Feeling like people should know that everydayfeminism.com is founded by and run by the same 2 people that founded polaris project, and one of them still sits on the board at PP. If you don’t know, Polaris Project is pretty much one of the most influential orgs, if not The Most Influential org that pushes end demand policies in the US. They offer ‘evidence’ and testimony at congressional hearings and they craft sample legislation and send it out to all the US states so they can know how to format their own end demand laws. They’ve gotten hundreds of thousands of dollars from the government and have used much of it to basically spread sex trafficking hysteria and discredit the sex workers rights movement. They are the worst. And now the founders have this super social justicey site where they publish shit like this http://everydayfeminism.com/2014/11/myths-people-sex-industry/ which is co-written by a non-sex worker and one of the founders of PP and OF COURSE the one myth they make sure to NOT mention is the myth that end demand policies are good for sex workers.
wwwwelllp. that didn’t take long to confirm at all! (interesting that it’s been delisted from everydayfeminism’s about the team page, but not wikipedia …)
Learned a new and unfortunate thing today :\
Not surprised.
Feminism: countering male control of women with women controlling women!
Heeeeey, something to remember while Everyday Feminism is begging for money to survive.
I dislike Everyday Feminism and also anti-sex-worker legislation
Scrupulous-baiting horrid articles, predatory online courses, now shitty pseudo-charities, nice
