It’s not really about penetration as much as it is about giving sexual favors in exchange for money.
most of these sex workers are probably a lot more hardworking and useful then the average chick but sex work destroys your mind even worse then drugs.
I disagree.. sex work does not destroy the mind. It changes it. When I woman has too much sex from a lot of guys, she can no longer bond with just one guy (at least it's very hard). Her mind gets re-wired to depend on many men.
Prostitutes and sex workers of the past survived by depending on many men when she couldn't find a single man to take care of her. It's not a good thing or a bad thing. It just is... times of war.. times of scarcity ... etc... women have to do what women have to do to propagate the human species. This trait is passed through generations of women because that's how women were able to survive. sleeping arround with a lot of men and making them happy was a good trait when there's a famine and only the "ruling class" had the bread. women who didn't do this, died.
would I want a woman that sleeps arround? no, because I want a woman to only depend on me and I want her to come to only me when she has issues. It's a bond that generally only women who haven't "gone to the dark side" has
I think sex work for women is similar to soldiers who have killed other people in war. It changes a person. The change is neither good or bad, but just is. Soldiers who have killed before for the most part are more effective. Women who slept around a lot, can help society by acting as a relief valve for young aggressive men. This is a common practice through human history.
