As Australia confronts a culture of gendered violence, women in the sex industry say they’re being left out of the conversation. EmmaBrancat

Amid a national conversation on confronting a culture of sexism and gendered violence in Australia, one group of women say they're being left out: those in the sex industry.

"In broad conversations about sexual assault, consent and safety at work, I think sex workers can often be left out of those conversations - particularly by some feminists." "We are silent on the sex industry at the national level. It's put in the 'too hard' basket and we don't want to confront what is actually happening there," she told SBS News. Tanya Plibersek says 'we have failed as a parliament' in a plea for cultural change for women

“We are aware of the different positions and concerns on the issue of prostitution/sex work and are attentive to the important views of all concerned,” Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka "UN Women has taken a neutral position on this issue. Thus, UN Women does not take a position for or against the decriminalisation/legalisation of prostitution/sex work."

EmmaBrancat Women in the sex industry are putting themselves at risk and into a bad situations, they should consider other options then sex work

EmmaBrancat What?!? They're treated like The Oracle, the all-knowing, all-seeing holy cow by most people who talk about sex workers.

EmmaBrancat I agree. We must listen to them. Out of respect, first and foremost.
