Pretty fucked up to think that sex workers should be subjected to a bunch of misogynists.
There’s a disconnect with capitalism and culture. Getting laid isn’t going to fix that.
Sex workers can choose their clients, if they want to take a misogynists money, what the fuck business is it of yours?
See… you’re pretty much aggressively agreeing with me and that’s fucking ridiculous, but also clown shit.
In this thread a bunch of people are suggesting that sex workers would/ should take on clients that have a higher than average probability of hurting them… failing to acknowledge the fact that sex workers may or may not take on a particular client.
The overall sentiment behind the comments like that is putting an obligation on to sex workers, “fuck this guy and save the world.”
Sex workers can say, “no” to a potential client just as well as they can say “yes.”
There’s also several places that already have legal sex workers; yet here we are with this problem.
Also, why do we assume that them having sex with a sex worker will magically fix the serious mental issues they're facing? Will they suddenly become likeable dudes that women want to be with after that sex worker experience? I'm pretty sure Elon has had sex with a few sex workers. Let's ask him...
100% agreed. Who’s to say they don’t punch a sex worker in the face and determine that they enjoy the experience?
But at the end of the day, the burden falls onto the sex workers right? Voters and informed citizens shouldn’t have any input…
