  • “Prostitution opponents love to promote images of abused hookers and human traffickers to trump up hostility towards sex work. While it’s true ill-intentioned criminals do exist and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law, these conditions do not apply to the vast majority of sex workers. We should especially not conflate the sex industry with the abuses of human trafficking because it delegitimizes the workers and creates a moral panic that manifests itself in harmful legislation. The fact of the matter is that most sex workers enter the industry via their own consent and genuinely enjoy their work.”

  • In the UK last week, Luke King, a 21-year-old man from Nottingham, England, became the first man in Britain to be jailed for posting revenge porn. A 12-week sentence was handed down on Nov. 14, after King pleaded guilty to harassment, after posting revenge porn of his ex to WhatsApp. The woman had sent King the photo while they were dating. After the break-up, King threatened to upload the photo, which is when his ex reported him to police. Although he was warned by police that posting the image online would be a crime, King followed through with his threat in August.
