How does social control vary depending on characteristics of sex trafficking, the victim, the time period, or the situation?

It has become standard practice to categorize sex workers in one of two ways: prostitutes or sex trafficking victims. But there are also those who do not consider themselves victims, survivors or social deviants, do not wish to be treated as such, and may not want to (or cannot) leave this lifestyle (whether it is forced or chosen). Those who choose to enter the world of sex work may do so as a means of survival, feel as though they can do no other type of work, or have been convinced they are worthless by abuse or other types of coercion. As professionals that encounter these individuals, whether they choose this work or not, it is our responsibility to listen to their individual stories and empower them to take control of their own lives, instead of grouping them in such broad categories.
