I'm almost sure I made a thread on this a while back lolz idk, I had respect for the idea several years agoyou're dangling yourself in front of the kinds of people who are probably going to develop parasocial feelings, or potentially find your information and stalk or kill you. being a female sex worker is just playing with fire for essentially paltry amounts (unless you're selling loads per day)and if you're married or in a relationship, like, maybe get a real job? maybe get your partner to pay for you? I know it's tough out there, and I can appreciate the grind, but there have to be better ways. and I can guarantee that >50% of the people who do that kind of thing, and are in a relationship, are doing it against the wishes of their significant other. like who could live with that?it's really exploitative and yeah, I'm dry dick as sh*t, so I get how this comes off, but it's just not cool this is just another random opinion. I would never pay for sex when the free stuff is just out there, so this isn't really as near and dear to my heart as I'm making it sound. like most things that set me off, I have no idea why this set me off and then they get angry and try to defend their behavior when they are under attack for their involvement in the industry.. like it's essentially equivalent to prostitution, of course you're going to be looked down on. it's very difficult to defend that it's skanky - fucking act like a woman. be miserable with the rest of us and do your contribution to society. or go marry a lonely millionaire.. there are so many other ways you can do this instead of charging 5 dollars on your onlyfanssame for guys, really, but guys are just being toolbags and it just showcases a level of narcissism. and I imagine they're abusive to some degree to any women they encounter (perhaps a bad assumption )but I would say ultimately it's fine if you're single yourself. you're obviously just using people for money and it's still really skanky, but you gotta make a living I guess :3and who the fuck pays money to see a couple having sex? I can see sending a woman money just for pics of her but I mean, if I wanted to see someone having sex that bad it's either 1) freely posted online or 2) I could just pay money myself to actually have sex and not watch random people do it onlineI guess people were always this stupid, and the internet is just shining a massive light on humanity thank you for your time, or avoidance

Dang BB maybe you should smoke weed regularly
7/12/2025 1:48:05 PM
I miss smoking it so fucking much, but my lungs and heart just can't do it anymoreI have to stick to edible stuff unfortunatelyI know the diff strains of smoked cannabis might have some beneficial effects for me for surebut I can't ever tell which ones are going to workthe last probably 15 batches/types of weed (before I stopped) just either baaarely worked, or literally made no difference at allthey basically just made me waste my time loading up the bong (after the waste of time that is cleaning it) and for nothing. I was going to say I'd like all that time I wasted back, but, if I'm going to just feel like shit forever, I guess I don't need that time back lolyeah idk what to do about it manI'm unhinged as shit, but I can't take anti-depressant or anti-psychotics because the side effects are just too much for me to bearthe benefits, also, generally do not outweigh the drawbacks in those types of meds eitherso sticking to more natural medicine is probably all I can do :-\and unfortunately I can't be fucked up when I'm working all day sooo my entire work day I feel absolutely miserable nowI feel completely stuck. I've been completely fucking stuck for god damn 15 years now I've tried to do something about it and failed multiple timesno magic fairy has come into my life to help me, eitherI understand that it's basically all on me to do it, but I have consistently failed, and I'm tired of trying. especially when it comes to stupid medications. 99% of them have proven to not workonly one of them has worked for me consistently (to keep me from being full-blown manic, thankfully) and without side effects. benzos work but I've been really trying not to use themthat might be contributing to it, because I've been trying not to use thatand I'm not abusing them. like if I wasn't working and had very little stress, benzos (klonopin here, more specifically) are something I wouldn't even think of taking bc there's no pointthey don't make me feel better. they just make me feel normal, and get me to a point where I can actually sleep at nightso like what the fuck do I doeveryone in person generally likes me a lot, but obviously is going to keep their distance since they can tell something is slightly off about me lol. so I'm going to just be alone. I'm not even going to try to step foot in the dating game, pretty much for that reason. bc I know it's going to failI would treat any woman these days like she deserves to be treated. but naw, women want married men. women want stupid men lol, bc they're stupidjesus christ I hate people (a direct contradiction to what I said in my previous post )honestly am kind of resentful towards women because they're mostly fucking petty and terrible. my last woman boss blessed me out so many times when I was literally doing nothing wrong. no exaggeration. she basically just didn't like me for any rational reason. kind of like any other irrational bullshit that women think lol. she's lucky I didn't have a iPhone or I could have easily gotten her fired.but no, I'm not a piece of shitI don't try to ruin other people's lives and haunt their nightmares for the rest of their lives because they are not doing what they're supposed to be doing at a minimum wage/dead end job lol(I was doing what I was supposed to be doing. all the patrons loved me and I never had any complaints except from petty FEMALE STAFF members) k thanks bye!

