Very observant of you to not at all look at the outcome of prostitution from the prostitute's side. When we ignore that then it becomes much easier to see prostitution as any other work.I'm confused. Prostitutes do physical work and emotional work. They move their bodies, they say things that help more than most psychologists, and they bring the customer to cum and feel better physically, and sometimes to cum and feel better emotionally. Their clients walk away receiving a better resolution than any IT support generally leaves their clients. Maybe I am misunderstanding the conversation.
I feel like when I say prostitute, I mean a person whose profession is primarily to provide intimacy in exchange for money (and that is assuming they are doing it as a job, and not because they are forced to), while you - and many others - seem to point to a mythical idealized swiz-army-councillor that offer sex, psychiatry, therapy and more without any adversity from a clientele that mostly see them as commodities. The majority of prostitutes are not treasured healers that fill an important societal niche, but instead a product of income inequality with a clientele that see them as objects for escapism. There is a reason long-time prostitution statistically go hand-in-hand with mental unhealth, substance abuse and physical injury and/or disability.
Say... how would a prostitute unionize? Who would they pressure for better working conditions? How would they negotiate salaries? How would they arrange reasonable accommodation to be able to prostitute themselves on equal grounds as other prostitutes?
What would a good pathway for a career into prostitution look like to maximize their career satisfaction and outcome? How would they organize anti-discrimination policies that protect them from loss of income if clients suddenly don't want their services because of physical features beyond their control? How would they secure financial safety in times of reduced income? How should insurance be handled?
