I recently got to have a super thoughtful and interesting conversation with August McLaughlin at GirlBonerRadio – where good girls go for sexual empowerment (!!)
August and I talked about the World Health Organization’s recommendation to decriminalize sex work worldwide in an effort to stop the spread of HIV. It’s all here on GBR for your listening pleasure – “Legalizing Prostitution: Is Criminalizing Sex Work a Crime?”
Here’s the show synopsis:
Sex work is an over $100 billion global industry, yet it remains criminalized in many countries, including the U.S. August chats with renowned sociologist Chauntelle Tibbals, Ph.D on the World Health Organization’s recent report that recommends changing these laws.
(the WHO, incidentally, also recommended decriminalizing drug use to the same ends – read more about all that here)
Have a listen to GBR on iTunes here.
You can also listen to the show on Global Voice Broadcasting here and on Stitcher here.
And here’s more about August and her show, GirlBonerRadio:
