I have nothing against sex work or sex workers, but I do think it's inherently more degrading than most other jobs. We're talking about the industry that normalized selling used panties and bath water to lonely strangers online.

Who is this degrading to exactly?

Everyone involved. But that's just my opinion.

From the customer point of view, I don't see how paying for sex if I can't have it in another way is any more degrading than buying instant meals all the time because my hypothetical cooking skills barely allow me to boil my own water without injuring myself.
