I am sorry my initial statement left out an important point.

I made my statements & clarified them where needed. My opening statement could have been misconstrued & I apologize for that. That’s it, I’m not responsible for how other’s feel about my statements beyond that. That isn’t hostility - I respond to people in kind & take responsibility for my own emotions & expect others…

I have specifically stated that is how my friends, who have done sex work- viewed their stints in sex work. I have never described myself as a feminist.

1. I am pro the complete legalization & destigmatization of consensual & non coercive sex work. I am also aware that a lot has to happen in society to make that possible & not a shit show. I didn’t suggest that I don’t support decriminalization- only that it isn’t a simple matter.

I still think it is amazing that so many women are willing to put names and faces to their stories. People underestimate the difficulty in sharing something like this.

Eh, I haven’t been all over this season because the personalities & faux emotions were annoying, but I don’t see how her social media snafu was a surprise. The entire season was Shawn or nothing - I voted for nothing because I think Shawn is ok, the Bachelorette- not so much. Nick was a foil from day one - I took her…

I don’t read a post directed to someone else & think it contains all the info I need to justify jumping down the throat of someone I don’t know. Plenty of people around here make initial statements that I find offensive - it would be out of character for me to lead with “fuck you”. When someone starts off aggressive…

And you said it first. Wow. I don’t attack people or insult them, but I do return serves. I address people roughly how they address me.

If I was initially unclear - I have already clarified myself. I don’t think sex workers are inanimate objects, but I have known a few who felt like they were when they were doing that work. Get it. Got it. Done.

You are tedious & myopic.

Oh - I get it, so you can’t believe that anyone in that position would ever feel that way & describe themselves that way? You’re awfully sheltered. They felt the job denied their humanity, but whatever. I learn everyday, but keep your critique - we don’t inhabit the same world.

If you need clarification of something, then state it. I don’t think you understood what I meant.

Fuck you right back. I have people I love who expressed that feeling about doing sex work. If you have a problem with their lived experience take it up with them.

Golly gee! I never said they should. My comment was to a particular post - not the article/ author.

Well, my friends felt like mastubatory toys- that is what they described. I’m sorry - sex work should be legal, but I don’t have any middle class delusions. Every sex worker I’ve known technically chose the work, but only because it was what paid what they needed to survive at the time. They chose their customers…

I agree with you, but if you tie prostitution & porn together - can you explain why people revile the clients of prostitutes while being ok with the purchasers of porn?

I wasn’t talking to you & you clearly didn’t get it. Get over yourself. I didn’t shame anyone. Reread, I said “I am physically unable” a la PTSD & a long history of sexual abuse. But my point was, some chicks like to think they could do sex work simply because they aren’t averse to random sex. Sex work isn’t akin to…

I was just responding to that one comment, it was almost as if you were suggesting sex work was easy.

I am physically unable to consentually “bang” anyone I am not into. Would rather die that be a masturbatory Real Doll for someone I consider a troglodyte. However, I can dash off a campaign stump speech for anyone in mere minutes. No guilt either. If you vote for a fool based off a speech- you deserve what you get.

I’m not mad. The day I ran out of my apt because I wanted to put hands (& cast iron skillets) on my ex- who knows what the fuck I would have said. He didn’t harm her- I’m good. He vented childishly, but verbally.
