Maybe it is you. From TFA: "“The more guys, the less safe the girl is. When there are other men in the room [for sex], it’s like the men are competing with each other, and they get rougher, so the girls can get really hurt.“" Not much need for bigotry to see that if people get "really hurt" in an inter-company bonding event, something must be wrong.

I'm sure the prostitutes knew what they were signing up for.

  Like they have a choice? Did you see the part where it's basically impossible for women to succeed in business as any average man would because of this system?

    what does that have to do with prostitutes having rough sex?
    - Broken_Hippo 8y ago
      If you don't have a choice to be a prostitute, it has everything to do with it. Forced prostitution is bad enough, but being mishandled to the point of being hurt is worse.

        So, you're saying, it morally OK to have sex with someone who's forced to be a prostitute, as long as you're not hurting them?! I disagree. IMO consensual sex is fine (however BDSM it is), non-consensual sex is bad. Arguing the degree of badness, while sometimes useful, is (1) not relevant to the above discussion, and (2) a second-order effect, so vastly less important anyways.

        No. what I'm sayin is that if it is consensual, whatever folks agree to is fine. It doesn't matter to me if someone wants to go through this stuff or agrees to it. There has to be choice. This includes a legal prostitute: The prostitute should have every right to refuse a sex act, whatever it may be. But when it isn't consensual, the harm done makes the situation that much worse.

    Woman can use their sexuality to succeed.
    - Broken_Hippo 8y ago
      Sure, but so can men. People don't assume men do, though - but the'll assume a woman that does well has put in time on her back.

        Really ? Never heard about it.

        I'm pretty sure I've seen it in movie or tv shows a few times. I've personally seen a man use his looks to get ahead - this was in a company that had many more women than men. And I'm going to guess that it happens with gay men as well.

  They signed up for sex for money, not to get hurt. Workplace safety and all that.

  > I'm sure the prostitutes knew what they were signing up for. What about the ones who were forced into it?
  - tomp 8y ago
    Those would suffer even if they were forced to have "normal" (i.e. non-rough) sex. (IMO legalisation is the best solution for that, but it's an orthogonal issue to the one parent was pointing out.)
