Not necessarily, is selling your body on prostitution websites more freedom? I think not. It's known what women face in a secular captialism-first economy.

- lotsofpulp 5y agoYes, having the freedom to sell your body on prostitution websites is more freedom. I do not know what the rest of your comment means, but mine is pretty clear that not having to rely on a man to earn money and then give it to them is more independence and freedom than depending on a man to give them money. PS Isn't it funny that a women "selling her body" on prostitution websites is bad, but a man (or woman) selling their body doing back breaking work for menial wages is OK?
- gher-shyu3i 5y agoOf course selling one's body doing prostitution is bad, I don't know how that's even an arguing point. Not all "freedom" is good, some of it is destructive, like the example above. > but a man (or woman) selling their body doing back breaking work for menial wages is OK? Straw man fallacy.
- lotsofpulp 5y agoHow can it be a straw man when it’s not even refuting it? I addressed your argument directly by showing it is more independence and freedom. The post script is a humorous observation of what “selling your body” is used to refer to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man
- gher-shyu3i 5y agoMore "independence and freedom" is just an illusion. She's simply a slave to the desires of men looking at her body. Only a secular capitalistic society can believe that any good can come out of it. It's a straw man because no one brought up the issue of "selling your body doing back breaking work", or whether that is acceptable or not.
