But what if men visit professionals instead of dedicating all their energy to me in exchange for sporadic or nonexistent sex?
Lets decide these women have no agency and force them to sell their plasma and give all their time to the retail industry instead. Thats real compassion, and anyone who disagrees is a chud misogynist.

A belief being widely held doesn’t make it true.
Those links are from liberal feminist institutions that want to keep sex in short supply to control men.
Legalizing consentual acts does not mean you cannot prosecute sex traffickers.
If a brothel is forcing someone to sell sex against their will, arrest them.
How does criminalizing sex workers and johns not hurting anyone somehow benefit sex trafficking victims?

You sound like a white supremacist talking about crime stats.
If these stats are true, what’s the theory behind why this happens?
If the police raid a brothel and arrest people exclusively involved in consentual sex work how does that help sex trafficking victims who never interact with the johns at the consentual brothel?

the theory is probably explained in the several articles I linked.
All I'm saying is legal prostitution has been proven to increase human trafficking. Like that us gov article said legalisation increases demand without increasing supply (at least in a 1st world country) so you need to increase police capacity adequately which we haven't and won't

Sex trafficking is illegal before and after the legalization of consentual sex work.
If its illegal before and after, how do they make more money after?
> And because not enough women want to do it, women are trafficked in
Women can be trafficked in before legalization too, so what changes?

thats like saying allowing the selling of cars increases car theft because you allow more more people to “take” cars without being prosecuted.
you are conflating consentual and nonconsentual acts to make it seem like nonconsentual acts are no longer being prosecuted.

1. Because it's a service with a horrible stigma attached
2. It's dangerous
3. It pays little
4. People need to be tricked and threatened to do it. Most would never do it unless they are truly desperate
When it becomes legal, the customers for this product increases a hundred fold
