You want to treat prostitution like any other job? Ok, let’s do it.
This is the ‘job’ that so-called feminists want women to have the ‘right’ to do:
a job with no healthcare benefits (which will certainly be needed because this job also entails regularly acquiring infections and diseases)
a job in which you are less and less valuable as you age
a job in which a 13 year old is literally worth more than a 23 year old who has 10 years experience (credit to Sam Berg)
a job that necessarily leaves one at risk for massive amounts of violence, including rape
a job that frequently causes post-traumatic stress disorder
a job that may as well list ‘prior sexual abuse’ as a prerequisite
a job in which there is routine drug and alcohol use by workers, usually so they can cope with their working conditions
a job in which rape can be redefined as ‘theft of services’
a job that, if done indoors at a legal ‘work site’, will probably have a panic button so that the worker can get help for a ‘customer’ that is sexually assaulting her or trying to kill her
a job that many workers don’t even have the most faint glimmer of ‘choice’ in doing
a job in which ‘customers’ may film or photograph you and sell or post online that footage of you ‘working’ so that other people may watch you ‘do your job’
a job in which you are paid more money if you are young or are willing to do more dangerous things (more dangerous for the worker, that is)
a job in which economic coercion is almost always present
a job in which ‘quitting’ is frequently insurmountably difficult
a job that closely resembles slavery for most of it’s workers and is described as such by workers
a job that leaves its workers at risk for rape more than any other group of people in the world
a job whose workers have ridiculously high premature mortality rates, primarily because they are murdered
Some job.
Under these conditions I wonder why pro porners aren’t banging for proper unions (as if you can unionize this)……I wonder what anti porn-union propaganda against working conditions that the sex possies will scream on their behalf. Doing the work of the patriachy > not helping.
