      Which is good for mental and emotional health

        Previous research exploring the physical and mental health challenges encountered by sex workers, predominantly focused on particular concerns like human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) (8) but also discussed various factors related to mental health such as childhood maltreatment and traumatization (with prevalences ranging up to 56.8%) as well as experiencing violence in this profession (with prevalences ranging up to 69.6% for experiencing physical attacks) (9, 10). Studies exploring the connection between prostitution, a history of childhood sexual abuse, and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other stress-related disorders reveal higher prevalences in sex workers compared to control groups (e.g., 26.2% among sex workers vs. 10.3% among the control group for PTSD) (10, 11). Additionally, the high level of violence experienced by sex workers has been linked to mental health issues and was addressed in previous studies, showing, e.g., that individuals who experienced any or combined forms of violence (physical, sexual, verbal) in the workplace are 1.76 times more likely to have depression compared to those who did not experience such violence (12). Research indicates that sex workers encounter violence more frequently than comparison groups before entering SW. Therefore, it is likely that sex workers, like other marginalized groups, exhibit poorer mental health compared to the general population (13–15).

          Not speaking of the sex worker mental health buddy. It’s good for societies. See Europe.

            So you are okay with an underclass of people suffering because you think it might be good for society?

              I’m pretty suffering comes more from social stigma around sex and policies implemented around it creating gray spaces that people use to harm them.

              Example: SESTA FOSTA lead to bans on social media centered around sex workers so their jobs became less safe without networks of people who can distribute warnings about violent johns or track down missing persons.

                Would you enjoy doing sex work? Would you enjoy having sex with men that you were not attracted to, and needing to pretend that you enjoyed it? How do you think it would affect your relationship with your body? Put all of the legal stipulations you want for safety, etc, in this scenario. Do you think you wouldn’t experience harm to your mental health?

              No indeed.

              Sex workers are at least allowed to decline customers.

        Do people need to do things out of their own kindness for it to be valuable?

        I am great at my job. I don’t do it for free or out of the kindness of my heart.

          Depends heavily on individual opinion, in certain circumstances it does to me. Intent is very important to consider, if someone does something nice for the wrong reason then morally I believe it is not a valid act of kindness. keep in mind I’m not saying nor did I at any point say that prostitutes suck dick for the wrong reason.

      Yeah for 500+ dollars, they don’t do it out of the kindness of there heart or because they think you’re cute. You could get it free by going to a bar and talking to people.

          And I won’t change it either, you make yourself look equally dumb for insulting someone because they have a different belief than you, stop being a bigot you may find it enjoyable.

        What kind of well taken care of prostitutes are you getting? I’ve only talked to one my entire life and she was offering pussy for $20 as I was yelling at her to get out of my car because I was picking someone up as an Uber.
