Since every individual carries out any job to earn money, he practices prostitution to all intents and purposes. Selling your sex organ is no different than selling any other part of your body, like your voice, brain, muscles, and more, just to get money.
Well no, prostitution is specifically the form of work that involves delivering sexual experiences to clients; just as bricklaying is the form of work that involves installing bricks in an organized fashion onto clients’ property. Bricklaying doesn’t normally involve sexual experiences, and prostitution doesn’t normally involve bricks, but both are work.
Prostitution is also performance work, which is a category that also includes acting, music, and pro wrestling. It is also body work (that is, the worker does something to the client’s body); which is a category that also includes massage, surgery, and hairstyling.
Bricklaying doesn’t normally involve sexual experiences
…oh. Um… whoops.
Whatever lays your brick, yo.
is this where the phrase “shitting bricks” comes from? 🤔
You are correct that morally, and practically, sex work, and other forms of work, are no different.
You are incorrect that both are prostitution, as the word has a specific definition.
Selling your sex organ is no different than selling any other part of your body, like your voice, brain, muscles, and more, just to get money.
Um, no, it’s very different, the main difference being that the first one is defined as prostitution, while the other isn’t. So the answer to your question is, no all work is not a form of prostitution
prostitution is definitely a form of work.
No. Prostitution is when you sell sex
No. West 63rd Street is where you sell sex.
Technically yes, but I’d say it’s more that prostitution is just a normal job, instead of everything being prostitution.

Figuratively it works, but literally it doesn’t. I feel like people lose this simple distinction frequently online.
If you abstract any two things out far enough you can make them sound the same.
And yet, if “abstraction” and “prostitution” sound the same, it must be a really noisy party.
that’s not how definitions work.

More like union busting strike breakers. There is a supply union, with rationing, but the free lancers are providing supply against union scarcity rules. So those in the union dislike the strike breakers.
There’s a lot of different nuance takes out there, but I think this is one of the main sources of animosity of this employment group. In some societies it’s totally fine, and other societies, typically more religious societies, it’s very much frowned upon - partly because of this union approach. We control the supply side how dare you provide supply outside of our rationing system.
the practice or occupation of engaging in sexual activity with someone for payment
Yeah, gotta agree that prostitution is something different, something more specific, and something not mixed in every work existing (climbing in work ranks through sexual favors is another matter).
Not all work is paid!
But no, not all paid work is prostitution. Only when something personal is used for commercial ends does it become even figurative prostitution.
And literal prostitution is even narrower, narrow enough that it doesn’t include all sex work. That’s right, not even all sex work is prostitution.
Depends how hard you are getting fucked and if you are getting a raw deal
This is naive. I think every response sees where you are coming from. And some make sound arguments about why all work isn’t prostitution. I will take another approach. Be scientific about it. Test it.
If you already have a job, then you know what that feels like. So now, you need to know what it is like to let someone fuck you for money. So in order to do that, you would need to go out and do it. If you are a guy, you will find it is much easier to be a gay prostitute. Just a note. And remember, it is only for money and business is business.
And you don’t get any 401k benefit.
Yeah. Mostly it is contract work. Orgasm Uber, if you will.
