Aren't we progressive! Yea, sex! We don't really care if people get sold into sex slavery, so long as they are happy with their choices! Yea feminism!" <br /><br />This sort of "feminism" is reprehensible and I can't believe the university supports it - you can put the little disclaimer up there, but the content of this blog still reflects VERY POORLY on the university itself.

Causes like "legitimizing sex work" are so fringe and extreme that even many progressives can see that they are ultimately divisive and exploitative. <br /><br />Legitimizing "sex work" is not useful for for women, men or society, and it insults and whitewashes the legitimate data that shows prostitution is harmful OVERALL. There is no magic bubble where all "sex work" occurs as a happy, mutually satisfying exchange between people, and in fact engaging in "sex work" drastically increases a person's risk of being raped or murdered.<br /><br />If you really care about "women" as you say, you should not be standing on the backs of human trafficking victims so you can get brownie points from fringe groups.
