Gender Ideologists' Crusade against the Nordic Model - With the passage of the Sex purchase ban in Israel, a lobby of anti-Nordic Model organizations emerged. Among them were disproportionally numerous trans rights NGOs. At first, I was surprised. After all, the sex industry kills trans people, so how can you be a trans activist without being an abolitionist? But as I watched and learned more, I realized that this is a phenomenon that exists worldwide. Today I am here to discuss the underlying reasons for the contradiction between gender ideology and sex trade abolitionism and how it is reflected in our local struggle.
Bio: Luba Fein is an abolitionist activist promoting the Nordic Model in her country, Israel, where it came into force recently. She is also a volunteer for a UK based feminist NGO, FILIA.

I'm so glad Luba pointed out that often it's privileged academics who are pro-prostitution. That is the epitome of a luxury belief, a belief held by the upper classes at the expense of the lower classes.

Very important panel, thank you Luba!

Women rights are human rights, not to be confused with individualistic desires. Great job! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
