minus-squareZier@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 年前I can’t answer that question, but I want to know why it’s called the oldest profession when sex work is still illegal in most of the world. A profession is usually a legal job. And sex workers should be legal everywhere as a human right.
minus-squarebionicjoey@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up8·edit-21 年前Profession doesn’t mean legal. It’s just as opposed to amateur. ie. You make enough money doing it for it to pay your cost of living. But yeah it definitely should be legal, regulated, and unionized
minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 年前It has been legal in large parts of the world at some point in history.
