Again though, I do think that if the goal is respecting sex workers’ rights to privacy and respect, I really think they should just not have tours there at all. It’s not a zoo...
This is where we disagree. Women working the windows who also want their "privacy" protected are really demanding to have it both ways. And it's beyond their right to claim.
The whole reason they work in the windows is because they want a public interface that allows them to maximize the return on their working hours. No making appointments or traveling on outcalls or waiting for hours in a private brothel. Opportunities for impulse buyers. etc.
Those are the advantages of working in public. But by definition public space is not private space. Private space is where you get privacy. Not public space.
Sex workers who want privacy on the job should not work in public. It's an option that they are free to choose or not. But they don't get to make privacy demands on people in public.
