    Prostitution is Cruelty and Abuse to Women and Children

    Each day I rise to take up the truly good fight to stop the harm to women in prostitution. I long for complete liberation of all oppressed peoples. I passionately believe that the work I do to end prostitution is revolutionary. No one deserves to be used and abused, and that is the universal experience of prostituted women and children. It is also revolutionary work because my freedom as a woman is meaningless so long as some of us can be bought and sold. The giant sex industry grinds on, exploiting and enslaving women, while sexual liberals are well-paid by that industry to mock us with shallow concepts-concepts premised on never having heard the cries or experienced the terror of the victims of this monstrous institution.
