We would be happy to take a look at your research, but where is it? Mr. Goodyear’s site is a collection of links to people, many of whom seem to share a career plan based on destroying the reputation of a solid and careful researcher. Their “research” is usually a literature review. I assume you know the difference.

It is high time for sex worker advocates to prove their point or risk coming off as simple sex industry advocates with big vocabularies but no depth.

Does prostitution harm women or not? Do johns respect or despise sex workers? Is legal status really the problem causing harm to sex workers or is the work itself damaging? These are straightforward questions that legislators need answers to. Attacking the only credible researcher in the field is not the equivalent of providing actual facts and numbers from peer-reviewed, standards-based questionnaires administered by highly trained researchers.

Do the work or get out of our hair. We are working for public safety. What is your interest?

It shows the collapse of basic fundamental common sense that a “paper” that would fail even the most basic high school standards of statistics and research, is being accepted as fact….mostly because it mimes popular anti-sexual prejudices.

And, it’s good to see that real scientists and researchers are speaking out against this nonsense…let’s see if they get the publicity that Farley does.
