genuinely, and respectfully, what is the difference between someone being “forced” to be an escort, and someone being “forced” to work a manual labour/retail/hospitality job in order to pay their bills? except for your personal moral viewpoint on sex work

have you considered that people go into sex work out of desperation, and the mental health issues are coming from a low quality of life, outside of sex work? people who are poor, disabled, can’t afford child care all do sex work bc it’s the only thing they’re able to

have you also considered that all of those jobs have workers rights, and people in sex work don’t? allowing them to be treated unfairly with no way to report it or advocate for their safety and security

I agree! but by that same logic, all jobs are exploitation, is the point im making. the original tweet should be angry with the system that puts people into sex work, not shaming people for needing to do a hard job out of necessity

100% ! I am close friends with lots of sex workers and I work closely with sex workers. every single one of them would disagree with the comments under this, and unsurprisingly, none of these commenters seem to be sex workers 🙃

me personally? 😅 everyone’s answer to this question is gonna be different, believe it or not a lot of people will choose the former and that should be a decision they’re allowed to make even if YOU personally don’t agree wit it

I am 100% an advocate for full decrim. however, legalising and decrim are two VERY different things. can i ask how you conducted this study? how you got your findings?

a lot of people do sex work and love it. a lot of clients are just normal people who struggle to make a connection in their daily lives, and like to pay a beautiful women to spend time with them, consensually. that brings a lot of value to both parties imo!!

so you didn’t actually do a study, you cherrypicked other people’s studies 😅

what you’re describing is the nordic model, which in theory doesn’t sound awful but the reality of it is that it creates more dangers for sex workers. there is no way to **ensure** protection of women unfortunately, in any industry

if there’s higher rates of violence in a particular industry then we should implement more support for the women in that industry - allowing them to properly screen potential clients is a great way to do this, as well as proper workers rights and unionising under decrim :)

do you think that criminalising johns will stop people buying sex? or do you think it will push sex work further underground and therefore even more dangerous for the workers?

im glad! but being anti-sex work doesn’t help sex workers, it stigmatises it and pushes it underground. the tweet should be advocating for sex work decrim and support for people in the industry, if they really cared about the wellbeing of these women
