@zvhxxl @TheZeldaZone I draw porn, it's genuinely the nicest, most wholesome community I've ever been a part of online.

Clients are supportive and respect boundaries (I'm asexual, and I've never had anypony make a pass at me). A big part of why I love my job is that I have high standards for clients, and this is a community where I get good clients.

And of course, my work has as much artistic value and thought as any SFW piece.

I think comments like the above come from a place of ignorance.

@zvhxxl @TheZeldaZone Of course, there are parts of the porn industry that are exploitative and skeezy, definitely. But that problem is solved with more agency and mainstream acceptance, not less. I've never seen a puritan initiative that made sex workers safer or more secure.

But I've seen plenty that do the opposite; a non-trivial amount of exploitation is the direct result of shutting down legitimate, safe platforms and driving workers into more dangerous spaces. It's misguided at best.

@foxyoreos @zvhxxl @TheZeldaZone it's also not like non-porn industries aren't exploitative and skeezy, too. Several of them *actually* destroy the planet and they're legal as fuck!
