"The conversation surrounding sex work affects all human beings, even if we aren’t sex workers ourselves or hire sex workers. This issue is, at its core, about our bodies and the agency we should have over them and our actions. [...] We also need to be aligning these conversations alongside the other larger, cultural conversations that are currently taking place — about policing, incarceration, the murders of trans women of color and other vulnerable members of our society — and basic human rights that everyone should be concerned with. [...] Events like the Rentboy raid don’t just affect sex workers — they impact all people affected by policing, incarceration, surveillance and institutionalized racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia and transphobia."
