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.
Trying to look into details behind the stat now.
Well the source it cites for that number doesn't even include that statistic and it's from 1996.
It looks like it comes from this article https://academic.oup.com/aje/article/159/8/778/91471
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**"
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.
prostitutes are dropping dead like flies
my god, it's like they're charging into no man's land
they're cannon fodder for lonely dicks!
yeah if they only look at 100 hookers, then extrapolate that.... yeah
lol
seems like that study took a week to complete
Well it was about 2k hookers but regardless it's clearly not a thorough or very useful stat.
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
a lot of it has to do with bond repayments
govt keeps offering bonds for some reason
which is crazy
i mean its so easy not to... i dont see what sort of lobbyist is forcing them to keep issuing bonds, beyond bond investors
bond investors could easily see more profit elsewhere

HOLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS
Watch your Six. Things are getting weird π«
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 β60s and 1970s were horrible
35 years might be a better question
Venezuela 0%
maybe 30 years or 25 years
You had fucking race roits in the 90s
Just letting off some steam π€·πΏ
Let's go back to the 80's!

@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.
Also coud see the LA race roit live
I wanna be in the 50s so I can wear a hat and pinch womens bottoms
