Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted August 16, 2014 I've noticed over the last month or so that there's been quite a few articles in the more business-oriented end of the press (places like Forbes and The Economist) arguing in favour of decriminalization on purely pragmatic grounds. I think this is a significant development: the more people realize that the only serious argument against sex work is that "it's against my personal morals", the more they'll come to understand that the proper public policy is to simply allow those who find sex work immoral to not engage in it, but not to inflict their own perception of morality on the rest of society, which may not share it. It'll take time, and it may be a bumpy ride on occasion, but the tide seems to be flowing the right way... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
