Meaghan McLeod 179664 Report post Posted September 13, 2015 What the author is missing is that consent was not given. Even if he had paid the money, she has a right to say no. The fact that he used a gun would have been terrifying so I feel for her. Don't forget the one that was shot in Texas because he claimed she stole from him. He shot her as she was leaving. He was not charged because Texas law states you can kill someone who steals from you. So I'm sure this was on her mind as he was raping her. So disturbing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MightyPen 67414 Report post Posted September 13, 2015 I know. Sex without consent is rape, period. Nothing else about one's life changes that. There's SO MUCH that's repugnant going on here... the author's breezy dismissal of sex workers as full human beings in the forefront. Smug... judgmental... narrow-minded... prudish. I can't really find the term or combination of terms to capture how ugly I find the article. What also sickens me is the way that something like this... written by a woman no less... can go to reinforce such prejudice in the general community. I guess that's what prompted me to post it: OH MY GOD there are actually people who think like this, AND who would put it down on paper to show others, AND they likely find like-minded readers who nod approvingly, AND she might sway people who haven't stopped to think about this before to her point of view. Arrgh. So much anger. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might need to be in Texas to cleanly get away with this but the troubling thing is the vile and repugnant "attitudes" are everywhere, not just Texas. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fortunateone 156618 Report post Posted September 18, 2015 very disturbing. there have been at least a half dozen articles in various places, including that paper, all commenting about her article. Not a peep from her tho. Even organizations typically at war with sex worker advocates all agree on how offensive and disgusting this article is.
