We constantly talk to people who believe sex work is wrong, our existence is shameful. We debate. We disagree. Sometimes we become angry. Is there a better way to understand them? How can they understand us? https://t.co/h8NoD7G33t has an answer!

What happened the last time you talked to someone you deeply disagreed with? You debated? You fought? You were angry. Frustrated they don't understand you. How can we talk to those on the "other" side? https://t.co/y7FTOa7LTB #conflict #resolution #hate #empathy #dialogue #debate

@indianwomenblog It was a great experience to be able to share the stories we know with you. It is these conversations that make sex workers and their issues visible, from being invisible.

[Kranti Mumbai @KrantiMumbai]

@indianwomenblog 2/n Once we change our mindset, everything else will follow. When individuals can respect sex workers, they will donate for their relief. When organisations give them dignity, they will give them employment. When the system recognizes them, they will document them.

[Kranti Mumbai @KrantiMumbai]

@indianwomenblog 1/n The biggest role we can play, from individuals to organisations and systems is to give sex workers dignity. They are women working hard like everybody else to support their families.

[Kranti Mumbai @KrantiMumbai]

@indianwomenblog Much of the education system is moving to teaching online. However, children of sex workers do not have access to and cannot afford the technology needed to study online. So this pandemic will increase dropouts. What low-fi basic tech can we use to teach? Phone calls?

[Kranti Mumbai @KrantiMumbai]

@indianwomenblog The dropout amongst children of sex workers is because of the taboo they face from peers and teachers in the schools. They are bullied for their mother's profession, that they live in the Red Light Area. So mindset change around the stigma against sex workers is necessary.

[Kranti Mumbai @KrantiMumbai]

@indianwomenblog Sex work is the oldest profession in the world. It meets a basic human need. So banning it or ending it is impractical. So legalising it so sex workers can have legal rights, healthcare, dignified income is critical.

[Kranti Mumbai @KrantiMumbai]

@indianwomenblog According to the law, it is solicitation that is the crime. The sex worker is not the criminal. If this law is imposed as it's supposed to be then sex workers can be protected legally. In addition, for them to not go back to work prematurely they need financial security+ welfare.
