(B) Just because the laws do not explicitly mention it does not make it less of a form of prostitution. (C) Selling your body regardless of the medium is prostitution.

- Acrobatic_Road 7mo agoVery much agree. They're not "creators", they are prostitutes, as are porn-stars.
- nickthegreek 7mo agoselling your body for cash is what a warehouse worker does.
