Don&#8217;t get it confused with the liberal economic and social policies in the Scandinavian countries. <\/p>\n<p><strong>The sexual services that are made illegal include pimping, procuring, and the operation of brothels.<\/strong> After its first enactment in 1999, both Norway and Iceland adopted a similar legislation in 2009, followed by Canada in 2014. If you\u2019ve already found the loophole in that law, you\u2019re not alone. <\/p>\n<p>Before I carry on, Bindel states that enacting the Nordic Model in all countries will no longer make women appear to be \u2018saleable objects\u2019. She mentioned that there are women and men involved in prostitution, yet she insinuates that only women are seen as saleable objects. Hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Moving back onto the subject of the Nordic Model, it doesn\u2019t make sense to prohibit the commercial consumption of sex, but not the sale of it. You will still be penalised if you own a brothel or if you\u2019re involved in prostitution, which is a part of sex work. It\u2019s exactly like what Laura Lee has tweeted on her Twitter page, the Nordic Model does not decriminalise sex workers.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"inline\">\u2018There has not been one murder of a woman in prostitution by a pimp or punter since the law was implemented in Sweden.\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Where is the evidence that backs that statement? <strong>If Bindel was able to find statistics that show that decriminalisation doesn&#8217;t remove sexual violence from Germany and New Zealand, then I&#8217;m sure that she could find evidence that shows the decline of abuse in the sex trade in Sweden.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2018Laura Lee has put forward arguments that prostitution is labour, and that the only harm to those involved comes from feminists and police officers.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Laura Lee stated that she never said those words, and has backed it up with her own evidence. The screenshots speak for themselves.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_1.jpg\" alt=\"Laura Lee Statement\" width=\"516\" height=\"891\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_1.jpg 516w, https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_1-174x300.jpg 174w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_2.jpg\" alt=\"Laura Lee Statement\" width=\"517\" height=\"890\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2876\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_2.jpg 517w, https:\/\/www.escort-scotland.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Decriminalisation_screenshot_2-174x300.jpg 174w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 517px) 100vw, 517px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"inline\">\u2018The media representatives of the sex workers\u2019 rights movement are mainly atypical of those in prostitution.\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>If she really believed that, then she shouldn\u2019t have referenced Laura Lee, because she\u2019s a campaigner and a speaker for SWAI Ireland, the organisation that supports and fights for sex workers rights in Ireland. If that is true, then all forms of media that support the decriminalisation and legalisation of sex work would not exist. Fuck, even porn wouldn\u2019t even exist, or be legal to watch.<\/p>\n<p>Billie Piper, the actress that played as the protagonist in \u2018Secret Diary of a Call Girl\u2019, hit back against criticism about the show&#8217;s context that there are \u2018middle-class, cultured, well-read women who take part in [sex work]\u2019.

They state that it is their choice to work in the sex trade.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and Bindel\u2019s quote on how \u2018decriminalisation makes sense for the minority of privileged folk involved\u2019 can be debunked by Vice\u2019s article on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vice.com\/read\/blow-jobs-are-real-jobs-v23n1\">Thai Sex Workers fighting for their right to earn a living in the trade<\/a>. Let me assure you, the sex workers that live in Thailand are not privileged, and they\u2019re not a minority.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"inline\">\u2018Police powers have been reduced under decriminalisation.\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Open Society Foundations released a PDF on the net that states <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opensocietyfoundations.org\/sites\/default\/files\/decriminalize-sex-work-20120713.pdf\">10 reasons why sex work should be decriminalised<\/a>. If you get the time to read the PDF, I want you to look at the 3rd section of the essay: \u2018decriminalisation increased sex workers\u2019 access to justice.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>In the paragraph, the Ontario Superior Court cited that most sex workers in Canada don\u2019t report rape or other forms of sexual violence in fear that they would be \u2018punished in other ways.\u2019 For example, if a prostitute reports to the police that she was raped in a country that enacts the Nordic Model, she would end up getting arrested because she was involved in procuring. <\/p>\n<p>The correlation between decriminalisation and police power would state that a barrier would be taken away from the workers that report the violence, the police that would arrest the attackers, and the legitimate justice that would be served.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"inline\">\u2018Pimps still exist, but become business managers, and brothels are rebranded as regular business.\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>For many sex workers, this statement can be seen as an insult, not because they are pimps themselves and have their own brothels, but because it implies that sex work cannot be validated as work. This is what organisations and campaigners, like Laura Lee, are trying to get rid of, the social stigmatisation and prejudice against sex workers, whether they\u2019re men or women. <\/p>\n<p>To say that it\u2019s only sex workers that receive abuse disregards the fact that workers in a different trades receive abuse too. Not everyone can do all of the jobs that you could think of in the world, otherwise, we wouldn\u2019t have women that have a negative view on the sex trade; that\u2019s the reality of it. But to say that \u2018decriminalisation also led to an increase in people working in the sex trade\u2019, and to say it as if it\u2019s a bad thing is offensive to men and women that enjoy working in that industry.  <\/p>\n<h2 class=\"inline\">Don&#8217;t scare people that want to work in the sex trade<\/h2>\n<p><strong>In my opinion, the article that\u2019s published on the Guardian website is based on the moral issues of the writer that uses unsubstantial evidence and hearsay to back up her point.<\/strong> Unfortunately, an example such as this emphasises the stereotype of an abolitionist, like Julie Bindel; a person who would modify and cherry pick certain information to support a movement that would fit her criteria, or the criteria of her chosen political ideology.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, I call bullshit on your article, Julie Bindel. And from looking at the comments left on your article, most of them are calling bullshit too.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I didn\u2019t pay much attention this story until it became a trending topic on Google\u2019s news tab.
