minus-squarerc__buggy@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down13·1 day agoOK, I’ll rephrase it. How much to hold you down and fuck you? We can set that as the livable wage.
minus-squareVelma@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up12·1 day agoThe sex worker is still the one setting the prices and what services she offers in this comparison. The example isn’t that a rapist is setting the cost of raping a victim.
