That's a carefully worded headline:

Bid to decriminalise sex work in South Australia defeated in Parliament

For a moment I thought it was only the parliamentarians doing the sex work.

Disappointing to see. Hope you guys see the light down there!

Labor MP Claire Scriven said.

"The defeat of this bill says that women will not be commodities, we will not buy and sell women and we will not protect the pimps. That would have been the outcome."

"Women would have been more vulnerable and more exploited … the fact that this has been defeated is a really good outcome for all women in South Australia."

Claire Scriven... You are a fool

It's the last thing I would be worried about if I lived there!

It's the fact that it is criminalised that women are doing in dangerous circumstances or under pimps and madame. The politicians happily use the services but won't decriminalise them.
