Wait, what's wrong with prostitution?

[–] ProdigalFrog@slrpnk.net 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Many women (most?) go into prostitution out of necessity due to capitalism, and don't actually want to sell their body to survive. It's that group that the poster is depicting.

For anyone who wants to do it, there's no real ethical quandary.

Fair! I'm from Nevada, where prostitution is legal and regulated. We don't really get much of the former here.

You could say the same about just about every job though

Hard to say really, unfortunately we're nowhere near that society.

Nothing, which is why the wobblies are working to protect it.
