if it’s “a job like any other” than why does it have special rules around who can talk about it? 

i’m sorry, on what planet is is sex workers and only sex workers who say “we are the best voices about our own experiences”? 

Like, do you also get up in doctors’ faces and say “actually, i’ve decided that yo would be safer if it were only legal to performin your apartment at home”?  Do you tell plumbers that they only handle other people’s shit for a living because they had lousy childhoods?  Like, the stuff that sex workers tell you is inappropriate for you to speak on is just as inappropriate for other professions, and other kinds of life experience, except you don’t need to be told that because you think of doctors and plumbers as people, and so it’s obvious that you shouldn’t do that shit.
