I’m not against those who work for sex, but the idea to earn for a living doesn’t seem nice. IMO, sex should be for 2 people (or more for others who prefer polyamory) who wants to be intimate/romantic with each other. My point is money should not be the purpose.

    Absolutely because then we can start talking about protecting and helping the sex workers that need help, and give them a chance to work in a safe environment.

    Sex worker have been a thing since at least when we invented writings and still going strong today.

    Might be time to give sex workers the dignity and respect they deserve.

      I’m pretty sure it was a thing before writing, there was just nobody to write about it.

        I know, but we have at least some writings to prove that it happened back then. But sex workers probably exist since the dawn of humanity in a form or another.

        I could technically disapprove of something and still want it to be legalized, but you normally approve what you want to legalize.

        But to be clear, I approve of sex workers because to me, it is a job like any other. But since we built society on puritan values, they get a bad reputation and a terrible work situation.

          A very enlightened and humble attitude. I commend you.
