I've met more people who are proud sex workers then I have people who are proud fast food employees.
I think that perhaps you are letting your disgust for a person's work color how you feel about the person. Do you feel the same about athletes and actors? They also "sell their bodies".
As I said above, the people being forced to sell their dignity are the victims, and need help and rehabilitation. My hatred and disgust are reserved exclusively for those who exploit them, and the economic and social system which enables such behaviour.
