    Serious question: when you do manual labour, is that not selling your body? Anyways, how is it different from doing that in sex work?

      Serious answer: Humans are not meant to sell their bodies. They are meant to do physical work, of course.

      If you cant see the difference, maybe a good example is if this was your daughter. Would you think selling her body is the same as working as a waitress? If yes, you are missing something inside.

        Humans are not meant to sell their bodies.

        they aren’t but they do anyway. if i had a daughter living well from sex work, i’d be happy for her over having a minimum wage job that doesn’t afford a decent life.

        i’m not morally opposed to sex work, much grosser jobs to have. like cop, or lawyer.

        If you don’t like sex work then that’s totally fine, don’t do sex work, but there’s a large market for it and plenty of people willing to fulfil that demand. Even if you don’t like it, it’s important to destigmatize it to make the lives of sex workers safer through legal protection, health care, etc. As far as sex work goes, onlyfans can be much better than the traditional porn industry because channels can be run independently, which reduces the risk of exploitation and human trafficking.

        Sex work should be completely consentual and safe, and destigmatization and legal protections can help make that happen.

          If sex work is consensual, why does money have to be involved?

          Although I don’t really have a problem with temporarily increasing regulations on the already existing sex work markets, it is fundamentally coercive and should be phased by providing welfare and rehabilitation for sex workers and eliminating the capitalist forces that drive people to it.

          Im surprised anyone can like it. Its obviously wrong, morally, spiritually, emotionally, as a human being.

          People are doing it anyway of course. Because a lot of people are broken in this world. And there is a market for it, of course. Its still wrong. We are not here to serve the market with our bodies. Lol.

          If you think its fine, you are missing something inside. It really is that simple. And then you rationalize it with lots of market arguments or protection arguments, because you dont mind people selling their bodies. Even try to make it seem like a normal profession for humans to do.

          A lot of people, like yourself, wants to believe they are good humans while doing bad things. So they rationalize it the way you do above. But you know the truth. You are just not capable of understanding why its wrong. Because that part is missing.

            bro’s jealous of people actually being attractive instead of annoying jerks

            just let people be they aren’t hurting you or anyone else.

              Maybe the Jesus mindset of compassion and love for humans beings, yeah.
