Convicted working girls jailed if they do not attend counselling
Will jailing prostitutes help anyone?
It will act as a deterrent for some women,but I wonder what effect it will have in the long run.
I have my doubts about involuntary counselling. I wonder how it can be of use, when it is forced for sexworkers, and then there is a threat of imprisonment if they do not attend.
