I am glad I am 66, I realised this week that I don’t want to be around to see too much of where it all goes from here. A rising tide of bigotry on all sides, and state sponsorship of abusing minorities repackaged as compassion rising to meet it.
I have seen enough.

You are so wrong it is silly, when I was a sex worker my clients were every kind of normal you would run across anywhere else.
Common factors being that they were less likely get off on using people than most and more likely to be lacking in social confidence in some areas.
Literally no one has sex with sex workers... like that not something normal people do, it’s not normal! I mean how many men do you know frequent sex workers? Yet from the way this guy talks about it, it seems like he makes a habit of it!

My problem is that I don’t have to imagine what it is like to be a teen who can’t see a reason to go on with life because I know already.
What I can’t imagine is the inside of any mind that would defend or cover for that.
There are at least sixteen trans kids dead by their own hands through despair over NHS removal of gender-affirming care. This gets no media coverage.
J.K.Rowling complains that Keir Starmer doesn't hate trans people as much as she does. This is a top story everywhere.

No, this is dangerous. Like the buses evacuating Aleppo…they held some for 18 hours half way, some children died of dehydration. It was only a journey of 15km. But they were going to a free area, going to Russia with no comms people might never be beard from again.
⚡️Russia puts forth new requirements for humanitarian corridors.
Russia is demanding lists of all evacuating vehicles and accompanying officials and forbids any communications equipment, except for Red Cross representatives.

The UK is in a cost of living crisis that is rendering survival itself an unaffordable luxury for some already. Some will sell sex just to survive that.
You frame those same people as a commodity to be casually sacrificed to your dislike of the way that a few men behave.
I wrote this article for the Scotsman on the hidden voices of prostitution. If you read men's comments about the women they buy, you would understand how equality for women is impossible whilst prostitution exists.

No, this is false. The "Nordic model" does not provide other jobs, or better paying jobs, then sex work does. No, I do not want another job. I will never get a better paying job for the hours. EVER. The morality police are out in full force, FYI.
