Beitrag von Aoife »

RUHAMA, die kirchliche Dachorganisation, deren Mitgliedorden unter dem Deckmantel christlicher Nächstenliebe irische SW seit nahezu 100 Jahren massivst materiell und sexuell ausbeuten und sich die widerlichsten Perversionen haben zu Schulden kommen lassen, sehen keine andere Möglichkeit mehr sich gegen die irische SW-Organisation TOBL zu wehren als in der Schmutzpresse glatte Lügen über sie zu verbreiten.

Diese Panik vor SW die für sich selbst sprechen wollen, beweist dass man noch immer auf Ausbeutung und Schädigung aus ist.

The Ugly Face of Bullying

Ireland’s religious anti sex work organisation, Ruhama, were in party spirits on Saturday night, gleefully tweeting tabloid journalist Eamon Dillon to let him know how much they were looking forward to his article about ‘the sex worker internet campaign backed by a convicted pimp’. And as the Sunday World was published this morning with an article about Turn Off the Blue Light (TOBL) in it, Ruhama could not contain their jubilation and went into a tweeting frenzy denigrating TOBL.

As far as we are aware, the article in question is not currently available online, though according to Eamon Dillon on twitter this morning it will be on the Sunday World website tomorrow. If it is not, Ruhama will probably scan it in and make it available on their website.

We know that there are at least two different versions of this article, presumably as there are different editions of the Sunday World with slightly different content in them, but the full extent of the accusations made about TOBL within these articles is, to the best of our knowledge, as follows:

[1] The headline of the article is ‘Vice king’s bid to get his hookers legalised’, or alternatively ‘Sleaze to meet you’, and both versions of the article that we have seen name and picture a convicted brothel keeper and go on to claim that TOBL was set up and is backed by this individual.

[2] Referring to the recent article TOBL published about brothel keeping, it is alleged that TOBL ‘conveniently’ left a number of named convicted brothel keepers out of its research herein.

As we have always clearly stated, TOBL started out of discussions between a number of people on an escort website — a place where sex workers talk — in February 2011, and our association of independent sex workers was formed and took over the Turn Off the Blue Light campaign from that website on 23 March 2011. To go from this to saying TOBL was set up by a convicted brothel keeper and is backed by a convicted brothel keeper is perverse.

You can connect TOBL with the convicted brothel keeper at hand if you jump from TOBL to the escort website TOBL started out on, then a company linked with that website, then a person previously linked to that company. This is what has been done here for the purposes of attempting to discredit TOBL by associating it with a convicted brothel keeper.

It’s rather like a game of ‘5 clicks to Jesus’. If you haven’t heard of this game, it is played on Wikipedia, and based on the popular hypothesis — known as ‘six degrees of separation’ — holding that any two people in the world are separated by a chain of no more than six acquaintances. If you want to try it go to thewikigame.com/5-clicks-to-jesus and see if you can get from a random Wikipedia page selected for you to the Jesus Wikipedia page in 5 links or less.

If journalism is reduced to a game of ‘5 clicks to Jesus’ then TOBL can surely be linked to many people. Perhaps next week Eamon Dillon could hop from men who buy sex are bad people, to convicted rapist and suspected serial killer Larry Murphy is a bad person, to all men who buy sex are as dangerous as serial killers. Oh wait actually, somebody else already got that scoop.

We could probably have some fun playing ‘5 clicks to Jesus’ on Ruhama, but we have more integrity than to stoop to that level, which brings us to the second allegation made, the accusation that TOBL deliberately left a number of named convicted brothel keepers out of some recent research we conducted in order to draw false conclusions. We strongly refute this allegation.

Our recent article on brothel keeping looked at the criminal offence of brothel keeping , Central Statistics Office Ireland (CSO) crime statistics for this offence, and also included our own research into people convicted of brothel keeping offences. As clearly stated, we restricted our own research to cases where the year the offence would have been recorded was 2008 – 2011 (to 27 July).

Depending on the version of the Sunday World article you read, it is alleged that we ‘conveniently’ left 3 or 5 persons convicted of brothel keeping out of our research. These people were named as M.M., M.S., T.J.C., T.L. and C.O’L. (In line with our original article, we are only naming people by initial. The reason for this is that, as a sex worker organisation, not causing harm to sex workers is integral to us, and as most of the persons in the research were sex workers and being named in the public domain can cause harm to sex workers, we decided to only refer to all persons by initials.)

M.M., T.L. and C.O’L were all not included in our research as their offences were recorded prior to 2008.

T.J.C. was not included because the offence was recorded in Wales, not Ireland.

