Thought: If prostitution by choice is illegal then women do not have ownership over their bodies.

To truly have ownership of something means to have freedom to do with that thing as you wish. To have self-ownership is to have the freedom to do with our minds and bodies as we wish.

If a women is not free to be a prostitute if she wishes then that means she is not free to choose what to do with her body; her body does not belong to her, it belongs to the state that denies her that freedom.

There's not much freedom in prostitution though. I totally get your theory but the nature of sex work I've seen through work is world's away from liberation and autonomy. Anyway you always make me think about issues which is very inspiring.
