Elena Jeffreys, president of the Australian Sex Workers Association, was one of dozens of people to complain to Facebook. She condemned the site for inciting violence against prostitutes. The 18,000 members of the Facebook group included a handful of people claiming to be sex workers who had joined the group while it was still live in order to voice their disapproval.
“As a hooker, I wish I could find this site funny,” one person posted. “It’s about as funny as black people being hung from trees, Jewish people burning in ovens and kids being raped. Not funny in this society!”
Other pages that appear to advocate violence against prostitutes are currently live on Facebook. Many of them are linked to the computer game Grand Theft Auto, in which players can run over prostitutes in cars.
