I disagree that this is modern feminism, but I do think that choice feminism is stupid*.

The fact of the matter is that the hegemony in general, and the patriarchy as an arm, will change however it has to, to keep its power. It's The Thing, it's The Blog, it will infect whatever it needs to infect to keep eating. It will maneuver around or engulf the shape of the weapons against it. That's the eternal bullshit of many long-standing but irrational social constructions.

*Some labor can't exist in the current society as anything but a sign of oppression and wouldn't exist in a more equal society. From time immemorial, the industry of sex has been something that requires an underclass. It requires a class of people who are not full citizens. It's social purpose, to allow some type of sexual vulnerability on those who seek it, is specifically extrasocial, and nothing extrasocial allows social liberation to those who are relegated to it. You can choose whatever you want, but that doesn't make that choice liberating to a class.

That said, that's why we should make the sex industry as intersocial, in our laws, as possible.

This really nails the hidden implication that in a perfectly economically just society, sex work wouldn't exist. I don't believe that at all. I think there will always be people willing to pay for sex and people willing to have it professionally.

That said, that's why we should make the sex industry as intersocial, in our laws, as possible.

This. It should not a stigmatized job. It should be just a regular job, one out of many, and one that's respected as skilled labor that has value. As a society we are sooooooo far away from that, though.

Yeah, I think even if you don't agree about whether sex work would exist the more just we became or not (I should mention that part of my ethos is that many types of labor in our current society require an underclass because capitalism requires a class of people who cannot gain capital, including farm workers, coal minors etc; i think sex work is different in that even in historical societies that believed in its social purpose as a public good they still require the laborers to a) remove themselves from social power which meant that they were mostly b) "adult" women and children. this is different than being willing to do something individually. there's nothing that someone isn't willing to do, so will is irrelevant to whether a society should allow it eta: and different from whether it becomes an industry or social job in of itself without the aspect that makes it socially valuable), the solution remains the same. make it like any other industry, with it's employees able be open about their job and given the safety to do so without foreseeable harm.
