Lucy,
I feel I really ought  to apologise for any upset I may have caused you. It seriously wasn't my intention and whether you believe it or not, actually my position as regards the sex trade is not a hostile one - in fact I have met and worked with four street working girls in the last five years as part of my job, and I have a huge respect for what they go through in order to survive.
What you choose to do to support yourself and your family is none of my business and certainly I don't have the right to judge, nor would I. My motivation was really to question the way society tends to denigrate sex workers by suggesting a way in which that profession is really not so different from any other way in which people might spend their time. I was clumsy and awkward in the way I approached it, and I am sorry.
