I guess I don't understand why feminists hate prostitutes so much. They own their bodies and what they want to do with it is their business. Granted, I stopped watching Secret Diary after a season and a half because we had to drop showtime, but it never seemed like she was forced to sell her body.

Well, that's sort of the point- on Secret Diary, Belle was a prostitute really because she loved sex, made great money and loved it, and hated/found "normal" jobs "boring." I imagine the feminist critique of SDCG is that it glamorizes prostitution, because those aren't the reasons most women turn to the sex trade. Belle is also fairly wealthy, particularly by the end of the show, which I would also assume is fairly atypical of actual prostitutes.

The show never claims to be an accurate portrayal of real-life prostitution, but Belle's life is pretty glamorous. So I could see why feminists would criticize that as romanticizing the industry as a whole.
