MarkL: she has no protection at all from the law. If she tries going to the police (or even calling for help while being assaulted,) she opens herself up to criminal charges, and unfortunately, many in law enforcement (and the public) see the assault as "something that she was asking for."

As things are, she does have protection, she just has to turn herself in.

MarkL explained exactly what he meant by "no protection at all from the law". Your word games do your argument no service.

The whole police not taking rape of prostitutes as rape is less an issue in most districts than in the past. And its far better to keep protection running both ways with the law as spoiler.

I am not playing “word games” I simply missed a sentence in the post to which I was responding.
