Here's a possibly-controversial take, but joining the army isn't really even close to the best analogy for a male-dominated industry where you "sell your body".
Being a labourer is. Working in industries like construction, but not as a skilled tradesman. It doesn't carry the same moral weight riley was going for though.
True, but it's not just about labor.
To join the US military you have to literally sign over your bodily autonomy to join. Once you do then they can pump you full of experimental drugs, or run whatever other ungodly experiments, all they want. I know someone who considered joining then backed out when this allegedly happened.
Anyway, never heard of Riley before but seems nice. Hope she supports our troops and offers military discount for her OnlyFans.
What I hate with this is that is defines that the army itself is good or bad. But in reality it is what it is used for. If its actually used for defence, then it's very honorable. When it's used as a tool to exploit resources to the rich, (aka generally being the aggressor), it's not.
Even simpler than that. People trying to slot sex work/army/any job into “good/bad” columns aren’t worth your attention.
Except for health insurance CEOs, those definitely bad.
But war means more than sacrificing your body or personal reputation. War is giving up your whole personal conscience to fight for what the group believes is the most direct action in response to an event
I mean, even for defence. Your settling, an argument, the rich and powerful people above you are having. You're settling it with your life.
If you think your side is right and you're ready to die fighting then who is anyone else to say that you, the tool, is wrong?
See, that's an easy question to answer: Did you, or whoever, join the military while the US, or your country, was being attacked?
I would never compare, being a sex worker is obviously incredibly more honorable
But...saying that something is more honorable than something else is comparing them?
EDIT: to be clear, her point is absolutely valid. This isn't (to misquote a replier) "But I must find way for sex lady be dumb". Her actual point is spot-on. This particular linguistic evolution just feels weird to me - feels like the new "literally".
I don't sell my body because nobody wants it.
No, don't say that. Everybody has parts that are desirable!

Just saw this post, very relevant
Nicko Avocado has an OF, so don't sell yourself short.
How much Kool aid do you need to drink to think a soldiers job is "saving people"? Except for medics that's pretty much the opposite of the point.
I thought all American soldiers died far away from home so Americans can bake apple pie and sleep on red white and blue bed sheets.
saw this one recently, old school shamers have no chance these days, just pack it up bro
Grabs popcorn, sorts by top, scrolls to bottom.
No controversial sort sadge
What platform/app are you using that lets you sort by top? I'm on Sync and don't think it's possible
You can sort by top in sync. Tap the icon next to the 3 dot menu in the top right and select your sort option.
I'm on Jerboa. It gives you almost all the same sorting options for coments as it does for posts.
I'm on Connect and sort by top works
thank you for your service 🤝

If you work for a living, you're a prostitute - you're selling your physical and mental health just to survive no different than sex workers.
The term prostitute literally translates to "to offer up for sale" - and, guess what, that pretty much describes the entire working class.
I hope she makes tons of money.
Found out my work is getting a new chemical. The chemical is so volatile that if it splashes on you, it will potentially burn you into nothing.
I am fodder for the machines of industry.
Sex workers are the original social workers.
According to my ex, who prides herself to be a social worker and a conflict solver, relationships are built solely on sex, not on interpersonal connections. But then again, she also thinks that you shouldn't ever apologize because it shows a lack of self-esteem, called the police on her best friend because she was jealous of her hooking up while she didn't and regularly posts "memes" about how terrible everyone else is on Facebook. Maybe she's just a nutcase.
That may just be her, and I kinda feel bad for her. That sounds like a lot of maladjustment and projection. My friends say they had some regulars who'd start the sessions telling them about their lives and showing them pictures of their kids. Touch and validation can be a form of medicine. Everyone needs to feel wanted. We are social creatures. Incels are one example of those starved from such things.
Maybe she’s just a nutcase.
Maybe. Yes.
I don't think I'll ever understand why women who choose to enter the sex trade are demonised. It's a job, some enjoy it and some don't, but everyone enjoys getting paid. Though the comparison between people who rent their bodies (sex workers do get to keep their own bodies after work) and people who gamble their bodies (soldiers don't always get to come home as part of the job) is a little off.
Lotta stupid discussions on the internet
Oh, well, hello fellow sophisticants. Sorry, I was referring to someone else.
That guy looks exactly like what you would expect someone saying that to look like
Partial Print doesn't understand how analogies work.
I love this OF model. Hot and funny.
What a stupid tweet. And this post trying hard to start drama.
Neither of them are respectable
"I only look at drawn pornography." -ThatWeirdGuy1001, probably
I'd compare sex work to sex work. War is war whether or not you want to include women or not. It just happens to be that most straight people prefer not to have unnecessary wars without personal benefit. If we created conscious war machines with their own minds, autonomy and conscience, then we would probably have trouble. Especially with all the anti-war memes and how peace loving myself and the vast majority of humanity is.
Did anyone else even understand what this person was saying?
that profile pic she is using is not the most sexiest I have seen but now that I am invested I guess I will have to have a look at her page....
That lady is busy! Her wholesome Instagram is pretty good
Yeah she seems fun, if I was the sort of person to spend money on entertainment rather than participating in the free access community commons then I would probably give her 13.99 just to enjoy her trolling.
Do what you want to do with your body, but don't be upset when I don't want to associate with you and educate people about what you do for a living.
Clearly you're talking about the army.
