Hello fellow little ones, I wrote a blog post looking at how bad psychophysical staircase procedures that are geared towards determining PSEs (e.g., PEST) are if you wanna estimate JNDs. TLDR: individual estimates are noisy (obvs) but probably not biased https://t.co/GRjbmgdXZT

False. Sex trafficking happens when vulnerability is exploited by traffickers. The same way rape happens when vulnerability is exploited by rapists. And I was going to write a whole thread on why this is an embarrassing take/platform, and how it’s a way to dodge systemic problems

Sex buyers are the root cause of sex trafficking. They create the demand that motivates traffickers to bring people into the sex trade in the first place. If no men were willing to pay for sexual access to people's bodies, traffickers would have no reason to do what they do.
