minus-squareDagwood222@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up26·6 months agoOld joke, but on topic. A professor asks a class if anyone there would be a sex worker if they were paid $1 billion for a year. Everyone raises their hand. He then asks if anyone in the class would do sex work for one night if the pay was $5.00? Class is all irate. “What kind of people do you think we are?” “I know what kind of people you are. Now we’re discussing the prices.”
