History of Feminism

Sweden tries one way, other counties try others, here we are twist and between, in the meantime allowing great harm.

FWIW, I have a friend who is an escort (the term she prefers) she hates the Swedish approach because to her, it stigmatizes prostitutes-- "not all are victims" she says. She is a feminist and an activist and we disagree completely on this topic. I feel because of gender disparities prostitutes are absolutely victims, that the word choice is practically a misnomer because in our society, it's a logical progression to escape poverty for girls and women-- but not men.

I'm having a discussion elsewhere about this topic, involving street kids from my past, generally, women are tired of taking the blame and the legal consequences. They tend to say "legalize", and I again, think it's far too simplistic and leads to other problems. At least we have countries where it has been legalized, like Sweden, who looked at the consequences and decided on another approach.
