One of the commenters said it was fundamentally gross to them..
It's fundamentally depressing to me: intimacy's .. unending.
There's no such thing as "a 1-night stand", or "just a fuck" .. you'll never be unmixed with that someone..
& doing it as mere-transaction, or mere-physicality .. ??
but apparently that view that most of a someone isn't physical, & most of sex isn't physical either, is deemed to be nonsense,
& pretending that merely-physical is "all that exists" is actually common ..
so, my perspective is deemed lunacy or idiocy by this world.
But seeing women being used for mere-physical sensation by random strangers, as a purchased-transaction .. that's depressing..
I wish the world didn't work that way.
I'm with all the people who want prostitution not-criminalized, who want it taxed & regulated, & I'd add that I want pimping criminalized: let women form cooperatives, or something, but nobody should coerce anybody into the biz of being used bodily.
