Sex work in itself is not inherently anti-feminist. What is sexist about strip clubs, pornography and other commercial avenues of sex is the fact that our society has normalized the open expression of men’s sexual desire and not that of women.
Kristina Rosett at The Minnesota Daily (Beware, many of the comments are typical Second Wave/all-sex-work-is-degrading BS.)
“It should also be noted that sex work — heterosexual pornography in particular — is one of the few industries in which women are routinely paid much more than men. ”
…damn.
Those comments made me so mad. I have a hard time with people that have never been around the industry making judgments on those who are. I’m in it, I love it, don’t try and tell me I am not a feminist.