M.S. was included in our research.

A point that may cause confusion is that, sometimes, the year an offence is recorded and the year a conviction for that offence is obtained is not the same, due to the time it has taken for the case to go through the legal system. An offence of brothel keeping can be recorded one year, but a conviction may not be obtained until the following year or even years later. In compiling our research we found cases like this and decided to base our research on the year offences were recorded, both because we wanted to look at recent years, and also because, to the best of our understanding and following communications with the CSO, this is how the CSO publishes it’s statistics.

The allegation that TOBL conveniently left some persons convicted of brothel keeping out of our recent research into persons convicted of brothel keeping in Ireland is completely untrue.

It is a shame that sex workers cannot speak up without being attacked like this by nasty bullies who are determined to try to stop sex workers having any voice.

It is no surprise to us that Ruhama are attacking us. Ruhama is a religious organisation, the founders and trustees of which are the Sisters of Our Lady of Charity and the Good Shepherd Sisters, two religious orders who have a very long history of causing harm to sex workers whilst outwardly claiming to be helping them. Of course sex workers speaking up for themselves upsets Ruhama.

Eamon Dillon is a tabloid journalist and a good ally of Ruhama’s. In 2009 Ruhama awarded Eamon Dillon the one and only ever ‘Ruhama Award in Journalism’ to thank him. There is a photo of Sister Gerardine Rowley of the Good Shepherd Sisters, who is Communications & Policy Manager for Ruhama, handing Eamon Dillon the award here.

Presseerklärung der Sexworker gegen "Schwedisches Prostitutionsverbotsgesetz" in der Zeitung abgedruckt:

Prostitution law change planned



The Irish Times - Friday, October 21, 2011

Sir, – Sex Workers Alliance Ireland welcomes Conor Lally’s article (Home News, October 18th) highlighting the difficulties attached to introducing the Swedish-style law on prostitution which would criminalise the buyers of sexual services while giving immunity to the sellers.

Evidence from Swedish sex workers shows that the law has put them at much greater physical risk from dangerous clients; they have less time to assess the client as the deal takes place very hurriedly; genuine clients are afraid of being arrested, demands for unprotected sex have increased and there is more violence. (Purchasing Sexual Services in Sweden and the Netherlands: Legal Regulation and Experiences, Norwegian Ministry of Justice and the Police, (2004); Prostitution in Sweden, 2003).

Furthermore, research from Sweden to the UNAIDs group shows that 18 per cent of street sex workers are not using condoms . In addition, street prostitution has returned to two-thirds of its pre-criminalisation level in Stockholm (Prostitution in Sweden, Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare 2003). Therefore, if this law does not work in Sweden, why would Ireland consider introducing it?

Ireland should study interventions and policies in other countries, for example Queensland, Australia and New Zealand; or the initiatives trialled in Liverpool and supported by Merseyside Police and Liverpool City Council to address crimes against sex workers; police treating crimes against sex workers as hate crime and the role of a specialist independent sexual violence adviser (to support sex workers who have been victims of crime). – Yours, etc,

TERESA WHITAKER,

Secretary,

Peinlich: Freier tappen Undercover-Polizistinnen in die Falle

Im Mittelalter gab es den Pranger, heute gibt es die Zeitung. Einundzwanzig Männer im Alter von Mitte zwanzig bis Mitte sechzig bekannten sich diese Woche vor dem Gericht in Limerick für schuldig, zwischen dem 11. November und 4. Dezember mit Prostituierten Kontakt aufgenommen und um entsprechende Dienste nachgefragt zu haben. Pech für die Herren, dass es sich bei den vermeintlichen Prostituierten um verdeckt operierende Polizeibeamtinnen gehandelt hatte. Zur Strafe fanden die Freier nun ihre Namen in der Zeitung wieder, samt Angabe des Alters und des Wohnortes. Peinlich, peinlich. Da waren die 470 Euro, die sie zusätzlich zur Strafe an eine wohltätige Einrichtung zahlen mussten, das geringste Übel. Einer der Männer bat vor Gericht um einen Pflichtverteidiger. Er sei Sozialhilfeempfänger und könne sich einen Anwalt nicht leisten, erklärte er. Der Richter hatte kein Einsehen: Wer sich eine Prostituierte leisten kann, entschied er, kann sich auch einen Anwalt leisten. (Quelle: Irish Times).
Und noch ein Nachschlag aus eigener Quelle (Irland ist ein kleines Land) für die Englischprofis: Einer der ertappten Männer ist zufällig der Direktor einer Schule in Ennis. Jetzt nennt man ihn den “Vice Principal” . . .

Magdalene Laundries (1200-1996) - forced labour for prostitutes since 1700

www.amazon.com/dp/0786444460 (2010)
http://books.google.de/books?id=GIRJkAbmaiEC

A "theory of the colonization of the female worker...by the church as a [I. Wallerstein] world system institution"...





Schon aelter: UN CAT (Convention Against Torture):

"21. The Committee is gravely concerned at the failure by the State party to protect girls and women who were involuntarily confined between 1922 and 1996 in the Magdalene Laundries, by failing to regulate and inspect their operations, where it is alleged that physical, emotional abuses and other ill-treatment were committed, amounting to breaches of the Convention. The Committee also expresses grave concern at the failure by the State party to institute prompt, independent and thorough investigations into the allegations of ill-treatment perpetrated on girls and women in the Magdalene Laundries (arts. 2, 12, 13, 14 and 16).

The Committee recommends that the State party institute prompt, independent and thorough investigations into all complaints of torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment that were allegedly committed in the Magdalene Laundries and, in appropriate cases, prosecute and punish the perpetrators with penalties commensurate with the gravity of the offences committed, and ensure that all victims obtain redress and have an enforceable right to compensation, including the means for as full rehabilitation as possible.

Desperate Irish women turn to working in sex industry as economy tanks

Irish women, from respectable backgrounds, are turning to prostitution to pay the bills during the recession. Those forced to sell their bodies for cash include former business people, stay-at-home moms, and recent college graduates.

Linda Latham, of the Women's Health Service, in Dublin, said, “No matter what side of the tracks they come from, I have never met a happy prostitute in my 12 years working in this business…In the '80s and '90s, we saw mainly heroin addicts but now across the board we are seeing educated women who are so strapped for cash they are resorting to it out of dire economic need.

"We see a lot of women with degrees and qualifications who just can't get work."

Ich möchte versuchen, dazu möglichst objektiv Stellung zu beziehen:

Dass eine Mitarbeiterin einer Hilfsorganisation in 12 Jahren Tätigkeit keine zufriedene Prostituierte getroffen hat, mag sich natürlich auch dadurch erklären, dass in der Irischen, durch den Verräter Eamon de Valeria erzrömisch-katholisch geprägten Irischen Gesellschaft kaum eine einigermaßen Zufriedene sich bei einer Hilfsorganisation outen würde.

Trotzdem bleibt natürlich kaum zu bezweifeln, dass durch wirtschaftliche Probleme einige (viele?) Frauen zur Prostitution kommen, die das nicht wirklich wollen, eher etwas anderes machen würden, wenn sie die Chance dazu hätten.

An sich ein Unding, das nur durch eine radikale Änderung der gesamten Gesellschaftsstruktur behoben werden könnte - aber diesen großen Rahmen einmal ausgeblendet im engeren Sinn vielleicht auch eine Chance uns zu solidarisieren und endlich gemeinsam für Menschenrechte für alle einzutreten.

Ich denke das es europaweit stark zunehmend ist, das viele Frauen in der Sexarbeit ihre Chance sehen ihren Existenz zu sichern.Leider steigt vom Staat die Repressalien genauso die Prostitution einzudämmern. Aber vielleicht und ich hoffe es,liebe Aoife, das der zu Zeit auf unsere Branche zunehmenden Druck, nach dem physikalischen Gesetz funktioniert: Druck erzeugt Gegendruck.
Ich sehe schon hier bei der jüngeren Generation von Sexworker, das sie sich viel mehr mit der politischen und rechtlichen Situation auseinander setzen als ich es in meine Anfangszeit je getan habe.Lag auch daran,das mann uns stillschweigend geduldet hat und nur bei gravierenden Straftaten,die Polizei aktiv würde. Hier liegt meine ganze Hoffnung drin, das es klick macht, denn noch ist nicht genug geballte Power der Vereingung unter uns zu erkennen.
Aber ich gleube fest daran,das es sich entwickelt wird und uns die gleichen Menschenrechte zuerkennt, anstatt sie dauernd zu missachten.

Liebe Grüsse, Fraences

My mother died of 'slave related injuries' says Magdalene Laundries daughter
Samantha Long tweets her mum’s life of cruelty and abuse in laundry

By PATRICK COUNIHAN, IrishCentral Staff Writer

A Dublin woman has succeeded in her attempts to get the media to focus on Magdalene Laundries by trending on Twitter days ahead of the publication of a government report into the scandal.

Samantha Long’s mother was taken into the Laundries when she was just two years of age.The laundries were operated by religious orders and used unmarried mothers and their offspring as cheap labor.

