Pro “sex work” orgs (who campaign for full decriminalization of the sex industry) are starting to shut down in British Columbia. Hopefully services to sexually exploited individuals can now be delivered with harm elimination as the focus/goal.

Lawmakers and the general public understand and acknowledge how toxic these commercial entities are to the community, but they don’t apply the same understanding or concern when it comes to the people (women) being exploited within them.

If a business is deemed harmful to have near residential areas, schools, childcare facilities, recreation centres, supportive housing projects, places of public assembly, etc. is it a “business” that belongs in our communities at all?. Brothels & strip clubs are anti-community.

“This is the truth that the public and our elected officials must face: The sex trade […] is violence, and the buyers are not harmless “johns” ‒ they are predators who rely on the silence of society and the shame of survivors to keep operating freely.”.

Proposed legislation would shield sex buyers and deprive California of an important tool for getting a handle on the sex trafficking industry.

“even in one of the most public & grotesque cases of sexual exploitation, our nation still lacks the political & moral courage to confront the root of the problem: the buyers. The men w/ power, prestige, & money who, by choice, fuel a marketplace of abuse”.
