[quote=Saya;682725]No, I don't know it. When you try to push away injustice just because it worked out for a friend, you're dismissing the reality for 97% of prostituted women.
And we have said over and over that we know it works for some people, but overwhelmingly it doesn't and that is why we don't consider it empowering work.[quote]
Saying that is like saying that you know BDSM works for some people, but overwhelmingly violence against women doesn't, and that is why you don't consider it acceptable. And I know that's come up before in this thread. I just think you're saying an entire class of women shouldn't have the right to choose what to do with their bodies because of what happens to women in other circumstances ... and because of your perceptions.
Also, too much is made of that adjective "empowering." I wouldn't use that in reference to a lot of forms of employment. So what?
