I don't think that prostitution is any more sad than any other job, but it all depends on the situation. If it's a human-trafficking thing where they're forced into it, or they have to deal with abusive clients, that's fucked up.

Ok but there are different fucked uppness levels. Having to work an IT job for example can be pretty chill while working in an amazon warehouse is absolutely horrid from what i heard. And then id say having to dress up and be forced to be another gender to get enough money to stay alive is even more fucked up. Of course you could argue its better than for example in even poorer countries where you would have to do even worse things. But that is a pretty complicated conversation i dont really want to get into or have the qualification for.
