Really, what a shock. Look at who MADE the film. Then PREDICT what the "found".

Assinine. There are legitimate human trafficking issues and crimes around the hobby that are of a concern.

The biggest reason why the women who chose to participate are "victims" it b/c its ILLEGAL!

Thus, they end up dealing with criminals - pimps.

It would be so much better if it were legal - for the ladies.

The John's would still run a big risk of being outed - to their families, professions, etc.

Well, so would the ladies. But as it is, they risk SO much more right now.

It its a woman's right to "chose" an abortion or not, b/c its her body, how come she can't make a much more personal choice about who she sleeps with and why?

So now Canada is the Dominican Republic of the North?

It is quite difficult to imagine the ladies here as 'victims'

True, but the key point is that its only "some" and not all. Just be diligent in your research and avoid the "some".

I think I wasn't clear enough:

It is too bad some people refuse to believe any women are forced to be here.
It is too bad some people, especially the media, refuse to believe any women are here voluntarily.

Both those attitudes cause serious harm.

I have hade little problem avoiding the coerced ones.

Not sure if the problem is prostitution... or pimps... -_-
