One of the lesser known international celebrations listed on a government website


From the South Australian Government Women's Information Service:

International Whores Day Invitation Friday 5th June

International Whores Day celebrates the birth of the sex worker rights movement in 1976 Lyons, France. In 2009, more than 30 years on, South Australian sex workers are still fighting against discrimination, criminalisation and victimisation. This year please join sex workers, other sex industry employees, health and welfare workers, supporters, friends and families, to show your support for sex workers in South Australia as we continue to fight for our human rights.

The Scarlet Alliance has details of events in SA, NSW, Vic and the ACT
