‘Convicted’ prostitute? What the fuck is this phrasing?

I failed to see why there's a controversy here

Something that bugs me: why does the headline/article seem so focused on her being a mother? Lots of people have kids. Shouldn't it say teacher or woman?

Edit: she wasn't a teacher but served on an advisory schoolboard council. I didn't read the article.

This why you should always have a personal email and work email.

I can't figure out why the fact that she's a mom is the first thing in the headline.

[-] Waldowal@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago

It's to shame her for having sex at least once.

I’m trying to figure out what her being a mom has anything to do with the story. She has kids, who gives a shit? In this country, you’re forced to do it, so what’s the point of calling someone out for it?

Shame. How dare a MoThEr engage in something so base as sex work? It's written that way explicitly to shame her.

I hope she reads this.

Use the notoriety to write a book for teenagers. Intelligent parents will buy it, and smart kids will seek it out.

It's not illegal to work a 2nd job!?!

So much for a skills-based education model.

[-] wick@lemm.ee 17 points 2 years ago

Wait... Is there a difference between a prostitute and an escort? The headline makes it sound like she stopped being the former and is currently the latter.
