I DESERVE TO BE SAFE I deserve to be safe whether I am giving it away or selling it. I deserve to be safe whether I am a nun in a convent or a street corner hooker in a run-down inner-city neighborhood. I deserve to be safe whether I am saving it for marriage or selling it at a price you can or cannot afford. If I am selling it I deserve to be safe regardless of just how much of it I am selling - be it only strip-tease, you-can-look-but-don't-touch, or good, old fashioned half-and-half, honey. If I am selling it I deserve to be safe whether I am selling it to one sugar-daddy or as many takers as I can catch. If I am selling it I deserve to be safe whether I am selling it in the classiest brothel in the county or on the street where the cheapest hos in town work. If I am selling it I deserve to be safe whether I am the health food earth mother goddess whore or the most desperate, strung-out junkie toss-up. Anarchist though I am I believe that I deserve police protection whether I am getting paid to teach your child kindergarten or getting paid to suck your dick. I deserve police protection whether I am your wife or the hooker you see when you tell your wife you're out watching the game with the boys. I deserve police protection regardless of whether I give it away or sell it because I deserve to be safe. I deserve respect whether I am your mother who nursed you and changed your diapers or the whore you pray your mother doesn't know you're with. I deserve your mother's respect too. I deserve respect whether I am in a nurse's uniform or a stripper's pasties or a hooker's mini-skirt. I deserve respect for the hard work I do whether I pay my rent with money earned working in the factory or working on the street. I deserve respect for the hard work I do whether I buy my groceries with money earned cleaning your house, building your house, or fucking you. My life is precious. My life is precious whether I am the daughter you cherish or the hooker you fuck who is only as old as your daughter. My life is precious whether I comfort crying children or comfort the sick and dying or comfort you sexually and emotionally. My life is precious whether I am the wife who slept with only one man her entire life or the hooker who loves her job. My contribution to society is valuable whether I am cooking you meals, engineering solar power, creating beautiful works of art, or giving you sexual pleasure. My contribution to society is valuable whether I am dancing in the ballet or in the sleaziest strip-club in town. I deserve to be safe. I deserve police protection. I deserve RESPECT. My life is precious and my contribution to society is valuable. Don't be surprised when I EXPECT safety and protection and RESPECT for I know my life is precious and my contribution to society is valuable. The souls and lives and dreams of 100,000 beaten, jailed and murdered prostitutes are righteously avenged and finally freed with this hooker's expectation of SAFETY and PROTECTION and RESPECT, and my knowledge THAT MY LIFE IS PRECIOUS and my knowledge THAT MY CONTRIBUTION TO SOCIETY IS VALUABLE. Give this gift to yourself, beloved sister, share this gift with our family. With this gift of loving self-respect righteously avenge finally free the souls and lives and dreams of a weary world of beaten, jailed and murdered prostitutes. May we all live free in the glory and joy of life that every human being deserves. -----Daisy Anarchy
