The term "sex worker" is a campaign spearheaded by pimps, brothel owners and similar creatures that profit form the exploitation of women to legitimize their so called industry. The goal is to make it seem like prostitution is work like any other work and should by that logic be legalized. They try to make it seem like it is about helping prostitutes and "empowering" them and try to appeal to liberals when in reality it is a campaign that legitimizes exploitation and violence against women. https://www.spectator.com.au/2017/08/the-sex-worker-myth/ https://www.spectator.com.au/2017/08/the-sex-worker-myth/ > One of the most disturbing discoveries I made was that the loudest voices calling for legalisation and normalisation of prostitution are the people who profit from it: pimps, punters and brothel owners.
