Also let me just put this out there. This is a recent text from a potential client. This is my biggest fear not just for me but for other workers

THIS IS NOT A FETISH!!! This is someone with serious mental issues and has the potential of really hurting someone

Answer

Legalize it regulate it and tax it. 
My profile is 100% open. If y’all feel like scrolling I have pages of comments based off my experience as an escort/hoe/hooker whatever u wanna call it. 
Basically legalizing it eliminates the need for a pimp, helps close the gap between consenting workers and workers being “sold”/forced (although chances are that’s a private transaction through the pimp and client, not so much on the popular escort sites) . I had the potential to make over 1.6 billion  annually back in taxes (stats taken by 5 major/popular counties in California alone). 
Also, the taxes taken from such business could help eliminate the multiple arrest and  time wasted for local police departments spent on catching consenting adults. Not only that, the police literally take money from the workers and pocket it, legalizing it only makes it safer for everyone participating. 
Regulate it by having the workers register as a sex worker, list their main locations (if multiple locations) , and get tested once ever 1-3 months.  
Taxes: the taxes accumulated from these workers can be put towards police teams (to search for the workers being forced), health care services, and much more. 
Legalizing it: by legalizing it, it offers more security for workers, possibly eliminating them being silenced after a rape or physical assault, even robbery. And as I said b4 it eliminates the need for a pimp. HOWEVER not all “pimps” are bad. Although they qualify as pimps, there are some guys that are literally just trying to make money , and are legit security guards for the girls, but under the penal code they still qualify as a pimp and could end up with 12-life for literally just trying to keep a girl safe nothing more. Also, there’s a lot of discrimination in this business because of safety reasons (unfortunately that’s how it is hate to say it) legalizing it (again) will offer more security possibly eliminating the amount of discrimination in the business

Answer

Legal. Sex workers have rights too and should be able to exercise those rights when people take advantage of them whether it be a client or their boss.

Answer

Legalize it, regulate it. Make sure abusive people are put in jail, sex traffickers deserve to burn in hell.
If someone *chooses* to sell their sex, it should be legal. They should be able to sell sex.

Answer

I think it should be legal, but I do worry.
Sex workers already aren’t taken seriously in rape cases, and are often told “you’re a sex worker so it’s not rape”. If it’s legal wouldn’t it be harder to win a case?
