    It’s the impression, there’s an impression that sex work is just taking a picture of you naked in the mirror and making money, which is an impression and a misrepresentation of that field.

      Yeah you can’t be saying “se workers are workers and deserve rights” and 5 words later repeat the incel talking point that “sex workers don’t really do anything compared to a ‘real’ job”. You’re creating surplus value and being paid for your labor, it’s a real job in that sense. Not even under Graeber’s definition of a bullshit job is sex work not actual work.

        I am saying the impression, the way it’s advertised, only fans advertising, the way they advertise it is that it’s simple work or no work at all.

        here I’ll analyze every word I gave
        “it’s the impression”
        impression: an idea, feeling, or opinion about something or someone, especially one formed without conscious thought or on the basis of little evidence.

        “an impression that sex work is just taking a picture of you naked in the mirror and making money”
        there is an idea based on the advertising done that doing only fans is simply just taking some pictures of yourself and getting paid a lot, which in reality there’s far more than that, yet no where did I state it’s not a real work.

        “which is an impression and a misrepresentation of that field.”
        I again say that the previous statement is an impression people have, an idea without basis, and a misrepresentation of that field
        misrepresentation: the action or offence of giving a false or misleading account of the nature of something.
