>sex workers are seen as victims and those who insist they aren't are not listened to or seen as necessary collateral in order to protect the vast majority who are.

Show me this vast majority. Otherwise, are you claiming that’s the general perception of sex workers?

>Most there are probably "victims".

Even if true, what does that have to do with self-determination? If was an alcoholic due to circumstances outside of my control, that doesn’t mean that i don't have the right, as an adult, to drink myself to death.

I’m not trying to be confrontational, but I am trying to understand what seems to be a Swedish perspective: how does removing agency from the individuals you ostensibly aim to help serve their best interests? From an American perspective, it comes across as quite shitty.
