For the love of God can't we just make sex work legal, take the shame out of it, and STOP associating it with massage? PLEASE?!?
I've been a massage therapist for almost 20 years now and have got the point where the sex jokes hit with about the same impact as asking the cashier if something is free if the item doesn't scan at the register. I work in hospice, and not 3 weeks ago I had a patient's brother in law giggle and ask me if I gave his sister in law a happy ending. My inside voice said "no, sorry, she's still breathing so she has to keep dealing with you" while my outside voice pretended not to hear the comment.
Legalizing it won't take the shame out. There is no such thing as serious and dignified sex. We're animals that have a really fucking stupid and silly desire that we're aware of but can't just not want anyhow. Best we can do is try not to take it seriously.
Hey, FBI? Yeah, this guy. Keep an eye on him.
People like you who look away from the bad shit are the ones who enable it. The pedos and rapists won't seek help when you make them taboo. Instead they'll hide and that's where they do the most damage. It's not people like me you have to worry about. All I do is approach the topic with honesty and keep my eyes open.
nah. You're a huge waking Red Flag. Your premise is based on the idea that human beings have no sense of self control. You claim to be an atheist, but are using the same logic as theists do, but framed differently.
