Every now and then I forget that people like this still exist:
The danger to prostitutes will continue, because the kind of men who frequent prostitutes and the kind of men who control them don’t have a lot of respect for them on the whole. Nor should they. Being a prostitute is a shameful, indecent activity, and any sex worker who demands respect as a matter of course is fooling herself. She is not respectable. Politically correct people will say she is, but she isn’t. The danger will continue, the pimps will still control the desperate girls and society as a whole will think less of itself.
That’s Barbara Kay, taking up nearly a full page in the comment section of the National Post: The end of prostitution laws as we know them.
Sometimes, all that keeps me going is the knowledge that in 30 years, most of the bigots will be dead.
