All,

I am curious from a feminist perspective what is the difference between criminalizing sexual activity between consenting adults where there is an exchange of financial compensation and criminalizing the performing of abortions where a doctor or medical professional also receives some type of financial compensation.

I will note as I understand that groups like Feminists for Life take the position that they are both one and the same. Curious what people like "Pondering" and some of the more anti sex work Babblers think of this juxtaposition?

You've also posted this under Feminism, which is where I wrote my reply.

Helpful hint, but don't double-post topics, as it messes up the discussion, with some people posting on one thread, and others on another.

Thanks. I am trying to figure out how to delete this post here. Anyways anyone interested in posting comments should do so in the Feminism group instead.

Not sure you need to delete it, as long as it's made clear that the main conversation is taking place in the Feminism forum.
