Today is International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers #IDEVASW. Ireland’s sex work laws are fueling violence and endangering lives.

#IDEVASW exposes how laws that claim to protect are, in reality, resulting in harassment, violence and even death.

The structural violence and stigma that sex workers face in Ireland are a result of a whorephobic state that ignores sex workers' needs in favour of laws based on ideology rather than safety.

Today is International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers, so I wanted to share this video I scripted for Hannah Witton about what feminists who aren't sex workers often get wrong about sex work. (With fact- and tone-checking from Decrim Now, a grassroots campaign group fighting for the decriminalisation of sex work.) #IDEVASW
