I wasn’t arguing that sex workers should be forced to have sex with anybody. In fact, I was saying that the way sexual labor involves these conversations about consent and bodily autonomy in a way that no other form of labor does suggests that it’s not a form of labor like any other and conversations about it shouldn’t start from the premise that it’s a conventional forms of labor if treating it like one would lead to horrific consequences like arguing that sex workers should be forced to take on clients.
I guess I was half replying to your post, and half tying it back to the OOP image to say that given the concerns about sex and consent, I don’t think I agree with the “all work is degrading, so sex work is no different” position.
“Under 30”? I’m 32 and I read Ctrl Alt Del in my sophomore year of high school. I was probably on the younger end of people reading it at the time it came out.
I swear the Internet is trying to make me feel ancient 💀
