    Yes, it needs to be safe, legal, and regulated. Work is work, and sex work is work, and all work needs regulation to prevent exploitation of and harm to workers. Again, we sell the long-term health of our bodies to companies for money all the time and no one has an issue with that. Sex work doesn’t (innately) cause long-term harm, or at least not anymore than any other kind of work.

    It shouldn’t be illegal, and that’s where a lot of the danger is created around it. Prudish people who mix up sex and love pass laws to make it illegal though, and end up manufacturing hazerdous situations, because they think sex workers should be endangered.

      agreed, and also I think ‘slap chop’ guy from those infomercial ads influenced my opinion on this way long ago which is hilarious but also sort of depressing.

      but yes, i agree we give our bodies to our jobs I just only allow mine to stay above the waist-line. (not that theres anything wrong with the opposite)
