The whole buzz around the moral bankruptcy of "#incel" culture recently has been great but it would also be brilliant if we could rethink the ways in which we're talking about #sexwork in relation to it: A Thread.
[cw ab*se, r*pe, misogyny].
The incel "solution" of having the govt (a govt which currently criminalises many aspects of sex work) provide subsidised sex workers to these men positions the female body as a state tool and TOTALLY erases sex workers' agency.

This of course isn't at all surprising given their rampant misogyny and frequent veneration/advocation of rape, but it's worth saying all the same.

These kinds of conversations about entitled men with cockblocking personalities/ideologies are REALLY important and always worth having, but it's also important to ensure that we don't elide sex workers' agency by omission in so doing.
