“you think sex work is bad because it commodifies the body, but so does all wage labor under capitalism”. Tell me, is is just as bad for a man to force a woman to take takeout orders over the phone as it is for a man to r*pe a woman? Is it just as bad for a man to shout to a woman on the street “you look like you’re great at using excel spreadsheets, come do data entry work for me” as it is for a man to shout to her “you have big tits, come give me head” ? No obviously it’s not. Sex is inherently personal and intimate. Commodifying sex is not normal or natural.
