If someone is forced to do things with a client they dont want to, then they're not sex workers, they're sex slaves

Decriminalise sex work and put in place regulations to protect workers

Yet when I turn down a task at work I'm "combative" and "out of line"

That's how you can tell your boss needs slaves and not employees.

I don’t know about your work, but at my job, there are a few things that I’ve told my boss that I’m simply bad at or don’t feel confident in doing. Sometimes being bold and honest can work in your favor. Doesn’t apply to all situations though.

The day they force me to switch to windows is the day i quit, i'll take being homeless over using windows anyday of the week

The sticky bit (pun intended) is what would be considered inappropriate in the bedroom that should be deemed be illegal? Hardly a police will watch the act and say "Oh that's a shocker. That's a $500 fine for you."

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 32 points 2 weeks ago

I'm not sure I would describe rape as just "inappropriate", but yes I do think rape should be illegal, and people should be protected from ending up in situations where they get raped

[–] BreakerSwitch@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Other commenter nailed it, but it's "the one they say no to"

[–] kaotic@lemmy.world 45 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Sex workers get to select who they work with. You’re thinking of sex slaves.

Fuck human traffickers.

[–] malean@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I think that sex workers usual clients aren't hot people and if you need money you can't be picky...

Don't like your job, people can just not go.

[–] ski11erboi@lemmy.world 20 points 2 weeks ago

Right because everyone only works out of enjoyment.

"Sex work is work and work sucks."

I work 3 12s and I can't even imagine...

"At the same time!?"

Wait no the quote is "In a row?"

If you’re a sex worker, don’t agree to any work with the Harkonnens - they have a history of killing their pets.

[–] The_Lurker@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Baron Harkonnen was a pedophile and consent never mattered for him.

[–] Dzheyk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

..if they're lucky

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 5 points 2 weeks ago

Flashbacks to the gritty parts of "Sucker Punch". Ick...

... Underrated movie though...

It's The Judge from Blood Meridian!

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

The judge would never pay for it. Or ask for it.
