Summary
No one defends trafficking; few defend inequality. Prostitution is not like this. Some support it. Many believe it politically correct to tolerate it and oppose doing anything effective about it. Most assume that, even if not desirable, prostitution is necessary, harmless, and inevitable. On my analysis, views about prostitution structure the debate on trafficking, whether prostitution is distinguished from trafficking or seen as a form of it, whether seen as a human right or a denial of human rights, and whether seen as a form of sexual freedom or its ultimate violation.
