The logical outcome of my objections is not a ban. I don't know why that has to be the case. Like you say, if we did more for women, they wouldn't have to do sex work. Then there would only be a small amount of women who do sex work purely because of passion, not because they were broken and grinded down by a profoundly sick society.
I don't think this is true. I think ordinary guys have access to knowledge that most women lack and just talking with women and taking their issues seriously makes a real and meaningful difference.
So thank you for conversing with me (as opposed to pissing all over me or just being blatantly dismissive).
I am not calling for a ban.
I'm sorry that you feel accused. I'm not trying to accuse you. But the logical outcome of your objections is a ban, if everyone agrees that you are right.
I'm just pointing out that this does not help women and in fact only hurts women in the long game.
I don't believe this is true. I believe this framing is rooted in broader cultural practices where a woman's sexuality doesn't really belong to her. It's a double standard that needs to be stamped out.
But I've had enough of sounding fighty on the internet for one day. So I will likely bow out of this conversation at this point.
Have a good day.
