In Weitzer’s essays, they did a really good job at challenging essentialist/’bad sex’ stigmas of sex work. After reading these texts, Weitzer has helped me to confirm presuppositions that shape my pro-sex work ideology. These texts used scientific data, public records, and studies to prove that the criminalization of sex work is a greater threat to our society then the legalization of sex work. Following are a few things these essays taught me. 

1. Abolitionist crusade’s assert that the legalization of sex work will contribute to an increase in sex trafficking. In contrary to this assertion, the legalization of sex work decreases trafficking due to the enhanced government regulation and oversight of the legal sector. (Sex Work: Paradigms and PoliciesWeitzer)

2. Abolitionist/anti-prostitution crusades were successful in lobbying their interests during the George W. Bush administration.  Abolitionist Feminist groups in collaboration with right winged politicians were able to institutionalize these moral crusades by consultation and Inclusion of activists in policy making, official recognition of crusade ideology, officials independent articulation of this ideology, and pragmatic and legal changes in accordance with this ideology. (Sex Work: Paradigms and PoliciesWeitzer)
3.  I learned the definition and ideology of a abolitionist Feminist. It is someone who argues that the sex industry should be entirely eliminated because of its objectification and oppressive treatment of women, considered to be inherent in sex for sale. The groups who reject abolitionism have been increasingly marginalized as a result. (The Social Construction of Sex Trafficking)

4. Research shows, Sex workers show in increase in self-esteem and are very satisfied with being sex workers. An Australian study found that sex workers were incredibly satisfied and Prince’s comparative studied concluded that an array of sex worker in Nevada saw a spike in their self-esteem after being employed in the sex work industry. (The Social Construction of Sex Trafficking)

5. Within the wide array of sex workers, it is those who work indoors that have an advantage, more then the ‘street walkers’ per se. In brothels, massage parlors, saunas, clubs, sex workers have their coworkers, personnel and other safety protocols to protect themselves from an unsafe encounter with a client.  (The Social Construction of Sex Trafficking)
