That's nice, dear. "Professions didn't exist before professions" is not the killer argument you think it is.
You are saying it is necessary labor. I have just shown that agriculture, organized civilization and a relatively sendentary life is a pre requisite to sex work. This, it isn't necessary labor because civilization has to exist already for it to be a thing. If the currency of the time is grain as it was and the rich had a surplus then the oldest profession probably came from women having sex with a rich dude so she can eat. Just cause something is relatively old doesn't mean it's good.
That's nice, dear. Yes, you're very smart. Labor specialization is bad, so too is the production of surplus. We should return to monke.
You're intentionally missing my point
No, your point is puritan nonsense hiding in faux materialism.
Yours is being horny disguised as a-historical ignorance.
I'm asexual you fucking dipshit.
Okay, then it's just a historical nonsense.
Or maybe your argument is stupid. There is nothing ahistorical about asserting that the demand for sex work has existed as long as we have records. Like all labor, it has included exploitation. But you now say that the specific class of labor specialization which is related to sex is somehow special compared to other forms of specialized labor. You never justify this distinction, you just wave your hands and say "YoU'rE HoRn1111" instead of actually establishing why that specific form of labor specialization is specifically worse than any other one. You don't do that, because the only appeal you could make is to cast sex itself as somehow more dehumanizing, which is just stupid puritan pseudointellectualism hiding behind bad marxism.
