They want to be seen as real workers? That means they would be willing to pay taxes, right? Right?

You don't contribute to society, you don't benefit from society.

Let's not let newspeak misguide us.

They're whores. They need pimps.

Edit: misspelling

She argued the combination of the “layers of criminalisation, stigma and illegality” and not receiving emergency support from the government, has left sex workers destitute - adding that women were pushed into choosing between risking being exposed to coronavirus by working through the pandemic and seeing their children go hungry.

So she chose an illegal career and didn't pay taxes on her income (again illegal) but wants the government handouts that come from the taxes that she didn't pay.

My heart bleeds for her...not.

It might be a bitch, but at least Karma is still working during the pandemic.

InevitableOwl1 · 2021-01-11T20:40:58+00:00

This is from the U.K.

Prostitution is not illegal here. Brothels are (but still exist)

If they legalised them I am not sure the women would be happy because they would likely earn less and have to see more guys

The only reason they won’t have got support would be if they didn’t declare any of their Income to the tax man over the last three years...oh...

RatingsOutOfTen · 2021-01-11T20:52:47+00:00

They are going to tax bachelors to pay for them.

Miserable-Lemon · 2021-01-11T22:46:55+00:00

Such strong and independent women! Who needs STEM girls, right? Just turn to the oldest, easiest job in history

“Our income has been completely cut off. You have to beg and borrow. We are on the floor. We’ve had to go to our regulars and say: ‘Can you lend us money please? I’m in trouble’."

What, so your johns are now expected to be banks? They're supposed to be savings and loan institutions? They're supposed to front you some cash?

She has been inundated with increasing numbers of women wanting to do sex work for the first time ringing her for work, she said.

Samantha added: “There are so many more women ringing for work. A lot of people that haven’t ever done it before.*

This is what women do when they need cash - they sell their bodies. Women who don't want to become whores, go on OnlyFans. Or they try the sugar baby route.

thisisnotyourconcern · 2021-01-11T23:09:41+00:00

And this line, right here, is why I fucking despise the Independent.

She said she knew many sex workers who had been made homeless during the pandemic.

The Government has literally banned evictions from private rentals, including housing associations. Oh, and there's been countless mortgage holidays you can apply for as well. Banks wouldn't want to be the first to repossess a home for failure to pay - bad optics.

Fucking mass homelessness my arse.

SwinginPastMyKnees_ · 2021-01-12T00:06:40+00:00

I like the quote of the 42 year old saying that the money isn't as good now as two decades ago. Me thinks the reason is not all about the pandemic.

Old_snowboarder · 2021-01-11T21:21:03+00:00

This comes from a left wing newspaper in the UK which is very gynocentric so it's hardly surprising.

kyledontcare · 2021-01-12T00:13:09+00:00

I truly look forward to the day when sites like OnlyFans are hacked and pictures and videos and names and email addresses are published and relatives and the public knows what kind of awful, rotten humans these women are.

I'm sure they have alll filed their taxes every year!

2021-01-12T02:40:23+00:00

Ok, fine, prostitution is work. NOW PAY THE FUCKING INCOME TAX.

Former_Loser · 2021-01-12T03:07:38+00:00

Solution: just date a significant other instead of whoring yourself out for money?

It really is not that difficult. Unless you are mega obese, there will be men that are interested.

But no, that would mean submitting to the patriarchy!!!

PatnarDannesman · 2021-01-12T03:34:39+00:00

I find that article to be hilarious.

_Nequis_ · 2021-01-12T04:18:33+00:00

Soon enough they'll be demanding money by sheer virtue of existing, this level of entitlement is borderline insanity.

Jr10101010 · 2021-01-12T06:01:48+00:00

Legalizing prostitution will only hurt “sex workers”. Go to any red light district in Germany. There is hundreds of 18-25 year old girls, anything you want for only 30 euro every 20 minutes. Free market will lower prices and these girls are going to have to gobble up triple the amount of sausage for 1/3 of the price.

Nathaniel66 · 2021-01-12T07:10:30+00:00

" The 42-year-old, who has been doing sex work on and off for more than two decades, said she was struggling to afford to buy food and has resorted to vouchers. "

Funny she doesn't see the link between less customers and her aging. She thought she'd be on top forever?

yomo86 · 2021-01-12T10:39:32+00:00

The memes were right once again. They did not become Katniss Everdeen in a crisis they became cheap hookers

2021-01-28T17:51:34+00:00

Sex work is an independent contractor led, no upward mobility, health trap that only the lazy and manipulative go into.

When these hos hit the wall and have no retirement they are the most desperate of all.

Yes, there are a VERY small population of sex workers that make a good deal of money. But those are the ones that give extras like hand outs and are theoat bitter and angry in middle-age.

Al_Walter_Chadwick · 2021-01-12T15:28:15+00:00

...and now imagine how desperate things must be for men, who don't generally have the option of prostituting themselves. What are THEY supposed to do when starvation is knocking, if women claim prostitution is their only way to survive when it happens to them¹?

^{¹ Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot - Nobody cares if a man starves. My mistake.}

Stahlboden · 2021-01-12T16:58:56+00:00

How many taxes did you pay to receive them back in the time of need?

BluepillProfessor · 2021-01-12T16:59:11+00:00

This is Fap material!

We voted for socialism and free shit.

Now we are poor.

We drove the men away with our rank attitudes and obnoxious feminazi attitudes.

Now we lost our bailouts.

I just have one thing to say to the whores:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHHHA!

2021-01-12T17:45:14+00:00

Get a real job that isn’t detrimental to your social and family health then

This is going to have a drastic effect on wage inequality.
