Why is there not opposition to this across the city, and indeed, across the country? I wonder how much people are aware of this outside the city and outside of feminist circles
There is huge opposition to the demilitarised zone (it's what I call it, Its not hyperbole), only problem is it's not currently fashionable to print the letters against, or in any way raise the profile of the many people against it.
My emails go unanswered now, and I'm mad as fuck about the whole thing.
But every time I manage to get one letter printed in a local paper with a fake name, plenty of men reply saying it's what the "girls" wanted do, and men will be men, and prostitution Is the oldest job in the world.
So I reply and say would you be happy if your wife/sister/daughter did it. That never gets printed.
It's going to take a lot more people to be very vocal about this issue. If your out of the area (which I now am) the council just ignore you, the police ignore you, the papers dont care.
It's not those mens daughters/sisters/wives doing it, they dont give a fig.
