    Of course. And guys here are way too eager to act like this stuff is unproblematic under the guise of owning the incels or whatever and it's suspicious.

      it reminds me of a bbc documentary i saw a few years back about young models from Ukraine with Reggie Yates in

      Reggie Yates explains to the camera, quite sincerely, as a parade of 14-17 year olds walk by in underwear and high heels that

      "In Soviet times these girls would've had to go to school, get a degree then work in their specialisation whereas now they can become models for 6 X the monthly salary"

      The intonation perhaps doesnt come off as well in text format but his tone implied that this way of life was more superior than....becoming educated and learning a trade or specialisation when you can just model and watch the money roll in

      The apologists for the rape industry that is the sex industry under cover of "incels mad lol" is such a bourgeois individualist view of the world

      There is a reason actually existing socialist countries outlawed prostitution and treated prostitutes as victims of an oppressive system that needed to be re-trained into actual jobs

        “incels mad lol” is such a bourgeois individualist view of the world

        Giving women the agency to make decisions under misogynist patriarchy is one thing, but capitalism's economic incentives are obviously a big part of sex work.
