We ve seen all sorts of crazy things happen over the past year and a half. A pandemic that s shut everything down, marijuana becoming more and more legal, magic mushrooms decriminalized in Ann Arbor, and now one Michigan county is taking a stand for those who perform consensual sex work. Now here s the thing, it s something we all think about in the privacy of our minds, but when someone gets caught we act like they re an awful person, or slam people in the news as if we don t all go through the motions in our mind of having wants.
The fact is it s none of anyone s business how a person makes their money as long as nobody is getting hurt, and to be honest, there s no shame in it and we need to start normalizing that. Washtenaw County s new prosecutor Eli Savit just announced he would no longer charge criminal cases involving marijuana, magic mushrooms, and will now no longer issue criminal charges relating to sex work.
