Does being a stripper make you lesser than another person morally?
I (19 F) ((Adding for extra clarity I am not a stripper this is just my opinion as an outsider)) recently had a conversation with my boyfriend (23 M) about the morals of being a stripper. The whole conversation first started out with the question or rather more my statement that I personally believe that someone can be a stripper and be in a relationship while not liking or wanting their partner to engage with or use porn. (I understand that statement can be objectively hypocritical, but I'm honestly unsure on how to fully express my views on it.) Anyways, after that initial starter the conversation/debate turned more into a question on the morality of becoming a stripper in which he (I will refer to him as OP from now on) had brought up that you could just find another job, which yes someone could very well just choose not to be a stripper, but I do not think it should be morally frowned upon for someone to choose that as a job. I don't believe that being a stripper is the ideal job neither is it the safest which is why I do hold a level of respect for them which it has seemed as the opposite viewpoint for OP. I think I just have more open views when it comes to sex work and hold less traditional views morally than him when it comes to this, but the moral dispute on whether being a stripper makes you lesser than someone else with any other job honestly just rubbed me the wrong way and I'd like to hear other people's opinions on it. I do just feel like it is wrong personally to view yourself as morally superior to someone who works as a stripper. What do you guys think?
*Adding this after posting because I feel like it also holds some relevance
OP does watch porn, not currently because I have made it clear that it is a boundary of something I do not want my partner to be doing in a relationship, but does not view porn in a negative light or the average person who consumes it which was one of the main reasons it rubs me the wrong way that OP does not seem to respect strippers because it is such a similar topic and he was a consumer of content from a sex work industry (though he says he does not like the industry, then why consume the media) *((I know it's more complicated than just saying that, but oh well)). OP's whole viewpoint and points he made regarding his opinion just felt very misogynistic in nature to me considering these facts.
