One of the side effects of the Left’s open border policy has been increased human and sex trafficking. Cartels and gangs who profit off the drug trade also use girls and women for fun and profit. The party of women claims to oppose these abuses so why are they promoting them?

In a Teen Vogue article titled “Why Sex Work Is Real Work,” Dr. Tlaleng Mofokeng, founder of Nalane for Reproductive Justice, explains to teenage girls why she believes prostitution should be decriminalized throughout the world. Another article, written by Katie Fisher aka “Kitty Stryker” — who was formerly prostituted and performed in porn films — advises teens that anti–sex trafficking bills make prostitution more dangerous. She claims that sites such as Backpage, where individuals (often minors) were being trafficked by pimps who sought out customers, are unjustly targeted by these laws. Savannah Sly, a career sex worker, gives teens insight into how power and sex relate.
Legalized prostitution is all the rage on the left these days. Especially in Washington DC, where a new ordinance would “decriminalize the sex trade there, including pimping, sex buying, and brothel operations.”
Can you imagine, legalized sex trade in DC? Congresswoman Katie ‘throuple’ Hill wouldn’t have had to resign. And Democrats Kennedy and Chris Dodd could have assembled all sorts of “sandwiches” with prostitutes dressed as waitresses.
What’s the big deal?
Legalizing sex trafficking will not empower girls and women or make them safer. It will make it nearly impossible to prosecute actual traffickers and abusers of women and children.
It will do more harm than any advertised good.
Decriminalizing pimping and the sex trade would tie the hands of investigators. The buyers and the sellers would be able to continue their devastating business, while victims would have no clear way out.
The fact that Teen Vogue is in on this scheme is not surprising. This progressive rag preaches far-left dogma to doe-eyed kids. Normalizing all manner of dangerous and speculative narratives to the detriment of its primary audience, teenage girls.
Glorifying sex-trafficking may be a new low but I’m not a patron of their “art” so that’s more speculation at this point. But we do try to pay attention to the priorities they parrot. All of which seem to lead to corporate cronies like Planned Parenthood (PP).

It’s Big Business
PP makes it’s living off sex. Pregnancy prevention, testing, termination (chemical or surgical) even baby parts. The worst possible thing to happen to PP is for teens to abstain from sex, which according to the Merrimack NH House Rep is an unnatural act.
Planned Parenthood is once again implementing its immoral business model to increase its customer base, advocates like Planned Parenthood claim that “Sex work IS work” and therefore, people who work in the sex industry deserve the rights and protections of any other job.
But it is not ‘any other job,’ “people sell their bodies and their dignity when all other choices have been taken away.
And while the argument that decriminalization makes things easier or safer sounds great, is it true?
Far from being empowering, legalized prostitution leads to further exploitation. In the Netherlands, where prostitution has been legal since 2000, an estimated 50–90% of women are selling their bodies against their will.
The party of women and the #MeToo crowd should take a step back. At the very least they should oppose the sexualization of children. But will they when one of their biggest Lobbys, Planned Parenthood, is actively promoting this?
