I just had to unsubscribe from TwoXChromosomes. There was a post comparing liking sex but hating sex work to liking cupcakes but hating bakers.

The majority of bakers aren't trafficked. The majority of bakers aren't in the profession due to lack of economic options. Baking doesn't further the societal notion of women as chattel. Baking hasn't ever commodified female bodies.

When I pointed out that the majority of sex workers aren't in the sport for a love of the game, a woman who was TRAFFICKED argued that she eventually ended up engaging in prostitution out of "choice." Sis, WHAT?

Women who argue in favor of sex work are supporting MAYBE a handful of privileged white women. The VAST MAJORITY of prostitutes would rather be doing something else.

Of every woman I know who argues about "freedom of choice" for sex work, not ONE has ever said she would do it if she was rich. Which means it's done out of economic need and not a choice.

I CAN'T with this patriarchal BS from women.

Update: Literally got banned from the sub for calling out the post. Lord help those women, guess they're all just DYING to be prostitutes.
