    i remember times, when we encouraged women to get out of selling their bodies instead of celebrating it and tell our daughters as a society that it’s fine to do a few years of onlyfans and porn. i miss those times.

    also, not technology.

      We encourage women to use their bodies for sport, for fashion, for art, for drama, for motherhood… who are you to say that they shouldn’t by their own free-will do another profession or service?

      Sex work is still work. People will choose to do it for a wide variety of reasons. Online they can be completely in control of how they do it and who they choose to work with and for.

      You can be a prude if you wish, but sex work is one of, if not the oldest profession out there. It’s going to exist whether you like it or not. Let’s just make sure people aren’t exploited against their wishes and that they can work safely and in full control of their own actions

      I guess the difference is selling your body because you have no choice vs selling your body because it’s a safe well paying alternative to being exploited in ways you have no control over.

        sure buddy, being a prostitute is the safest way for a women to have her body and soul exploited AND it’s very well paid, i guess most of them are just doing it wrong. dig your forced anticapitalist comment, really.

          OnlyFans models are sex workers too, for instance. Maybe your view of what a sex worker is is a bit outdated?
