"If" ? You can't seriously be comparing tfw you perform an uninspiring job to getting fucked by strangers all day?

They are different, yes, but many sex workers pick that option to avoid the uninspiring job. Coz it doesn't take all day to earn enough.

Have you any first hand experience with ppl from that 'profession'? Please don't refer to the 'happy hooker' myth.

I've known some people at both ends. Have to say only the ones at the high end got much job satisfaction from it. Saw it as an art and profession. I knew more who just did it to make ends meet. Look after each others kids & go out for couple of hours.

Clearly those different categories exist. From my own and others work experience, I've very rarely seen anyone even close to being 'satisfied'. Caged ppl/animals do sometimes come to prefer the confinement though.

But they're not caged. The rationale was that they could earn (at the time) £40 a day working all day in a supermarket or earn it in an hour offering sex. It just pays so much more without taking up the whole day.

Let me get this straight. You're (partially?) saying that it's a rational choice if the pay is substantially better?

Yes, exactly. The options - work 8 hours in a supermarket whilst putting kids in nursery or give two blow jobs a night whilst friend watches kids & then do same for hers. They chose latter because can earn money needed without losing whole day to tedium. Also no boss.

So you consider it a rational choice when ppl choose crime since it, for many, is a vastly better source of income?!

I mean, better hours, no boss, superior time vs pay ratio :)

Yes, exactly. I'm not naive enough to think this is everyone's life. Many prostitutes do it because they have drug problems and/or can't hold down a steady job for mental health reasons rather than as a calculated decision.
