Thinking about how Victor Hugo wrote one of the most famous portrayals of prostitution that is sympathetic to the prostituted woman (Fantine from Les Miserables) and shows how she is forced by poverty to sell her body, how it clearly is a traumatic experience, and how much disrespect the pimps have for her in reality... And yet he continued constantly visiting brothels and using the women's bodies - so much so that a very famous rumor was created that all the brothels in Paris closed down to mourn him after his death... Kill all men?

im thinking of jobs that involve contact with the private area. doctors, beauty salons, tattooist/piercer. they all wear gloves and work in sterile environments, also the worker is clothed.
im thinking of jobs that involve saliva. also doctors, covid test stations. again, sterile environment, worker is clothed, probably even wearing a mask, and gloves.
im thinking of jobs where the worker has to get naked. actors and actresses, models. they are at least supposed to have a coach on set and an agent supporting their safety.
none of this is implemented in prostitution and never will be because it destroys the illusion of it being about sex and not money and power exerted through it. sex cant be regulated or professionalised and thats beside the point that with all possible regulations it is still unwanted sex.

my brain broke when Elly Arrow (radical feminist on YouTube) compared prostitution to the videos where people made homeless men fight and do humiliating things for money, which everyone knew was wrong, and asked why prostitution is fine if that’s not… light bulb moment

porn is shit
i was remembering a conversation i had not so long ago with a male acquaintance. we were talking about pornography, and we both have the same view on it regarding that it's unhealthy. however, not even once did he mention the sexual explotation of women in the porn industry, how it revolves around male pleasure, depicts male genitalia as an instrument of harm and distorted the experience of intimacy. no, he only talked about how it was quick dopamine and thus resulted in male depression because they now felt the need to jack off every five seconds. because it's "unhealthy" for men and promotes unrealistic standards on THEIR bodies. and not just him, but every man i've seen talking about porn addiction almost always talks about how it affects THEIR intimacy. a proof of how they see the biggest issue as collateral damage because they're not afffected by it

"Prostitution was illegal in most places, but the fines levied on prostitutes provided a steady income for towns (as they still do). Many approved of brothels to curb male rampages. Between 1436 and 1486, for example, gangs of young men, mostly the sons or servants of residents, preyed on Dijon women. They broke into the houses of spinsters, widows, or wives whose husbands were away to rape them, sometimes dragging the women through the streets to an empty house where they kept them for days, repeatedly raping them. City officials solved this problem by setting up municipal brothels. They filled them with the women who had been assaulted in the gang rape."
-p.43 of 'From Eve to Dawn, A History of Women in the World, Volume II: the Masculine Mystique' (French, Marilyn)

"Sex work is work".
Okay, then why not teach it at school?
Why not fight for making it a 50:50 business where men are just as represented and available?
Why not introduce an anti-discrimination policy so customers can‘t reject a worker due to their sex? (that would be fun)
Why not cut down unemployed men‘s unemployment benefits when they reject a job offer from a pimp? (it already happened to women in my country)
Just wondering.
