"“Sex workers, our clients, our friends, cab drivers, nannies; we are all implicated as being part of or related to the ‘sex trafficking industry’ now,” ESPLER observes in the report" https://www.ynot.com/espler-report-sex-work-privacy-rights/

"The media and society, in general, often conflate the term pedophile and ‘child molester .’ For example, journalists sometimes refer to individuals as ‘convicted pedophiles.’ This terminology is wrong and confusing." https://prostasia.org/blog/so-youve-been-called-a-pedophile/

"It’s important to recognize that even if you are a pedophile, that does not mean you are doomed to harm anyone. It just means you have an atypical sexual attraction…An attraction only. It does not mean you will go on to sexually offend." https://prostasia.org/blog/so-youve-been-called-a-pedophile/

"Adult entertainment companies and mainstream social media networks do more to fight CSAM and other exploitative content on their platforms than religious organizations such as NCOSE." https://intpolicydigest.org/porn-s-underappreciated-efforts-to-counter-child-exploitation/

"It is therefore not surprising that research finds little evidence to support Kennedy's assumption that publicly accessible registries protect potential victims." https://reason.com/2023/03/01/how-scotus-promoted-pernicious-myths-about-sex-offender-registries/

"Bureaucratic sex creep is a term used to define the enlargement of bureaucratic regulation of an individual’s sexual conduct that is voluntary, non-harassing, nonviolent, and ultimately causes no harm to other individuals." https://www.ynot.com/sex-bureaucracy-targeting-adult-entertainment/

Gender-affirming treatments save lives. Politicians who deny trans people, including trans youth, access to healthcare have blood on their hands.

"FSC provided a statement to the conservative Washington, D.C. paper, pointing out that the proposed age verification bills are “ineffective, a disaster for privacy, and blatantly unconstitutional.”" https://www.xbiz.com/news/271781/right-wing-media-amplifies-nationwide-push-for-age-verification

RT @JinkxMonsoon: Tell me—WHAT DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE TO MOTIVATE THIS BILL?! None?! It's just a diversion from their lies and corruption? Oh—ok. Just checking.

RT @GymCastic: “A survivor of historical child sexual abuse at the hands of a former trampoline coach has accused British Gymnastics of "catastrophic failures" in what she claims is the biggest case of sexual abuse in the governing body's history.”

Great piece on the censorship craze by ⁦@hallielieberman⁩

RT @qirtaiba: And why has @RonWyden’s Invest in Child Safety Act been forgotten? Unlike either of the other laws mentioned, it would invest real money – $5bn – into both enforcement of existing laws and prevention. Yet it attracted virtually no interest from lawmakers.

California is considering some changes to the state's sex offense registry, including allowing listings of child pornography (CSAM) offenders to be removed after 30 years. https://all4consolaws.org/2023/02/ca-sex-offender-management-board-reaches-general-consensus-on-changes-to-tiered-registry-law/

RT @ACLUIndiana: BREAKING: Indiana legislators are moving forward with a horrific bill modeled off Florida's infamous "Don't Say Gay" law.

HB 1608 would censor or even ban discussion or acknowledgment of LGBTQ people in schools.

We need you at the Statehouse with us on Monday to stop this bill.
