Well done you. Uni was an exciting time of discussion and learning for me. While I am angry with these immature and intolerant students, the fault lies with the supine universities who have not stood up for free speech. They are failing in their most basic duties to encourage learning and enquiry - what has happened to these people?
-"The Nordic model decriminalises those in prostitution" this is inaccurate: the so-called Nordic model only decriminalises it for nationals, not for foreigners (the very ones who are most likely to be trafficked). Additionally, renting to a prostitute is considered pimping under the Nordic model which makes it hard for them to avoid homelessness.
-The original source for the murder statistics is a counting of newspaper headlines. It is not based on any sort of official statistics nor on any studies.
Actual studies, such as those in medical journals (e.g. https://www.thelancet.com/infographics/HIV-and-sex-workers) find that legalising sex work (instead of partially decriminalising) can lead to a decrease in HIV spread and save lives.
-It is not just her comments regarding gender identity that are controversial: her comments on bisexuality as a "trend" and her view that being gay is a choice are also controversial.
