I'm sorry for being late to comment on this.

I'm pretty conservative on most things. I believe in small government, secure borders, strong national defence, balanced budgets (as much as posible), right to life, and the death penalty. True, there are a lot of conservatives who are homoghobic and transphobic. However, I don't remember asking them or anyone else to approve what I do.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
And how often do I turn down an opportunity to show my Irish temper?

Slavery in the US. I wonder how many transsexuals are forced into this situation.

Na.
Ts women are vulnerable but in very different ways.
Even early transitioners {think late teens on}
are very different to young women.
Firstly, to get where we are, we either have a big support network
or we do it on our own, which despite being vulnerable,
makes us very streetwise.

A ts needs a lot of maintenance stuff just to look hot,
in a way that people-smugglers would know nothing about:
Think meds, bloods, hair removal...just the face hair for most ts who have not had IPL / lazer / electrolysis and so on.
Without all that a ts person would not be a sex slave, but a positive liability to any smuggler.
Also, trans is a taboo in most places.
Relative to a Day-one female sex worker coerced or otherwise
only a small % of people would pay for sex with one of us.
Brothels would not be interested.

So smugglers wouldn't bother.

Well, I am not so sure. Some Brothels in the Los Vegas area are now accepting transsexuals as sex workers. Also, Eros.com is sporting very beautiful transsexuals in many localities. I don't know if any of them are coerced, probably not.
The ladyboy situation in Thailand could very well be partially controlled by pimps and slavers.

Bangkok February 9, 2011. Newly formed Thai airline PC Air wants to be different from their competitors by hiring transsexual flight attendants. Being pretty and being feminine are the qualifications the ladyboys should have to join a new charter airline that will begin operations in early April. The airline has recruited four ladyboys, 19 women and seven men but said they will need to employ more transsexuals on their flights in the future. REUTERS/CHaiwat Subprasom

Is that a real person? Because it kinda seems like a computer generated image that is very close to climbing out of the Uncanny valley. She seems so static.

I'm on Eros as are a number of people I've personally known for years.
We are not coerced. By anyone at all.
Eros is for indy's.
I've never seen an agency or parlour ad on there.
