And I'm not someone who needs to tell myself any lies. I've never nor will I ever hire a prostitute. I've no interest in strippers. My wife suits me just fine.
But to generalize one way or the other is pure ignorance. Yes there are in fact women (and MEN!) who love sex, love the money they can make from that sort of that and choose to use it as a way to finance other endeavors. There are also in fact women (and MEN!) who are in desperate situations and do something they don't really want to do out of that desperation.
There are plenty of prostitutes, strippers and adult film stars that have went on record and publically acknowledged everything I just said. You can't refute this.
Regardless of a person's reasons for being involved in some sex related fiasco to make money, there is no reason in the world that people should be criminally penalized for the mere act of paying or accepting money for sex. We can protect children and protect people from forced sexual slavery without arresting consenting adults for doing something that is basically none of your god damn business.
