Lol, so someone's 'learning difficulties' prevent her from getting and holding onto a simplistic part-time work, 'forcing' her to do prostitution, but does not prevent doing full time education? Something is wrong there.
I want to be a sugar man baby, where is the equality!?
They blame this on higher student expenses yet clearly only women are able to get money from sex so how are the men able to survive? Why not just be honest? Women are selling their bodies not because they need to but because they want to.
> Women are selling their bodies not because they need to but because they want to. How about "because they need to AND can" (whereas the men might also need to, but cannot, there's not as much of a market).
Earlier quoted context omitted.
zero hours contracts and gig economy shit jobs.
Got any evidence for that?
> 18.7% of people on “zero-hours contracts” are in full-time education, compared with 2.3% of other people in employment

So where does equality fit into this? I don’t think this phenomena is so rampant that double digit percentages of women are doing this (though I have no idea), so this whole thing probably isn’t that big of a deal. But honestly, if this entitles women to an easy and maybe even comfortable way of making big dollars in their youth/lack of talent, what will we do to enable young men to also pay for school/living/etc in their youth? I mean if I could send some self destructing photos to older women in college with no social/professional ramifications and make 1-3k a month, I would never have worked the shitty part time jobs I did. Doesn’t really seem like an egalitarian idea for half of the population to be able to take the easy path while the other toils away.

> clearly only women are able to get money from sex While the opportunities are greater for women, men also get paid for sex (predominantly, though not exclusively, by other men.)
The solution to this apparent inequality is... hire/promote more women into executive roles.

I’ve known girls who have done sex work. Mostly smaller things like selling used clothes, or pretending to be into a guy for gifts, but a few who straight up were prostitutes. They always had a story of “having no other choice”. The reality every time (again, from those I knew. Not trying to generalize and claim I know them all) was that they weren’t “forced” into it at all. They just preferred that work because they made way more money than what they’d do working and it was easier. But they didn’t like the fact that sex work would negatively impact their future (jobs, relationships, etc), so they came up with victimhood stories to justify it. No idea if that’s what’s happening here, but if I had to wager money I’d wager it’s along those lines based on my experiences.
I see a few others in here mentioning that universities handle learning disabilities. I think if you’re so mentally disabled that you can’t hold a part time job, it’s probably not a great idea to invest 100k into a college education. I don’t know many jobs that require a college degree that are easier to succeed in than working for a min wage job at 10-20 hours a week. So sure, the universities are more accommodating. That’s because they want that 100k pot on your head. If the reality is you can’t hold down part time work for mental disability, I think we need to have yet another discussion on where the ethical line is for universities endenturing students futures for their short term financial gains.
