The fucking Guardian, where 'sex work is work' calling out women for using cleaners.

God I'm so depressed with these arseholes

Sorry! Grin

It seriously pisses me off that I am not supposed to respect and appreciate the full range of skills and professions whereby women choose to make their living.

Why does cleaning get this spurious analysis and yet hairdressing doesn’t?

And just think about where that leaves poor women with few skills who would rather work as a cleaner for another woman than let a man pay to rape them

This exactly. I'm not bothering to read The Guardian article- life is too short.

The question is too stupid to waste time on.Sorry not getting at the OP but at the Guardian.

Well funny you said that Gibbins

Get your tits out for the planet. The first response was asking if these young women knew how long it took us to get rid of page 3.

Bloody Guardian would probably think it was really empowering if the cleaner was naked

Thank the goddess for Janice!

I have had a cleaner who is a man and he didn't identify as a woman whilst he cleaned.

What does that make me?

Don’t worry - Janice is on the button... as usual.

Because cleaning is women's work?

Because all cleaners are women?

Because outsourcing "women's work" to other women is feminist betrayal?

And people wonder why The Guardian is struggling for funding...
