@Tony@clew.lol @7666@comp.lain.la I read East of Eden one time, and this whole train of thought reminds me of the main antagonist. Obviously it’s a work of fiction; but it’s written back when readers used to demand sense out of fiction.
Whether deliberate or not, the question of whether or not a functional sex industry is actually a long-run possibility is explored; and while it tends to settle into steady stable equilibrium for a while, all it takes is one horrible evil self-serving bitch to bring the whole thing down.

@KingOfWhiteAmerica@poa.st @7666@comp.lain.la ...Laila Mickelwait...lol she's pretty much single handedly taken down porn hub. But to your point, I think there will always be a sex industry. Whether you pretend it exists or just goes into the shadows is a matter of public opinion at any given time. Like the problem I have with "make it all illegal" is that you won't kill it just make it more dark and hidden. If it's out in the open, it can be regulated and monitored and overall less abusive for both men and women.
