Unsurprising.

"Girls told the researchers that boys boasting about what they had seen in porn led to anxiety about whether they could meet such expectations, as well as concerns about aggressive or violent sexual behaviour, such as choking."

The report found steps taken by the State to assist women, including trafficked women, in prostitution, were “insignificant”. The “overwhelming majority of the women involved in prostitution are migrant women and many are undocumented,” the report noted. https://t.co/BbQmLiMBYt

"Written by child and family law expert, Dr Geoffrey Shannon, the report recommends that the right to protection, accommodation, legal advocacy, exit routes from prostitution and support for victims must be protected and enshrined in Irish policy."

Report recommends the need to continue to work with those enacting and implementing the legislation to ensure the exploiters are the target of criminal sanctions and those exploited are protected. #SexualOffencesReview

Report advocates for the rights to protection, accommodation, legal advocacy, exits routes & support for victims. Supports & exit routes for those in prostitution must be enshrined into policy in Ireland & resources increased. https://t.co/m6lMdqv3ge

Why was this convicted man given a suspended sentence? Supposed 'good character', rugby connections & career ambitions cannot be excuses anymore!

[Ruhama @RuhamaAgency]

V glad to see that this assault was taken seriously & this man convicted for his vicious assault on a trans woman in the Irish sex trade!

The law has switched the focus to protect those in the sex trade & hold abusers and exploiters accountable.

Ask your candidates if they support the protection of women affected by prostitution and sex trafficking.

Ask them if they want to see convictions of pimps & traffickers.

Ask them if they believe men who pay for sexual access to vulnerable women should be deterred.
