About this Quote

Cynthia Payne was a British whorehouse caretaker who was notoriously detained in 1978. In this quote, she is describing her election manifesto, in which she proposed the legalisation of prostitution. She is suggesting that if hooking were to be legalised, it would certainly permit individuals like her to operate in the sector without anxiety of prosecution. This quote mirrors her belief that hooking ought to be decriminalised, as it would supply a secure and also regulated environment for sex workers. Payne was a vocal supporter for the civil liberties of sex workers, and her quote highlights her commitment to enhancing the lives of those in the sector. Her words are still appropriate today, as many countries are still debating the legalisation of prostitution.
