The Consequences of Criminalizing Sex Work—with Kaytlin Bailey - EP245
We criminalize sex work under the guise of protecting people, particularly women and children, from exploitation.
But what are the true consequences of law enforcement’s efforts to prevent human trafficking? What if the fastest way to trap someone in a life of prostitution is to arrest them for it?
Have you considered the broad spectrum of reasons why someone might choose to be a sex worker? Or purchase sexual services?
Kaytlin Bailey is Founder and Executive Director at Old Pros, a nonprofit working to decriminalize sex work, and Host of The Oldest Profession Podcast.
As a stand-up comic, sex worker rights advocate and writer, Kaytlin is an irreverent expert on the history of sex work and a leader in ending the shame associated with ‘the oldest profession.’
On this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, Kaytlin joins Anjel to explain how her organization helps people release the shame around sexuality and sex work.
Kaytlin walks us through the consequences of criminalizing sex work, describing how the same tools we use to censor sex workers are used to deny access to abortion or reproductive sexual health care.
Listen in for Kaytlin’s vision of a future where sex work is neither illegal or shameful and learn why legislation that criminalizes sex work does more harm than good.

Customer Reviews
So so good!
Inspiring and enjoyable. I love hearing the stories of so many incredible women and their journeys.
So refreshing
This show and the host so an incredible job of being candid and real. The issues discussed are so relevant but often ones that others tend to brush over with a rosy hue. I am so refreshed by the real advice and actionable takeaways I can use immediately after listening. Don’t miss it!
Sunitha blew my mind.
I was listening to the episode with Sunitha Sandeep (episode 235) when I realized that she might just be a kindred spirit. I agree with her in so many ways! But I also learned a few things from the interview.
