PS: If it was posted somewhere, my apologies. Please move it into the thread

PS1: I found some comments are really funny. My favorite is "canadaawakening" because of his handle and the content he is writing

Where is the dignity for the freewill of another human person if she think she has the right to use the whip to force and coerce others to do her will and her bidding? Where is the equality between partners? Where is the respect for the dignity and the freewill of the other?

Even in her interview, she reads out her statement without giving the interviewer a chance to get a word in edge-wise to ask questions or to engage with her. It is either "her way" or the "highway."

She cannot be engaged with or questioned by another equal partner to develop a real and a meaningful relationship. She uses the whip to impose herself on others. Who gave her this right unless it is some immature child?

In answer to "canadaawaking" let me paraphrase then Justice Minister John Turner when he tabled a bill to legalize homosexuality in the 1970's.

"You sir might find getting whipped and poked demeaning, morally offensive and maybe even repungant but should those people be criminalized?" Whatever happened to "live and let live"?

I attended the court hearing today of the Crown, I am not sure how it will turn out they still have more to debate tomorrow. I hope it's in favor of sex workers.
I heard one of the Crown lawyers interviewed. He said that not making criminals of people engaged in consensual adult "wambo minki" behind closed doors would make Canada a haven for "sex tourists" (as if that is a bad thing). We already promote Toronto as a "gay friendly" city for homo tourists so why not make Canada a sex friendly country for heteros as well?

I guess her comments are meant as a joke. It would be funny the first time but eye-rolling after that.

I would refuse to discuss anything with someone brandishing a whip, imagine if every lobbyist carried one.
