I'm worried that if buyers demand to practice in secret, it becomes practically impossible to regulate and for sex workers to implement proper occupational safety practices. For example, security guards to protect them from violent customers.

    That's a part of the problem... also this 'protective' approach labels prostiutes per se as victims and denys them autonomy.

    Here are two intersting reads about 'the nordic model' :

    https://scholar.google.de/scholar?as_ylo=2025&q=nordic+model+of+prostitution&hl=de&as_sdt=0%2C5#d=gs_qabs&t=1770060948847&u=%23p%3Db8BF5LYTIuwJ

    Over all it seems like 'the nordic model' doesn't make prostiution disappear but reduces its general visibility... rather to the worse for men and women working (or being forced to worked) in this profession.

    Imho: This was forceable... declaring things illegal doesn't make them disappear, being it postitution (for which the efffort was made many times in history) or e.g. alcohol.
