It looks like the number that gets passed around is 204 for every 100,000 prostitutes is killed per year. But then this same chart says that an estimated 1 in 10 men has purchased a prostitute.

2018-11-24 05:40:37 UTC  

Trying to look into details behind the stat now.

2018-11-24 05:43:02 UTC  

Well the source it cites for that number doesn't even include that statistic and it's from 1996.

2018-11-24 05:45:21 UTC  

It looks like it comes from this article https://academic.oup.com/aje/article/159/8/778/91471

2018-11-24 05:46:03 UTC  

Which states itself in the opening "They identified 117 definite or probable deaths and had sufficient information on 100 to calculate a **crude mortality rate**"

2018-11-24 05:46:47 UTC  

n = 1,969

I'm as opposed to dead hookers as the next guy but this is obviously not a good stat to be parroting.

2018-11-24 05:51:27 UTC  

prostitutes are dropping dead like flies

2018-11-24 05:51:34 UTC  

my god, it's like they're charging into no man's land

2018-11-24 05:51:45 UTC  

they're cannon fodder for lonely dicks!

2018-11-24 05:52:55 UTC  

yeah if they only look at 100 hookers, then extrapolate that.... yeah

2018-11-24 05:52:55 UTC  

lol

2018-11-24 05:53:15 UTC  

seems like that study took a week to complete

2018-11-24 05:53:41 UTC  

Well it was about 2k hookers but regardless it's clearly not a thorough or very useful stat.

2018-11-24 05:54:11 UTC  

The most you can say is that it ought to be investigated more.

in other news, debt:GDP is 104% in USA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWCoDORgs3A

2018-11-24 05:57:01 UTC  

a lot of it has to do with bond repayments

2018-11-24 05:57:21 UTC  

govt keeps offering bonds for some reason

2018-11-24 05:57:24 UTC  

which is crazy

2018-11-24 05:57:47 UTC  

i mean its so easy not to... i dont see what sort of lobbyist is forcing them to keep issuing bonds, beyond bond investors

2018-11-24 05:57:52 UTC  

but whatever

2018-11-24 05:58:15 UTC  

bond investors could easily see more profit elsewhere

Imagine being stupid enough to live in the US and think life is worse now than it was the year Martin Luther King Jr and Bobby Kennedy were assassinated
The 60s and 70s sucked. I can at least understand some white guy thinking the 50s were a golden age due to union manufacturing work but the late β€˜60s and 1970s were horrible

35 years might be a better question

2018-11-24 09:59:31 UTC  

Venezuela 0%

maybe 30 years or 25 years

You had fucking race roits in the 90s

@franti The place I live is where all the California hippies moved when they got old. Kids I grew up with would talk about how they were born in the wrong decade and they should have been born in the 50s so they could see Jimi Hendrix live. Liberalism is a disease.

2018-11-24 10:37:49 UTC  

Also coud see the LA race roit live

I wanna be in the 50s so I can wear a hat and pinch womens bottoms
