Today we want to talk about how we can all take a stance against the commercial sex industry and how it exploits. This is an important topic because too many of us see this problem as something outside of our control—as if it's someone else's problem or something that can't be fixed. But in reality, we all have a part in creating change. And we can do so through small actions like boycotting strip clubs as patrons and choosing not to watch pornography.

Let's talk about why it's important to take a stance against exploitation:

• First of all, it's basic human decency. Every person is unique and has value beyond just their utility for others' gain.

• Second of all, there are some very real dangers associated with commodifying people—like increased rates of sexual assault against those in the industry and trafficking victims who have no means of protecting themselves from being exploited by those who would take advantage of them for monetary gain.

• And third… well… let's just say that it feels really good to know you're doing something good for yourself AND for others!
