You know what would actually, for real cut down on exploitation and trafficking? Legalising sex work and building an actual social safety net! So they can actually use the legal protections most other workers at least in theory enjoy! https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-55298303

This is your friendly reminder that "sex work is work" does not mean "sex work is a universal good." it means sex work is _labour_, and vulnerable to the same exploitation and alienation that any other labour is
