(1,250 posts)It doesn't make sense to you because you inherently think prostitution is wrong.
I don't see it that way.
I see it like any other business.
What IS wrong is sex slavery, sex trafficking, & the Law of the Jungle violence that's in the business because the trade is stigmatized & criminalized.
But yeah even with that corruption some prostitutes make much better money than the drones out here in the offices & factories.
With the corruption removed those who practice the trade can make even more.
A Prostitute's Union???
Interesting concept.
All I know is that I'm tired of the demonization of prostitutes & the infantilization of prostitutes as well.
I'm tired of the "we must save them from themselves" nonsense & the "we must abolish all prostitution" insanity.
There's nothing immoral about sex & if we got women out here concerned about "slut shaming" then why do these same women go around "prostitute shaming"?
Legalize it, regulate it, enforce it. Simple.
Maybe then these people will get the respect they deserve in society.
What was once called a brothel might one day be seen as a sex hospital.
I mean we already got the White Hands service in Japan giving sexual relief to handicapped patients.
I notice the tone in THAT Democratic Underground thread on the White Hands thing is much more positive & much less judgmental than the tone on other prostitution threads in this forum.
I made these series of posts in this thread to present a new point of view nobody else bothered to consider.
I changed the tone of the debate.
I took the conversation from A-B-C to J-Q-Z.
That's what forums are for. A marketplace of ideas.
