[quote=Anonymous]Just wondering what's less shameful -- never mentioning it because it's too taboo, or mentioning it in a neutral way with the expectation that the person on the receiving end can incorporate this information in their life to the extent it's relevant? I personally think that the "shame" of sex work accrues to the user of the sex worker. IMO, sex work is an abuse of power. Sex work exists only because of sexist stereotypes, inequities of money and power and opportunity. IMO, I'd want to know about a history of sex work in my SO's past not only because of the possibility for STIs, but also because such a history of abuse would be a very relevant piece of information in understanding him/her. Sort of like knowing that your SO's father used to beat the crap out of her. Shameful secret in a way, but not reflective of her, just incredibly powerful part of her past that will continue to have an impact. [/quote]
