I think profiting of the loneliness of people is wrong no matter who does it

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 48 points 16 hours ago

Sure, but I think the soulless corp hoovering up the profits with faceless entities is more to blame here than the actual human giving their time to others.

The latter scenario is just someone trying to survive in this fucked up world. The former is the ones who did the fucking doing even more to fuck the world.

Crazy how you think that the customer is the exploited one in a sex work situation. Loneliness doesn’t excuse contributing to a situation where someone must sell such an intimate part of their humanity to have a good life.

I feel for the lonely person, too, but I don’t excuse their bad choice to engage in prostitution.

Why is prostitution a "bad choice"? The first half of your comment leads the reader to believe you think sex workers are exploited but then slap them in the face. What do they have to excuse? People pay them for a service. Just as a cake decorator takes money from people making the bad choice to engage in marriage
