00:00:06,712 --> 00:00:08,277
Good evening every one

2
00:00:08,277 --> 00:00:14,577
My name is Sheetal, I am rising because my mom is sex worker.

3
00:00:14,577 --> 00:00:18,546
Whenever a woman or “normal girl”
is raped

4
00:00:18,546 --> 00:00:23,371
or beaten up than society always stands with them

5
00:00:23,371 --> 00:00:26,464
and fights for them.

6
00:00:26,464 --> 00:00:29,904
I am happy when I see this, but I feel bad also.

7
00:00:29,904 --> 00:00:32,735
Because my mother is a sex worker.

8
00:00:32,735 --> 00:00:35,792
She is always raped. She is always beaten.

9
00:00:35,792 --> 00:00:38,611
But this is not her job, to let herself be beaten.

10
00:00:38,611 --> 00:00:47,349
Since my childhood, I have seen her being beaten.

11
00:00:47,349 --> 00:01:00,454
......

12
00:01:00,454 --> 00:01:02,768
...I've always watched her being beaten.

13
00:01:02,768 --> 00:01:05,494
And any man who has ever helped my mother,

14
00:01:05,494 --> 00:01:08,486
because he feeds her two meals a day, he thinks it's his job, or his right

15
00:01:08,486 --> 00:01:10,435
to beat my mother. But hitting anyone is not anyone's job.

16
00:01:10,435 --> 00:01:14,205
Just like a teacher's job is to teach,

17
00:01:14,205 --> 00:01:16,468
a doctor's job is to treat patients,

18
00:01:16,468 --> 00:01:22,245
a sex worker's job is to provide sex. Of her own choice, not by force.

19
00:01:22,245 --> 00:01:27,304
So every sex worker should provide sex of her own choice.

20
00:01:27,304 --> 00:01:32,108
And it's not anyone's right to hit her.

21
00:01:32,108 --> 00:01:34,523
So I'm rising for my better future,

22
00:01:34,523 --> 00:01:38,721
for my mom, and for sex workers around the world.

23
00:01:38,721 --> 00:01:42,640
Thank you!
