When a culture begins to celebrate prostitutes, it can never solve the problems that lead women to prostitution. Sex workers don’t need “acceptance” from society, they need to be seen as a human being who was a victim of a system that couldn’t protect her from sex work.

id be more down with this if people *also* said this sort of thing about the even worse jobs I've worked at. I worked 55-hr weeks in a windowless assembly line and only saw the sun on weekends and drank every day to handle it. I wish society had protected me from that first.

but it falls really flat when i hear people saying that my sex work now is terrible and bad and i need to be saved, when i never once heard that said about me or my coworkers when we worked at that factory.

Can you really compare two entirely different situations and sincerely commit to expecting the same outcome? I'd imagine if you asked people to rank their moral outrage at both of those types of jobs they'd both rank pretty highly
