💜 This afternoon, the College of Journalists has witnessed a talk about prostitution and feminism by Anna Farran, focused on explaining and detailing the regulations and casuistry that are found in our country on the subject in question. Prostitution offers impunity to consumers, allowing them to act without significant legal or moral consequences. This impunity legitimizes the commercialization of the body of women, turning their privacy into a consumer product.

💼 With a practical and theoretical approach, Anna Farran has shared with all the attendees data extracted from her final degree project and has opened a debate on the thought and philosophy of each of them. In this context, it is crucial to question the structures that perpetuate this exploitation and to work for a fairer and more equitable society, where the dignity and rights of all people are respected and guaranteed.

👁️‍🗨️ Anna Farran presents with all of us her personal reflection:

First of all, I think it is very important that associations with such weight not only commit themselves to the fight against the sexual exploitation of women, but also invest space and time in demanding it.

It is vital that, among all of us, we change the social paradigm that affirms us as mercantilizable bodies and understands that women’s rights and sexuality are not negotiable. The violence and oppression of prostitution must be recognised at institutional level, but it is even more urgent to work in the social and cultural sphere to eradicate the idea that women’s sexuality can be bought.

Faced with the sexual exploitation of thousands of girls and women daily, the only possible response to protect us is to fight together towards abolitionism.
