[Defeat]

I have been struggling with a paper. To be precise... a paper proposal. I initially wanted to focus on the modernization of sexuality but now I am leaner towards to the autonomy of sex workers. The former was very boring, but I thought the sources would be more in numbers making researching the topic easier. The latter is more interesting but a lot of the research skims over the concept of choice and focus on the conditions alone. What do you guys think ? On both, do you think that sex workers have autonomy and the topic choice in general. Thanks!

Philoophically speaking, they are in a situation in which they must make decisions according to their demands and opporunities which are present to them, therefore i dont they have complete freedom of choice. Plus being prone to diseases and other viruses, and for what? some money, because they need it to feed themselves, if they dont they lose their house, or the people which give them 'homes' so they work 'work-from-home'. They are pressured in most cases.
It can either be beneficial to them, psychologically they may be happier and with their work conditions.
Or the other, which is a 'forced' circumstance. But either way i dont believe they have complete freedom (as Sartre would say).

But this is interesting, ethically speaking, there are some principles of society which are conflicting to eachother, such as a way to generate an income or die of starvation, or helping a man/woman to feel 'happier' temporarily. But it does not look good in the eyes of society, no matter which angle you look at it, because it wont be accepted as a 'norm', they will always be treated as 'honour-less' .
If you want to add some points of perspective by a sex-worker, read this but i still wouldnt rely it on that much, since you must stick with the subject at hand -http://www.inquiriesjournal.com/articles/28/a-feminists-argument-on-how-sex-work-can-benefit-women

I need to first make the point that I am strictly talking about sex work and not sex trafficking. Taking the forced out of the picture may take out the extreme forms and keep it in context throughout the paper.

You're welcome.

The Lounge forum Is fine, but I believe It's best suited here.
Back on-topic.

That idea is irrelevant to which side you are wanting to portray, i mean to say the psychological state in which the person is pressured, well i hope by now you must have read some parts of the links i mentioned.
The person can be influenced by their circumstances, they might have lived through a childhood which brings out the gruesome realities of people, child trauma, or a longing for love, or forced to feed his/her family.
I guess i can understand why thats probably not relevant in your case, and thats my problem with academic essays/research, they always want specific information not something thats IS relevant.

But there are also cases, in which a person has convinced themselves that it is a way of earning an income, and thats it is normal, or that they enjoy or not. But its also true that they are more secually active in terms of anatomy. And while they MAY get pregnant, women have shown for their breast size to become large in most cases but also shrink in some cases (https://www.webmd.com/parenting/baby/after-nursing).

And rather what is discussed in much more detail than what i will mention here, is the ownership of women, to own a woman and to guide what they do, either accepting them as an object or a person.
And perhaps you want to talk about internal spacing?

No no I appreciate your responses! In fact, I've made it a hard factor to look more at global experiences of sex work. I've now framed my topic in a question and I argue that while it IS consensual, the factors surrounding it force it to lack full autonomy.
