Sex work is cool and all but it's also cool to be able to support your friends without it requiring them to give you pictures of their buttholes in exchange for money. I can't help but feel like this particular phenomenon is a product of a uniquely American capitalist hellscape and that maybe this sort of thing wouldn't need to be a normal occurrence in a semi-functioning society. What do you guys think?
It's an extremely weird thinkpiece and it's a bit terrifying to think people genuinely can't separate their interpersonal relationships from work. Even if it wasn't your nudes you're selling to your friends, seeing them as possible clients must put a strain into any relationship. Are you hanging out with me because you want to hang out with me, or because you think you may extract a little bit of profit from me? There's a little bit of debasing already when you bring up you're selling Tupperware or herbalife in random convos with your friends.
