Oh I agree with you on sex work in the present day. I just go a step further for the future. People should work because they want to, not have to. The value of a person's work should not determine the value of the person. One thing I do wonder though. If we didn't have to work, many people still would because they enjoy the work. Would people do sex work in that situation? If they want to, I support thier right to do so. But it was a thought that came to me reading this post, that I haven't fully explored in my head yet.
Excellent question. Idk, I can see indirect sex work like camming or porn still happening because that could be connected to a desire to perform for an audience. Maybe less prostitution but I'm almost certain that it wouldn't go away completely.
Well, I suppose by the time we no longer have to work for a living, we will easily have extremely good sex robots. So it will probably be an irrelevant question.
