Nope, that is not correct.

Dude, you are extremely confused about where I live.

Do you understand what FOSTA is? Do you actually know the final version of the legislation signed into law? You realise it is about criminalising sex trafficking, right?

Agree 100%. The constant undermining of the reality of sex trafficking is extremely upsetting to me in all of Jezebel’s coverage of this issue. It is beyond bizarre to me that they cannot even discuss at all the actual issue that this law is meant to address and why so many people who care about online sex trafficking…

And shouldn’t those who have chosen sex work avoid envoking the experiences of those who had no choice?

Actually, this is about the Netherlands and the studies (which are ongoing and are very interesting to read) are up to date and are post-legalisation in this country.

Thanks. The report about the rights of sex workers, which it is careful to limit to consensual sex work and which also states that “The policy reinforces Amnesty International’s position that forced labour, child sexual exploitation and human trafficking are abhorrent human rights abuses requiring concerted action and…

I work with (not for) Amnesty often and I work in international law, as a lawyer. What report are you referring to and in relation to which human rights and which frameworks- IHL, IHRL, ICL, domestic jurisdictions?

I have actually read and watched for that matter the testimony of survivors in regards to this legislation. I have looked up the positions of organisations made up of survivors and those that advocate specifically for survivors regarding this legislation. Look, tell the truth. You have never read any of the…

It was actually supported and led by anti-sex trafficking organisations and in the community the support is way more pro than con. Yes, some objected to (particularly earlier versions of) the law, but that is not the majority. I work in this field. Do you? Do you really know what you are talking about when you talk…

Let me help you out- I actually work in a field that deals (not exclusively) with victims of sex trafficking. You know who doesn’t get to speak for them? People who are not victims of sex trafficking. That includes consensual sex workers.

So um, you just make things up and try and put them in people’s mouths?

Prostitution is also legal where I live and, following legalisation, the following findings have been determined by studies: 1) consensual sex workers have better access to health care, can now access benefits (like pensions, etc), and are safer; 2) native born sex workers went way down and there was an increase in…

Yeah, we all know you wouldn’t dare say that nonsense to Yvonne Ambrose’s face, but good luck with your strawmen insults.

Jezebel’s repeated and total erasure of the voice of trafficking victims is disgraceful. The total ignorance displayed about the anti-sex trafficking organisations and survivors who supported and advocated for this legislation is embarrassing. The changes made in mark up are clearly beyond this site’s ability to…

100% agreed. As a white person, I think it is sad that the focus is still on the photo and not the explanation of what it is meant to highlight. I realise that it makes white people extremely uncomfortable to have to actually contemplate and address the fact that Drake is arguing that the still prevalent stereotyping…

Good. That was faster than I thought. What she tweeted about Jarrett is unconscionable. What she tweeted about George Soros is equally unconscionable. Which, relevantly, is not about Chelsea Clinton in the least. And is why Roseanne’s tweets are being referred to as racist and anti-semitic. And is not being bizarrely…

I realise that this is a very controversial thing to write, but I think that feminists and progressives should think carefully about the way in which Roe v. Wade has effectively removed the abortion debate from the democratic process and how this has resulted in the disenfranchisement of American women as voters and…

Minor quibble, but I don’t really “appreciate” that about the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church committed mass crimes against women (unwed mothers) and children, not just in terms of the horrific level of clergy child abuse, but also in terms of how babies of unwed mothers were treated, in Ireland. In my view, they…

What is scary to me is that this isn’t an off the cuff racist remark that came from just Trump himself. This is clearly a part of a drafted speech, meaning it was prepared this way intentionally by White House staff. Trump has said many racist things- I would say his remarks about the federal judge, Mrs. Khan, and…