Her daughter’s tweets revealed that she left the Catholic church run Laundries 49 years later, in a coffin after dying of ‘slave related injuries.’

Abused in the past and abandoned in the present

JAMES M SMITH

Opinion: She remains anonymous by choice. She values her privacy above all. She lives alone and never married. She attends daily Mass. She will never again live in Ireland. She celebrated her 78th birthday recently. She is a survivor of the Magdalene laundries.

Her mother died when she was seven. At 14, her father remarried but she and a younger sister were unwelcome in the new family household, the only home they ever knew. Poverty was her only crime.

She was taken to the Good Shepherd convent in New Ross, her younger sister sent by train to the congregation’s Limerick house. The Good Shepherds managed industrial schools for children at both locations and a reformatory school for girls in Limerick.

But the two sisters were put to work in the Magdalene laundry with its population of adult women workers. For the next five years she washed society’s dirty laundry and received no pay. When she refused to work the nuns cut her hair as punishment. The hair grew back but to this day the loss of her education angers her. To her, it was a prison in all but name. There was no inspector, no child welfare officer. She was abandoned and no one cared.

Sixty years later this woman lives with the stigma and shame attached to these institutions. These are the indelible stains on her life.

And, in her case and others, there are life-long material consequences to having spent time in the Magdalene laundry. Her application to the Residential Institutions Redress Board was rejected. The 10 laundries were not among the institutions covered, thus her application was deemed “ineligible”, and the review board refused her appeal.

Enda Kenny makes emotional apology to Magdalene women

MARY MINIHAN and JOANNE HUNT

Taoiseach Enda Kenny apologised "unreservedly" yesterday to those who spent time in the Magdalene laundries and said the Government would establish a fund to assist the women within three months.

Mr Kenny’s voice choked with emotion as he concluded his address to the Dáil when former senator Martin McAleese’s report on the institutions was discussed in a rare non-partisan atmosphere.

“I, as Taoiseach, on behalf of the State, the Government and our citizens, deeply regret and apologise unreservedly to all those women for the hurt that was done to them, and for any stigma they suffered, as a result of the time they spent in a Magdalene laundry.”

...

Vollständiger Artikel mit Videomaterial: http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/bre ... king3.html

Anzumerken wäre, dass der irische Staat sich keineswegs einmalige Verbrechen zu Schulden hat kommen lassen, eine grundsätzlich "mittelalterliche" Einstellung gezeigt hätte, die jetzt im Rahmen der Modernisierung und europäischen Einigung nicht mehr aufrechterhalten werden könnte ...

Im Gegenteil, Irland stellt durch diese Vorgehensweise den modernsten aller Staaten dar, an dem andere sich ein Beispiel nehmen müssen. Wann wird es beispielsweise in Deutschland oder Österreich eine glaubhafte Entschuldigung und materielle Wiedergutmachung geben für all diejenigen Frauen, die durch staatliche Kollaboration mit lebensfeindlichen Kräften der judeochristlichen "Moral" zu Schaden gekommen sind? Bisher beobachten wir in diesen Staaten noch immer den Versuch diese Verbrechen totzuschweigen oder gar fortzuführen, in der irrigen Annahme der "Gesetzgeber" könnte Unrecht für "legal" und somit rechtmäßig erklären.

Human Trafficking and Exploitation Bill

Beitrag von Marc of Frankfurt »

Zwischen-Erfolg gegen Freierkriminalisierung:


Prostitution law proposals slammed

Criminalising paying for sex in Northern Ireland could threaten the safety of prostitutes, Justice Minister David Ford said.



The clause in Lord Maurice Morrow's draft Stormont legislation [Human Trafficking and Exploitation Bill] would be difficult to enforce and the police do not support it, the minister added.

If a prosecution was undertaken the woman risked being intimidated by the purchaser of sex for going to the authorities.

Lord Morrow has insisted a new prostitution law is vital to effectively tackle human trafficking, arguing that outlawing payment would simplify the law and make it easier to secure convictions that send a clear message to offenders.

Mr Ford told the Assembly: "I am not prepared to support a proposal which might not work and which might take risks with the lives and well-being of other vulnerable individuals caught up in prostitution."

...

Mr Ford said: "The prosecution service sees difficulties in evidencing successful cases. Many of the key voluntary groups also have reservations, spelt out to me in meetings over the summer. As Justice Minister I cannot ignore these voices."

...

Lord Morrow's proposed legislation, the Human Trafficking and Exploitation Bill, contains 19 clauses updating Northern Ireland's laws on prostitution and trafficking.

It will be considered by an Assembly committee.
