Fact is, we humans make quite surplus enough for everyone to make ends meet. Your job is a form of coercion, to make others money. That health care in the U.S. is tied to one’s job is evidence of that. That housing is dependent on mortgages being paid consistently or one risks homelessness is more evidence still. Taxes are coercion by governments to give credence to fiat currency, not because they need it to pay for goods and services… they could print money to pay for goods if that weren’t true. Point is jobs are coercion, and sex workers are under the same pressures I described above, enough that I doubt any sex worker is in it just for their love of the game.

Their gallery is (was?) in the basement of the Dedham movie theater, with a fake security cam taped to the wall, adjacent to a bathroom separated from the gallery by a thin wooden wall recessed from the gallery wall by a couple of feet. You could hear (and smell) the ambience as you perused the otherwise musty-smelling artwork. I hope it hasn’t changed.

That article and those linked within are a goldmine. Thank you for sharing.
