    Whose worldview? I’m undecided. I’ve been reading about the lives of prostitutes in Bangladesh though, and it’s heartbreaking. I’m definitely not a supporter of that side of the sex trade.

        It might be if I was using it as the basis for an argument, but as I said, it’s just something I’ve been reading about.

          Weird, then, that you sandwiched it between two sentences that are specifically about your view on the morality of it.

          Grow up.

            The one benefit of them spouting all of this irrational word soup is that I found an excuse to use the tagging feature of Boost!

            I’m not making an argument, I don’t understand what you mean. I’m barely even expressing an opinion; at present I haven’t reached any strong conclusions but can definitely see that the sex industry generates a lot of suffering.

      Should we punish those sex workers in Bangladesh? I’m not sure why their plight = sex workers should be punished.

      Sex work is fucking terrible. I have PTSD from some of the acts I was forced to participate in. Do you know why I was forced to participate in those acts? Because sex work is illegal, and advocating for myself in any way was impossible. Someone could choose not to pay me for my work, and because what I was doing was illegal, I had no recourse. I have often had to allow men to not use condoms or do really fucked up shit, because my other option was not getting to eat.
