'No'means No, But Does 'Yes'mean Yes ?
EroticaFor the foresighted sentence, woman were treated as men 's property in club. Women could n't decide whom to get married. And it was legally unimaginable for a husband to rape his wife. Because the woman had no right wing to say 'No'to him.
Only recently laws have been changed to have women the full right hand to say 'No'to a guy, even if he is her husband.
Now, a woman 's 'No'finally means 'No'in USA and in most other countries. But whether a cleaning woman can say 'Yes'to a guy for having sex is still an undecided return even in USA.
Even many so-called liberals are now advocating the Swedish framework of anti-prostitution laws. This Swedish model basically treats adult charwoman as nipper shaver, who have no rightfield to hand consent for having sex with a guy. Such a law treats women leniently, as if they are small fry who do n't know what they are doing. Instead, the law goes after the men. Such a law treats men as if they are intimate predator taking vantage of incompetent women, who are incapable of deciding for themselves.
This treatment of charwoman as if they are incompetent shaver is actually a throwback to the old prison term, when cleaning woman had no legal right. Because that 's how woman were described in the yesteryear in rules of order to traverse them the right either to say 'Yes'or 'No'in their marriage, in their sex, and in their life sentence.
Surprisingly, some feminist are now advocating the Swedish modelling of anti-prostitution practice of law. And I say surprisingly, because such law are using the same mind and assumptions that libber have been fighting against in the past.
I suppose, not all feminists are alike. Some porn-stars, such as Angela White for example, call themselves feminist. And there are feminist who are against the variety of smut Angela White makes. So, feminists do n't all fit in their ideas and what to do.
But when feminists advocate laws that deny competent adult women the right to say 'Yes'to a guy. Then this is almost like civil rights advocates supporting some form of return back to slavery. It 's a betrayal of their fundamental idea and their cause. Which makes me ask, whether these feminists are really feminists, or whether they are just claiming to be feminists to destroy feminism from inside ?
In their defense, anti-prostitution feminists would say that even competent adult women in the sex-trade are often forced and coerced to do their sex-work. These woman are n't free people to say 'No'to cat, and their 'Yes'does n't really mean 'Yes'in their situation. Which is dependable in the situation they describe.
The entirely problem with this argumentation is that compulsion and forcing of any grownup in anything is already against the law. And you can bump plenty of ordinary labor victimisation among migratory farm workers, illegal immigrants, and so on. There is nothing special about such things going on in the sex-trade too.
If completely banning the business, where some workers are exploited, is a reasonable response. Then this means that farm labor movement should be banned, janitorial work should be banned, and any other line of work should be banned, when workers are found to be exploited there. When you look at it this way, then what these women's liberationist are saying is n't reasonable or credible at all.
A fairish response would be to stimulate programs and regulation for monitoring potential exploitation, ending it whenever it 's found, and punishing those responsible for. And this is exactly what governing do, when they want to end exploitation of workers in various occupations.
outside of feminism, one telling feature of this denial for charwoman the right to say 'Yes'to a guy is the mutual exclusiveness in laws and people 's attitudes.
Women actually have a right field to induce sex for money, when they make erotica. Perhaps adult female ca n't make porn in every legal power. But porn is available everywhere. And governments are generally tolerating it. So, women are basically saying 'Yes'to paying bozo and making money off having sex with guy wire in porn.
But as soon as you take away the photographic camera, and the cleaning woman just has sex for money in private with a guy. Then the politics and many citizenry call this 'prostitution'and do their best to abnegate women the rightfulness to say 'Yes'to a guy.
So, having sex for money is okay in one situation but not O.K. in another. And the only difference is whether the charwoman 's sex with the guy is public or private. Which is another contradiction.
You would naturally wait people to feature more right field and freedom in private than in public. But what we have now is the reverse. Women can says 'Yes'when they have sex for money to pee world smut. But women are treated as incompetent fry, when they try to have sex for money in private.
The affair about treating adult fair sex as unqualified minors in this situation is that it 's like a Trojan Horse that in the future can be used to reverse women 's right field and go back to the old way of treating fair sex as minor children. Because if it 's okay to process women as small fry in having sex, then why not move the law and attitudes a little more in the historical direction and abnegate women the right to do something else ?
Once you compromise on your precept and you do n't experience any, then there is no way to cognise when and where to stop moving womanhood 's rights in reverse.
Describing adults as incompetent shaver has been used historically to warrant inglorious slavery and traverse charwoman their rights as full citizens of the country.
Most of such attitudes have been overcome. But there is one big exception now. Anti-prostitution legal philosophy are based on the thought that adult charwoman are like minor tyke, and they should be treated as such in this kind of a situation.
And actually politicians, who advocate such jurisprudence, often do tattle about shaver and children to justify their Torah. They just bury to mention that they are playing a sweetener and flip sort of cut-rate sale tactic to sell their laws. They talk about fry and children, but they make their laws for adult women instead. So, there is some dirty and sneaky politics involved in this too.
Governments, politicians, and busybodies abusing their power to take away people 's rights and freedom has a long history in virtually every land. Anti-prostitution laws are a modern example of this. And historically, such laws and posture did n't go away on their own. Only widespread resistance and subversion of such laws and posture is what has made them go away in the past.
thrall did n't go away on its own. It ended only as a resultant role of the Civil War that killed millions. And fair sex did n't get their rights as a effect of men 's benevolence either. Their engagement for their rights has been long and hard, even longer than that of the slaves. And this fight is n't yet fully finished. Because anti-prostitution laws are still treating adult women as children.
I think ethical hoi polloi and people of conscience should balk and subvert such Laws and mental attitude whenever they can. Because this is tyranny, and Caesarism does n't go away on its own. We will have tyranny as long as people accept it and choose to live with it .
