>related to her choice of career Didn't imply this. However, the science is that childhood sexual abuse is an antecedent to prostitution. >What are you actually trying to do here besides shame her for having been abused as a child? Warn others that she is dangerous and shouldn't be taken seriously.

>Warn others that she is dangerous and shouldn't be taken seriously. Is this post dangerous? You certainly didn't refer to any particular dangerous content, just shouting about a couple of weird tweets doesn't seem very useful. I really don't get it, unless you're specifically upset by her quite reasonable post about AI generated child pornography, but that'd be weird. > However, the science is that childhood sexual abuse is an antecedent to prostitution. Even if a causal relationship has been proven, that doesn't mean any correlation implies causation.

Feel free to accept or reject my level of epistemological rigor. I just know my priors, and honestly I don't see the value in continuing this conversation if you don't (or pretend you don't). If a lifetime alcoholic died of liver failure, it's entirely possible that he got hepatitis, but I'm going to go ahead and say it was the alcohol and treat any quibbling about causation and correlation as an irrelevant diversion.

    Even if you were correct, none of that really seems relevant wrt the actual content of this blog post.

  It's a bog-standard guide to escorting, similar to how some people post how-to:s on LinkedIn or corporate blogs. You can find hundreds or thousands of these floating around, commonly among ex-escorts who are trying to pursue some adjacent but less corporeal career. I'm sure some of these are written by more sensible people.
