not accusing Joel here of anything untoward but "some kids are built like 27 year olds" is a line that would really test you in a game of "Epstein emails or woke sports writer?"

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes It is very clear that you think some forms of sexual violence simply don't count as such.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes It is very clear that you think some forms of sexual violence 'don't count'.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes You don't 'support' prostitution, but you think the women (and children and men) trapped in it are not deserving of the same protections as anyone else subjected to sexual violence.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes You don't support it, but you spend hours online defending the concept of 'sex work is work'? Your behaviour here makes no sense.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes You defend it as 'choice' and 'work', how is that *not* supporting its existence?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes Do you really expect me to believe, after everything you have said here, that you do not support the existence of the sex industry?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes Now you are the one playing word games! If 'SWIW' how is rape not as trivial as 'theft of services'?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes Your callousness is showing again. It is clear you think certain kinds of coerced sex is trivial, and that some women do not deserve the same protection from sexual violence as others.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes Submitting to unwanted sex is not the same kind of thing as flipping burgers or scrubbing toilets. Our bodies, and what happens to them, matters.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes If 'SWIW' can you explain how rape is not merely 'theft of services'?

[Sex Industry Research - Replies @SexIndustryResA]

@FcCleary @SarahCeEl @SexIndustryRes Prostitution is an underclass of women forced to submit to sexual abuse to eat.

The overwhelming majority do not want to be there, but are trapped by disability, trauma, PTSD or addiction.

If your "choice" is enduring unwanted sex vs homelessness for your kids, it's rape.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes If 'SWIW' can you explain how rape is not merely 'theft of services'? When exactly does coercion stop being coercion?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes So you do understand the concepts of poverty and coercion then ... so why do you ignore them when it comes to the sex industry?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes What you are basically saying is that there is an underclass of women who don't get the same protections from sexual violence as the rest of us, and you call them 'sex workers'.

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes If a man puts a knife to my throat and I 'trade' sex for not getting my throat cut, is that rape or 'work'?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes If you believe 'SWIW' how does violently coerced sex not become merely 'theft of services'?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@FcCleary @SexIndustryResA @SexIndustryRes Lots of people on the left *do* say all work under capitalism is violence, so why make an extra special fuss about the coerced sex in prostitution (my paraphrasing)?

[Sarahcl @SarahCeEl]

@SexIndustryResA @FcCleary @SexIndustryRes So any boss could ask any employee for sexual favours, because it's just 'work'!
