Liberal Conspiracy

Contrary to the media, the sex industry doesn’t empower women
http://liberalconspiracy.org/2010/07/25/contrary-to-the-media-the-sex-industry-doesnt-empower-women/

- real story of sex industry: ptsd, sexual assault, drug abuse, trafficking
- sex industry as a class issue
- recent application to open lap-dancing club: upon inappropriate touching would reject client not report to police for a crime.
- women in sex industry 60-100 times more likely to be murdered
- trans women at higher risk
- 68% of women working in industry suffer ptsd
- those who promote sex industry deny women voices


Betraying sex workers
http://liberalconspiracy.org/2009/01/11/betraying-sex-workers/

- International Union of Sex Workers (IUSW) branch of GMB, one of Britian’s Biggest Trade Unions
- Douglas Fox works as a male sex worker.
- Douglas Fox + John Dockerty run large agencies + advocate for sex workers rights.  Is this for concern of the rights of the women or for their profit margins?
- Campaigning to “punters” to donate to the IUSW
- anyone can join IUSW
- How can a trade union represent the interests of workers and employers at the same time?
- Has Douglas Fox abused the rights of any women in his employment, or abused his position as a union spokesperson?
