The suite of reforms includes removing penalties for people participating in street-based work, and repealing a register that contains details of independent workers.

Victorian sex workers and industry advocacy groups say the state's new reforms for the industry are "a win", but are not a panacea for workers, especially those in regional areas.

The reforms still include restrictions on where sex workers can legally work, including restrictions near places of worship. Peaches Smith, a sex worker and co-ordinator of Vixen's outreach and education team, said Tuesday's announcements were a huge achievement."This is a starting for point us to be advocating for increased access for services relevant to sex workers."Ms Smith said she grew up in a small town in the state's north-east before moving to Melbourne to begin working in the industry.

"You still can't legally work at or near places of worship, schools, children's services, education, and care services," Ms Patten said."Without the changes … it doesn't remove the barriers to justice and barriers to services, because of the partial criminalisation that is in place," she said.

Sex workers, promoting that women are just objects for men's physical enjoyment, then women wonder why men think of them of nothing more and get abused. You can't have it both ways, be respected and still used.
