Get those pimps out of the USA.
When I clicked on the article I thought I was going to read the UN is moving out of NY to Amsterdam or Copenhagen where they could get legal prostitutes. My mistake, damn it.
To ensure an effective, sustainable response to HIV that is consistent with human rights obligations:
3.2. Countries must reform their approach towards sex work. Rather than punishing consenting adults involved in sex work, countries must ensure safe working conditions and off er sex workers and their clients access to effective HIV and health services and commodities. Countries must:3.2.1 Repeal laws that prohibit consenting adults to buy or sell sex, as well as laws that otherwise prohibit commercial sex, such as laws against immoral earnings, living off the earnings of prostitution and brothel-keeping. Complementary legal measures must be taken to ensure safe working conditions to sex workers.
3.2.2 Take all measures to stop police harassment and violence against sex workers.
3.2.3 Prohibit the mandatory HIV and STI testing of sex workers.
3.2.4 Ensure that the enforcement of anti-human-trafficking laws is carefully targeted to punish those who use force, dishonesty or coercion to procure people into commercial sex, or who abuse migrant sex workers through debt bondage, violence or by deprivation of liberty. Anti-human-trafficking laws must be used to prohibit sexual exploitation and they must not be used against adults involved in consensual sex work.
(etc)
Eliminate mandatory HIV/STI testing???? Are they INSANE???
Whenever I hear ‘consensual sex’ worker I know that the person stating such is an idiot. They don’t know prostitutes or the origins of their lives.
Stop financial support of the UN and
tell them to get out of the US.
Tax it. license it, regulate it....Control it.
