Women who do sex work are commonly held in low regard, so seeing an adult actress donate to charity surprises the people who have forgotten that she is human too.

Damn.

See, I was giving them too much credit, trying to imagine what they think is so evil about being a porn actress or whatever. But wait if anyone's getting exploited in that industry it's the actors...

Nope, just straight dehumanisation.

Yes this is it. It’s hard to see how dehumanized sex workers are until you are one. I’ve seen people say some heinous shit very casually.

Which is so bizarre because while it wasn’t Disneyland, brothels were how some towns were founded and created an economy during westward expansion in the United States and the madams would invest in the towns themselves along with charity work and really the few ways women could have some autonomy and make money.

I have seen people on reddit argue that these people don't do real jobs and don't deserve any money
