    Right, and sex work often ends up being one of the situations where people get abused right? Like if someone is making money on onlyfans, more power to them, but much of the sex work being performed in the world is being done by desperate people who’d rather not do it?

      Yeah, that’s true. That’s part of why in every reply I’ve made in this thread I’ve specifically been sure to say “onlyfans model” and not sex worker more broadly. Because there is a ton of exploitation in porn. I don’t know, I’m just grumpy that sex is treated as this terrible, dirty thing that must be hidden at all costs and never talked about. It’s one of my main issues with the puritanical society we live in, it’s damn near impossible to have good conversations about sex, or treat it as something that can (and should be) positive.

      Anyway, I’m about to logout and touch-grass, so I likely won’t be responding. I hope you have a great day! (And I always love seeing you around, with your good takes and your Venture Bros references!)
