There are people whose only option to experience sex is by "buying" it. Whether it be bc they're ugly, lack confidence or whatever else, they too deserve to get a taste of it. Plenty of ugly people have sex wtf
Sheep Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 2 minutes ago, GraceRandolph said: No one needs sex though. It’s an incel talking point that sex is something necessary, and why should poor women not have other options besides sex work? There are other options though and sex work isn't limited to women. It could also be argued that on some level, sex is actually a need for some
jediah556 Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 Just now, GraceRandolph said: The majority of sex workers are poor, indigenous and poc women. By saying that sex work is a necessity you’re saying that these groups being exploited is a necessity because it’s the only way the sex trade has existed throughout history. No one NEEDS sex, that’s an incel talking point. now where did I say it was a necessity. please highlight that for me also, just because the majority of sex workers are poor woc does not mean that the industry is inherently predatory or problematic. it can oftentimes turn into that, and in present day that is the majority of the sex industry, but keep in mind that the majority of workers that stock the shelves in a walmart, clean the floors at a school, etc. are ALSO poor people of color....does that mean it's immoral to buy their labor? 1

DAP Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 The act in of itself? Not per se. The system of exploitation that coerces (mostly) poor people? Yes. 3

Virgos Groove Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 Yes, it is exploitation at its most depraved form. 2 1
Trent W Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 It’s not immoral but it’s weird I feel like I’m contributing to exploit a person’s body just because they have some need. Everyone can do whatever they want with their body but the interaction will never be normal or healthy. 1

jediah556 Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 the stigma around SEX is the bigger issue here. not a stigma around sex workers. the fact that some people place sex at such a high, pure pedestal is the issue. sex is not a pure, precious, finite resource. humans were made to have sex, that's why it feels good. just because some people believe sex is some spiritual experience between two people does not mean that everyone has the same moral position on it. just because some people wait to have it doesnt mean others have to. it does not devalue the experiences of any of these individuals, but their perception of sex should not be the determining factor as to the most moral way of having it. it's puritanical and prudish 4 1

Or should we help them in other way? I don’t understand why an unattractive person should be entitled to sex with an attractive person.

What if they don’t have the funds for a sex worker? Why does being rich give someone the right to access others bodies?
The Man Who Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 8 minutes ago, GraceRandolph said: Why are they not just looking for people who would consent to have sex with them? I don’t get it. Some people just want no strings attached sex and don’t want the risk of any complications, if you’re sleeping with a sex worker, it’s literally just a business transaction. Once the deed is done, you both go about your business. For others, it can be because they lack the social skills / confidence to try dating, so they use sex workers as a way to feel human intimacy. There’s plenty of articles online on why people choose to pay for sex, so if you’re so interested, do some research. 1
Redstreak Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 All I’ll say is I’ve never known someone who did sex work for an extended period of time and didn’t come out of it with issues
Happylittlepunk Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 I don’t think it’s an issue of the sex worker is doing it willingly and consented in every shape or form.

I think sex buyers get off more on the idea of having sex with someone who doesn’t want to sleep with them. Rich men who could do well in dating markets buying sex makes no sense. It’s clearly a power play. 1

Because the choice is not theirs alone and and no one can be forced to have sex with someone they’re unattracted to? I’d be interested to know what you suggest as a solution. Also, no one if forced to buy sex. How it went from bashing sex work to advocating for unattractive people having the opportunity to have sex with attractive people is beyond me.
Inner Beauty Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 Sex that is bought is coerced sex, and coerced sex is rape. 1 1 1

It’s weird that some people still associate sex work as men buying services from women when it works both ways. 1
