it's kinda ironic that there's such a vibrant movement to let women have control over their own sexuality, yet we still have laws that would jail me for having sex if I happened to get money for it. We only mean "control over your own body" if it's socially approved control.

Serious question though: what do we do about the rampant abuse and sex trafficking? And all those who don't actually want to have sex, they just really need the money, no matter how much it damages them psychologically? I let myself just ignore them for far too long...

Working in a factory damaged me psychologically way more than sex work Also sex trafficking numbers are intensely unreliable if you look at the sources Decriminalizing sex work would let workers actually go get police help if they needed it.

But that's your experience. That doesn't erase all those who were deeply damaged by sex work, including many, many people I love. Including me. I agree about decriminalization, but that doesn't fix the problem, and we can't just keep pretending it doesn't exist.
