Sex work remains illegal across the United States, save for seven rural counties in Nevada, and the debate over the rights of sex workers remains a hot button issue.
Those who stand against legitimate sex work often believe that to do anything else would mean opening the door to the gross sex trafficking of innocents, but does one really precipitate the other? Plus, does policing consensual sex work accomplish anything or does it really just expose more women to worse legitimate violations?
