Yes, we're all aware that the sex industry is no different to any other sector in that there are corners of it which are unscrupulous and exploitative, which is why there are laws in place to cover rape and sexual assault, child abuse, false imprisonment, incitement and so on which protect those who may be vulnerable to these things.
The difference is that nobody is trying to get farming or factories banned because it would be crazy to destroy an entire, legitimate industry for the sake of some who have nothing to do with it, and are already operating outside the law - that is the concern of people here. There are people here who love their job and others who loathe it, but they all still chose to do it, and nobody here is likely to be working against their will (or they would be unlikely to have free access to the internet, either). I hated every second of being a barmaid, but I still chose to do that too.
Anyway, I obviously wasn't clear enough, so I'll reword my question: do/does you/your organisation support the criminalisation of the purchase of sex rather than decriminalisation of our work and proper application of the existing laws I've mentioned to punish only the wrongdoers rather than all of us? A yes or a no will do fine.
