    It literally says "exclusively white women in the imperial core" disagree. And it's far from the only comment with that sentiment.

    Lots of depraved shit in the industry =/= every single sex worker being a constant rape victim.

    All industries are exploitative but that doesn't mean sex workers need rescuing from sex work on particular (discussing one particular segment here, not the many, many people forced into sex work). They need liberation from capitalism.

    And I don't see why the conditions for sex work well cease in a communist society. People will want sex and may not be able to get it otherwise. People will want to watch porn. Etc.

      So in our communist society, when we've eliminated money and the need for it, we're going to somehow compel people to fuck incels who otherwise wouldn't?

      This comment really demonstrates that you're viewing prostitution from the perspective of the client, not the people being exploited.

          People would choose to have sex, that's not "work". It's work when you have sex when you don't want to, which isn't something that anybody would need to do in a communist society. Other kinds of work are things that are necessary, having sex with incels is not one of those things. This is honestly so dumb.

            Sex as a commodity wouldn't exist in a communist society, just like any other commodity. But till we have money, some people will choose to engage in all sorts of sex work (that isn't just sex). Being paid for something isn't conditional on hating/being forced into doing it.

              I agree with everything you've said. You'll notice my issue was with the OP saying that having sex with people who want it but "can't get it" is somehow going to be a form of work in a communist society.

            It’s work when you have sex when you don’t want to

            What the fuck kind of definition is this?

              What's the difference to you between sex and sex work?
