I am currently and have been a sex worker for 4 yeas.  I know about 20 other ladies that are also workers.  Out of all 20 everyone is of age, has never been coerced or forced into doing anything.  We do this of our free will and also take steps to keep our self safe and healthy.  None of us use any type of drugs and most don't drink other than a glass of wine at night.  We take our health and our work seriously, none of us are victims.  The new laws have made it easier for us to call LE if we feel threatened or mistreated by a John so I guess it been good in that way.  I claim my income, pay my taxes, have my rrsp's,. remit my GST payments for services provided, I think I contribute to society as much as the next person and should have the right to do what I want to do with my body as long as I don't hurt anyone.  Just my thoughts and opinion.  And as a addition we are all what we call "incall" workers.  We don't walk the street or do "outcalls"  Street walkers are a totally different.
