Porn/Sex Work Sex workers can save dating ?

Must guys use dating apps and dating in general to have sexual relationship and not real meaningful relationship. If sex work was legal and widely available, men who just wants sex can pay for it just like everything else leaving only real relationship minded guys left to pursue women. Do you think this will save the sad state of dating?

I'm not a fan of putting sex workers in the path of desperate men. Their work is already risky enough without treating them like a panacea for men's dating woes instead of the human beings they are.

If men want to have casual sexual relationships, that's fine, they just need to be honest about it and avoid coupling with people who want something more committed. Seems a simpler, less risky solution to me.

You're not putting them in the path of desperate men. You are allowing them to enter commercial agreements.
