What are the two main challenges that the sex workers you work with face

Uno de los principales retos es que no nos reconozcan como lo que somos trabajadoras sexuales esto nos vulnera mucho ya que nos niegan nuestros derechos a trabajar libremente en las calles y en otros espacios donde ejercemos el trabajo sexual, también el hostigamiento por parte de los miembros de seguridad que nos violentan y nos agreden y otros entes abolicionistas que deslegitiman nuestro discurso
