How is it that a bunch of stoners can get weed legalised so quick, yet sex workers are left to fend for themselves amid a GBV crisis?Last week, I went back to dabbling in the dark corners of Twitter, only to be reminded why I prefer keeping my head in the sands of other social media platforms. Like many, I was exposed to a naked woman refusing to let go of a hotel patron who seemingly enjoyed the services of this apparent sex worker, then refused to pay for them.
I mean, maybe there is another interpretation to her shouting, “No. No. No. No. My pussy’s not for free. Give money.” Uhm… not quite. I’m not sure how it came to pass, but a governmental commission on the subject resolved that it’s first option would be to retain total illegality but offer support to the newly minted prossie criminals to “divert them out of the criminal justice system”.
Even in 2002, a minority Constitutional Court judgment pointed out that our law unfairly discriminates against prostitutes by making them the primary offenders. What’s been done since? Pretty much nothing. It’s taken a bunch of stoners less time to get dagga legal than it’s taken us to offer proper protection to sex workers.
Arrest them you say? Sure, because I’m sure you’d be happy to pay for an extra 150,000 women behind bars.
