I just noticed this but have not read it. For those who get the paper edition or read it online, what do you make of that article?
What’s the URL?

As the Caterpillar said to Alice, exactically. There are valid feminist objections to some conditions in which prostitution occurs and against any form of coerced sex — whether for money or not — but we all should have the right to use or body so long as we are not hurting anyone. That applies to everyone, but is especially applicable to women whose right to do so is often denied or obstructed.
