I may be entirely wrong, and anyone can feel free to dispute me on this, but I do believe Project Respect is sort of hated by a lot of sex workers in Victoria, due to their supporting criminalization at a point (possibly still now), and because of this I have a lot of biased against believing this article in it's entirety. It would be good for a parlour/brothel girl to chip in after reading it, because the article does really paint a different picture to indies, as you say Nameless. Good link!
