    The Sex Workers Education and Advocacy Taskforce, which has the unfortunate acronym of “SWEAT,” has issued a call for greater tolerance of those that trade in the world’s oldest profession. This comes after a stabbing on Wetton Road in Wynberg, where two sex workers were attacked, leaving one dead.

    SWEAT issued a statement yesterday, urging people to understand that sex workers also have rights as human citizens. The attack was was on two men dressed as women, who are said to have been very popular in the Wynberg area.

    For us it’s about time that people start to engage. We’re not necessarily saying that people should agree. Our struggle is not about whether people agree with sex workers or not, it’s about accepting that just because you don’t like sex workers doesn’t mean then that you should not grant them their citizen rights – which everybody has regardless of who you are.

    Yesterday, a seminar discussing the difficulties faced by sex workers was held by the group was also held.
