I understand that some of the criticism comes from conservatives but the sentiment seems to extend far beyond thst. Of course, I understand it when it’s forced or when someone only does it to survive against their will. But if people genuinely want to do it, why do people hate on them?

    Protecting women from trafficking and pimps is denying them agency?

    I specifically said I’m against criminalizing sex workers.

    This is akin to denying critical race theory.

    Stop and think about who benefits. It literally is the Epsteins of this world benefiting from this glamorized false narrative about how sex work is.

    I would never hold it against a women for choosing sex work. What I do have a problem with is the systems that have made sure she doesn’t have any better options.

    These false narratives that it’s empowering.

    And the men in power who push this narrative that her only value is whatever they like about the way she looks.
