I guess my views are clouded. It’s not a fair comparison in my opinion.
One dies from Black Lung diseases and the other usually by suicide or maybe by drug addiction.

One chooses their occupation and the other is usually forced upon them.

One goes home, showers and feel clean and fresh. The other showers and their skin still crawls with yuck and won’t wash off.

One sells their souls to their paycheck and the other sells their soul to the devil.

@SimplyTracie If I linked you a long video on this subject, would you watch it? I promise it's extremely intelligent, well-put together, and even entertaining.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@CountScrofula I will do my best to watch it till the end. I don’t promise anything.

But first, are you attempting to change my views?

@SimplyTracie I respect you enough to think that one video won't change your mind, and that you have religious views which inform it. What I'm hoping to do is give you a perspective on sex work you may not have heard.

@SimplyTracie yeah, sky Daddy has clouded your judgement. I'd pray for you but I don't believe in him. Just know that Jesus was cool with, and hung out with prostitutes and he wouldn't like the way you judge them
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
@Azrael I don’t judge them or anyone. The devil thing is a metaphor. I mean, can anyone really sell their soul? I don’t think so.

Oh wait... you believe in Christ? Yes he did but I’m sure it’s not like He condoned prostitution. That’s highly unlikely.
Azrael ·
@SimplyTracie if you call it a "sin" you're directly linking it to something bad. If you mention "devil" it means you're linking it to something you consider bad. Something cannot be linked to good/bad without judgement.


Not really, but you do. No one's condoning anything here, it's just telling people not to judge.

[i][/i]@Azrael I’m more open minded than people would think. Because I wouldn’t do something you’re doing, doesn’t mean I think you’re a bad person. I just won’t condone it. And like Christ, I’d help you get away from porno if it’s your desire.

And yes, I personally believe that those who are engaged in these jobs are not going down the rightful path.

The word [i]sin [/i] is such a harsh word so I don’t like using it against others. Each person has to look within themselves and make their own judgment.

I think you’re wrong about something that is good/bad and that it leads to judgement. That’s not always true.

@CountScrofula Thank you for sharing the video. It hasn’t changed my views on sex work whether it be porno or stripping or plain ol’ prostitution.

But I understand their position on the current laws. For the men and women who are involved in the trade, it might just be just another job.

I think it’s takes a strong mental attitude for the women to keep doing what they’re doing. Maybe there is truth in the cliché that if you like sex, why not get paid for spreading yo legs. 🤷‍♀️
