I wanted to clarify a point (not because anyone asked but because I realized I never said this before) regarding the last post on sex workers rights<\/a>. I do not speak on behalf of sex workers. I am not some “representative of sex workers rights<\/em>” or any such thing. Simply because I am not one and as such, I am not qualified to represent their voices.

Particularly when those groups supposedly have my best interest in mind while doing so.

At least it will be known that when they say they have women’s rights in mind, they are not speaking on my behalf.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
