The BBC's political equivalent of Jeremy Kyle is hosting "has the time come to decriminalise sex work" tomorrow morning.

I'm going to be in the audience; if anyone wants to support the Nordic model voice via twitter please do!

They just asked politely. Clearly they could not put any kind of pressure.

The council called her up and took his side. They seemed to think he had the same right to a sex life

I don't believe this happened.

GenderEqualityAdvocate · 02/04/2017 19:01

No Venus I took her side. I even side with the women who specify they will not sleep with certain races. When it comes to sex they should be allowed to discriminate by age, race, whatever

ChocChocPorridge · 02/04/2017 19:01

And men Gender - you don't want to be discriminatory after all.

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 19:00

You need to set up the scheme. Don't expect other people to do all the work for you!

GenderEqualityAdvocate · 02/04/2017 18:59

I would gladly whore myself out to disabled women. Where do I sign up?

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:58

The council called her up and took his side. They seemed to think he had the same right to a sex life.

And you think that's a good thing? That women can't turn people down for any reason they wish? That is non consensual.

GenderEqualityAdvocate · 02/04/2017 18:57

I reckon Jeremy would pay for sex. Nicky never in a month of sundays

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:56

If posters feel so strongly that disabled people should have a sex life, perhaps they should set up some sort of voluntary scheme? And put themselves on the list, obviously. How about it Hold?

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 02/04/2017 18:55

The BBC's political equivalent of Jeremy Kyle is hosting I'm sorry I'm not having the lovely Nicky Campbell described like that

Yes , that is very unfair. I knew Nicky at university- he was a nice guy.

GenderEqualityAdvocate · 02/04/2017 18:54

Interestingly I know one sex worker who was contacted by a deaf guy about sex. She replied saying she was not comfortable with a guy who could not hear her say no, so he contacted the local council and reported her for discrimination.

The council called her up and took his side. They seemed to think he had the same right to a sex life.

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 02/04/2017 18:53

Gender you're wasting your time trying to reason here. Choc & Venus have showed how narrow minded they are but out of interest what do you both think about people with disabilities paying for sex?

Please add me to the "narrow minded " list too.

No one should have the right to buy sex. Gender is not "reasoning" with anyone. He is a punter. He is attempting to try to convince us, and failing, that punters should not be treated with the contempt they deserve.

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:52

Haha I missed that Grin

ChocChocPorridge · 02/04/2017 18:52

HoldBackTheRain - since you're so willing to endanger women for fun, how do you feel about putting yourself on all the bone marrow/kidney/liver/lung donation lists? After all, that's putting yourself at risk to save someone - must be better than putting someone else at risk so you can ejaculate right?

How about allowing people to buy kidneys? That'd be fine right? Not exploitative at all, poor people totally wouldn't be coerced into it by rich people would they?

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:51

DFOD.

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:51

How many times exactly do you wish me to say it? No I don't think anyone has the right to expect other people to fuck them.

HoldBackTheRain · 02/04/2017 18:51

Sorry I can't keep up with your constant posts, message received and understood.

HoldBackTheRain · 02/04/2017 18:49

Cross post, so I'm guessing from the above you don't agree with people with disabilities paying for sex either? You call it your point of view, I call it narrow minded.

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:49

I've just answered you. I don't believe sex is a human right and that prostitution is wrong. No exceptions. I'm not sure why you think I'd feel any different.

ChocChocPorridge · 02/04/2017 18:48

people with disabilities paying for sex?

I think that you're underselling people with disabilities - many of which could find partners the normal way.

No-one has a right to sex, no-one has the right to endanger someone else, just so they can orgasm. Sorry if you find that narrow minded. I have said that I would support full regulation, but only within a real H&S framework that protected the women (or men) involved.

BTW Gender - I didn't necessarily mean with women, perhaps you could come up with a barter deal with other men who want to abuse women whereby you suck his dick and he'll suck yours for free - you get twice the sex, and don't have to spend a penny then!

HoldBackTheRain · 02/04/2017 18:47

Venus I'm happy to get over myself but still wondering what you think of people with disabilities paying for sex?

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:45

And I don't believe in prostitution. I don't believe anyone has a right to sex.

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:44

He's not "reasoning" he's putting forward his own self-serving point of view.

venusinscorpio · 02/04/2017 18:43

I'm not narrow minded, I have a particular opinion about prostitution which isn't the same as yours. Get over yourself.
