I'm not against those who work for sex, but the idea to earn for a living doesn't seem nice. IMO, sex should be for 2 people (or more for others who prefer polyamory) who wants to be intimate/romantic with each other. My point is money should not be the purpose.

I think George said it best.

Totally fine, work is work, you decide what you want to do with your life and if that fills the gap more power to you.

We need more regulation though, like Amsterdam where if you're working you have to get weekly check ups, and psychological counseling should be freely available.

Sex work is a good industry but it also harbors trafficking which needs to be cracked down on hard.

The choice/situation blends in with every occupation so as long as no aggression or wrongful leverage is involved.

Yes because it's none of my business what other people do with their autonomy and they should be protected in their right to do what they want to do with their autonomy

Yep. There is definitely a strong market for it. And i firmly believe it alleviates tensions enough to prevent a lot of assaults

If only there were some way to judge if the pornographization of society had led to more assaults and trafficking 🤔

Always a great question to ask software nerds. Great thread idea dude!

Yes, as long as everyone involved is consenting. It needs to be destigmatized especially in healthcare settings.

Like most people say here, if that's something you want to do that's all good so long as you're protected by law and workers' rights and all that jazz. Personally, though, I don't really understand it. I mean, why would anybody want to do this with all the risks (rape, diseases)? I'm open to receiving perspectives and education, currently I just don't really "get" it.

No. Like sexual liberation, it's harmfull towards human civillization.
