Decriminalising #sexwork in #NewZealand: its history and impact “The #Swedishmodel was considered but roundly rejected in New Zealand. Instead, parliament prioritised sex workers’ rights and listened to the voices of feminists and sex workers before voting for decriminalisation, trusting that they were best placed to talk about their own work.” via @ILikeBooks

”Feminist organisations […] also promote [the #SwedishModel], as they believe #sexwork contributes to violence against women through male entitlement and objectification.

Sex workers, however, believe the Swedish model puts their lives at risk and undermines their human rights.”
