models. I think that a lot of complaints about them looking “strung out” or “really young” were because of the light makeup and less-developed modeling skills.

Hey, some senators actually agree! And I am actually shocked.

Okay, this abortion dickery is terrible, but honestly?