Thank you, BB, for taking a firm stand on the hard issues.Like that sex work is exploitative.Do you exercise? I don't currently, so no judgment, but those endorphins are pretty good shit, bro. I used to exercise, and once you get over feeling like you are going to die, it usually makes you feel considerably better.
7/12/2025 3:10:20 PM
sex work is real workin our current conditions all work is coercedsex workers are exploited because it is work, not because it is sex
7/15/2025 6:00:11 PM
Bubs, you posted so much I'm not even sure how you ultimately feel about sex workers.As long as it is a legitimate choice, I support sex workers and the sex industry.[Edited on July 15, 2025 at 6:08 PM. Reason : Edit.]
7/15/2025 6:07:21 PM
I support it, but I feel like it shouldn't be your only source of income. at least put in like 15 hours a week at walmart or something and being upset when someone demeans you for it is also kind of stupidbut I think everything is stupid, so it really doesn't matter what my opinion on sw is I guess my ultimate opinion is, everyone should essentially be able to do whatever they want, so if they choose to do sex work, then I will stand behind them
7/15/2025 9:45:19 PM

You should sell all of your possessions and move to a rural area in South America or Europe and make ends meet doing odd jobs or whatever skills you haveI bet you’ll thrive

by "it" I meant exerciseidk if that was obviousthank you for ur time today
7/16/2025 5:05:49 PM
No, it wasn't obvious, because I thought you were taking about DDR.
7/16/2025 8:59:07 PM
Perhaps it for him is both exercise and DDR

we haven't had a chance to talk about how emnsk reacted to my statement that I don't think he (or me, for that matter) are any better than a prostitute
7/17/2025 8:11:45 AM
you didn't say that[Edited on July 17, 2025 at 11:18 AM. Reason : all work is exploitation is the left equivalent of taxation is theft.]i agree with bottombaby
7/17/2025 11:17:26 AM
I think that if we removed some of the stigma around sex work, and brought it out into the open, then some of the dangers associated with sex work disappear.
7/17/2025 11:52:20 AM
7/17/2025 12:08:01 PM
i agree. some work, some times, in some circumstances, may be exploitativei think emnsk's reaction was toward your framing that all work, all the time, in all circumstances, must be exploitative.[Edited on July 17, 2025 at 12:18 PM. Reason : this thing]
7/17/2025 12:17:07 PM
I feel like being paid for sex and being paid to move heavy things is more-or-less the same thing. If a person isn't doing it out of a sense of personal joy then there's an element of coercion in either scenario.
7/17/2025 1:14:44 PM
both of those are voluntary transactions between consenting parties. there's no coercion there. it's better if we reserve words like coercion for situations where it actually literally applies, lest we diminish the utility of the word.it's fine (better than fine even) to highlight how most people work jobs that are not necessarily rooted in their own personal fulfillment and self-actualization. that's an important topic. and the more we can figure out how to organize society such that more people are able to spend their days doing work that does add meaning to their life in addition to merely being able to put food on the table, a roof over their heads, shirts on their backs and the latest iphone in their pocket, the better.but since we haven't quite figured out how to do that yet, some people become impatient, demoralized, defeatist and cynical, and see no other choice but to jump to the easiest alternative which is to complain that we're not there yet by framing our current reality as the most serious of injustices and find somebody to blame for it.we're all still just one generation in a long line of creatures who have walked the earth. humanity has come a long way from trying to avoid being eaten by tigers to being able to debate with each other on the information superhighway about whether or not sex workers have agency. inshallah we'll get to the everybody is self-actualized stage of humanity, but we're clearly not there yet. don't overreact to our present circumstances.[Edited on July 17, 2025 at 2:24 PM.

when we criminalize poverty and eliminate all shared public space through privatization it does kind of feel like coercion -- there's no opportunity to opt out of workI don't think it's hyperbolethe tension between the owners who wish to force everyone into labor and the poor who wish to retain the right to withhold their labor is ancient, though, I agree - and very much not a settled topicI worry about systematic changes that force people into labor

Does anyone here think prostitution should be legalized across the board?I'm not sure what it looks like in Nevada or Las Vegas, but I feel like as an industry, it could get cleaned up a lot. Are Johns still a thing? I wouldn't think you need them now in the days of online dating apps? But even without Johns, there is still such a risk for abuse.And of course STD's - if it were legalized, workers could be tested on a regular basis. And even if the government had to support some of the infrastructure, it could be offset by taxes. The downside there is that taxation might run the industry back into the black market.Thoughts?
