Redacted Tonight #89- Legal Prostitution, Robot Uprising, Criminal Abortions, & More [Comedy&News]
Hi Lee, good point on prostitution. In New Zealand we decriminalised prostitution, and it has been OK. But sex workers still get treated poorly. They still have pimps, the gangs are still involved, and violence against sex workers is still a reality. Wages have fallen as well, although that just could be because we have a crazy right wing government in power. I think a lot of action needs to happen to make prostitution a safe environment. Silly question, why does no one ever mentions health and safety with sex workers?
