I love to see anything pushing toward destroying this stigma. Sex is natural and wonderful, and sex workers are workers providing a valuable service.
You see an issue crop up in many areas where something is generally found distasteful by society at large, so it is made illegal by various means, leading to greater harm than if it was just legal and regulated. You will not eliminate demand, therefore you will not eliminate those attempting to supply the demand. If sex work was legalized and regulated, it would be much safer for the workers, customers, and even those who choose not to engage with it all. The current legal environment creates space for trafficking/slavery, public health concerns, and a lack of physical safety for all. While a legal and regulated industry won't completely remove the black market, it would greatly reduce it and the harms it causes. Is there still demand for dusty garage tattoos? Yes, but that is certainly not the majority of the market.
i thought this was about sexy mummified people

please mark as NSFW🤗marking your posts means to repect fellow users in their choice for disabling/hiding NSFW related postsby respecting each other's choices we'll be able to garner more respect from the mainstream public and potentially gain new users to fediverse alternatives
edit:
I was in the wrong for this decision
thanks to @sushibowl@feddit.nl, @Scipitie@lemmy.dbzer0.com, and @agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works down in the comment chain, I'll know what to do in similar future situationsThis is the exact headline of an established newspaper. Wherever you're allowed to have your phone or for reading at work then this should be just as fine.
Please be consience on what NSFW should be and don't call for censorship in its name.
Ironically fitting to the article itself.
?
apologies but I don't understand,
- marking a post as NSFW would mean that users who've enabled to view/blur NSFW posts would have their choices be respected
the post is still viewable
maybe the norm has changed for what's NSFW and what's not NSFW?
edit:
after thinking about this some more I feel like I need more thoughts from people to figure out what's the right decision, trying to figure out content moderation is hard as I'm not perfect at this (I'm just a volunteer with no formal training)- just trying to respect people's autonomy at the end of the day
