Pornography and prostitution are two sides of the same issue. There is no principal difference between buying a human being on glossy paper, on film or in real life.
Prostitution is abuse and the customers are abusers. Brothels must be closed down, the customers must be penalized and support arrangements for the women in prostitution must be strengthened.
The fight against the selling and buying of women is linked to the fight to strengthen women’s economical situation and improve their work conditions. We want the six hours workday with full day wages.

Wages, choice of career, poverty, contraception and abortion, pornography and prostitution. It’s all about dignity, life conditions and personal growth. Our task is to change the society. Feminism is to take action.
Struggle for women’s liberation is a confrontation against being simplified, framed up and objectified.
Feminism
is to fight the patriarchy
is to take room
is to decide yourself
is a political choice
Clarify, confront and make a change. Be a feminist! |
