A common argument by anti-sex work groups is that trafficking increases when SW is legalized. This argument is very wrong for several reasons: 1. Anti-SW people like to move the goal posts and definitions of what constitutes trafficking by saying that a willing worker is being trafficked because she is engaging in sex work to help pay rent or another life circumstance that has her choose sex work. By that logic, yes, trafficking increases when legalization occurs…ONLY because opponents change the definitions of what THEY define trafficking as. 2. Per a 2017 report from the International Labor Organization, 25 million people worldwide were estimated to be trafficked in different industries. Sex work trafficking didn’t even account for a majority of trafficking victims. The labor sector saw MORE trafficking victims than sex work saw (construction, agriculture, etc). The take away is this: legalization does NOT lead to more trafficking. And if a legalization-trafficking correlation is a reason to outlaw sex work, then per the ILO stats, farming should also be outlawed.
