I could also force you to sell car parts by holding your parents at gunpoint. Yet here we are, with no mention of making selling car parts illegal. I wonder why? Coercion of service via threat of violence is already pretty illegal as far as I can tell.
- Georgelemental 3y agoBecause sex, unlike car parts, is not a commodity that is bought and sold between rational economic actors. Sex is the most intimate of acts, the oldest and deepest animal instinct, and people will do things to satisfy their lust that they would never even consider in any other context. A marketplace for sex that doesn't abuse women cannot exist among homo sapiens; it's just not compatible with our nature. Many have tried, all have failed

- gameman144 3y agoI mean, a marketplace for anything that didn't at least discriminate against women hasn't existed longer than the last century or so. Appeals to nature always seem pretty flimsy to me, because everything is incompatible with nature, until one day it's not.

- cortesoft 3y agoBecause plenty of people are willing and able to produce enough car parts to satisfy the demand at a price all parties agree too. Sex work isn’t like selling car parts. To extend your analogy, the person selling the car part is the pimp and the car parts are women. The car parts don’t have feelings and their own desires, so you don’t have to force them to be sold.
- DangitBobby 3y agoWhat leads you to believe that there aren't enough women (and men!) who would be willing to sell sex if it were legal?
