Sex work is work, complex, often challenging, yet deeply rooted in human history. For centuries, sex workers have fulfilled a vital, if unspoken, role in society…offering intimacy, connection, and relief where it’s often most needed. Without them, many relationships might not have endured, and countless individuals would’ve suffered in silence.
To criminalise sex work is to ignore its socio-cultural necessity and to endanger those who rely on it ; both workers and clients. Britain must choose progress: legal frameworks that protect, educate, and respect.
Ending stigma begins with truth !Sex work isn’t a moral failing; it’s labour. We must reject ignorance, resist harmful laws, and create space for dignity and safety.
A just society doesn’t erase sex work ,it learns to coexist with it, ethically and compassionately.
While the intention is to protect vulnerable individuals, criminalising clients and third parties will drive prostitution underground, making sex work more dangerous. By removing access to safe advertising platforms, screening tools, and regular clients, sex workers will be forced into more isolated, riskier situations, increasing their vulnerability to violence, exploitation, and trafficking — the very harms this bill seeks to prevent.
As a gay man I've heard and listened to some of the stories of how sex workers are exploited and forced into dangerous situations.The reality is that it is a profession that should be protected not targeted.
I use escorts as I’m 62 and single. To get a random hook up on an app is often a waste of time. Escorts provide you with a friendly welcoming environment. Safe. And one can live out ones fantasy’s or just have a cuddle. To ban escorts will be going back decades. It should be embraced not frowned upon.
