It’s important to point out that this and many other studies are talking about the general population, not sex workers. The Nordic Model increases rape in the general population. Decriminalization decreases rape in the general population. If you support reducing violence against women, if you support women’s choice, support decriminalization and fight the Nordic Model.
What the anti-pr0stitution #lobby does not want you to know.
The study uses data from the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention.
Criminalizing prostitution leads to an increase in cases of rape, study finds via @psypost https://t.co/9Y1MICHWf4
@nordicmodelnow I have never seen a trace of evidence to suggest that you care about the women who sell sex in any real way, they are just collateral damage to you en route to garnering a sense of importance and acting out a need for control through feminist extremism. /4
Only a small percentage of OnlyFans accounts (6-8%) are associated with agents. For very high earning accounts the percentage jumps to 70-80%, who use the agents for email responses and “chat”. Those agents are more likely to annoy clients rather than presenting a trafficking issue. When trafficking exists it’s a problem, but you’re (intentionally) overstating the issue.
This is all for show. The end result of this next week will be self congratulatory photo ops by politicians, law enforcement, and anti sex work organizations. They will announce they saved dozens of “trafficked women” (consensual sex workers) and arrested a bunch of “traffickers” (regular guys caught in John stings). Then they will actually go to work:law enforcement will demand bigger budgets, politicians will make speeches to voters, and the advocacy groups will solicit donations. Meanwhile some of the trafficking “victims” will be charged with crimes, the rest released without any aid being provided and some of the “traffickers” will be charged with petty crimes.

@nordicmodelnow In a decriminalized and destigmatized environment an independent sex worker’s business management skills would be highly valued on a CV. This is just one of the many ways the Nordic Model impedes exiting from sex work for those that want to move on.
In neither place is it decriminalized in any way. Maine uses the Nordic Model which deviates sex workers (intentionally). NV has a few “legalized“ brothels, but it’s a two tier system where the vast majority of sex workers are criminalized. “Legal” creates a system that breeds trafficking.
There’s a better way
