Vegas sex workers demand rights, respect
Strippers and hookers are trying to get some respect in Sin City. The so-called sex workers demonstrated yesterday on the steps of the courthouse in downtown Las Vegas. They’re calling for more legal protection and decriminalization of the world’s oldest profession.
Starchild, a 36-year-old former Army Reservist stood amid rallying sex workers in Las Vegas on Thursday and boasted of his bid for a seat on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.
“And that ballot is going to say ‘escort/exotic dancer,'” he said, beaming.
Protesting prostitutes, strippers and men and women of the night said they came to the downtown courthouse steps to try enable others like Starchild – active advocates for sex workers. The group called for more respect and stronger legal protections for legal and illegal workers in the sex industry. They complained that a series of new antihuman trafficking laws restrict their freedom and called for the decriminalization of the world’s oldest profession.

Yeah better to make sure they have their jobs and safety than to try and prevent women being abducted and forced into prostitution.
#1 – Why do you think that doing the first thing means not doing the second thing?
#2, For people dealing with this problem, that is the conclusion that has been reached. It’s why there was a huge backlash when the US tried to specify only ‘forced’ prostitution.
I will be nice and friendly with Starchild for $100 / hour or $500 for the whole night. But I will need to see the cash up front. No kissing.
