- Happy International Sex Worker Rights Day! #DecrimSexWork
- Consensual sex is not a crime. Why should it be a crime when money is exchanged? Decriminalize consensual adult sex work.
- Stop arresting grown ups for having sex with each other, whether money is exchanged or not.
- This is what some people sound like when talking about sex workers.
- Criminalization does not keep sex workers safe. Sex workers keep each other safe. The only way to ensure the inherent safety of sex workers is by decriminalizing sex work.
- Vermont has officially become the third state (after Hawaii and New York) to introduce legislation that would FULLY decriminalize sex work. Here's a great summary of SW-related bills to keep an eye on this year:
- Why do the major anti-trafficking organizations raise so much money but fail at ending trafficking?
- Rhode Island Report Recommends Full Decriminalization of Sex Work thecrimereport.org/2023/10/14/rho…

- Bill to decriminalize sex work heads to Judicial Committee
- WE DIDN’T LEGALIZE GAY SEX — WE DECRIMINALIZED IT Sodomy laws are unconstitutional. There aren't licenses for sodomy. We just don't arrest adults for a consensual activity. Decriminalizing prostitution will allow consenting adults to choose to exchange things of value for sex.
