The fallacy of 'choice" in sex work is exactly this. Women are underrepresented in other areas, are objectified with their worth mostly in their sexuality 0, posing for magazines or serving coffee naked isn't a "choice" it's a cultural inoperative for certain women. It has to so worth class and incomprehensible, yes-- but also being told "This is who you are"
