The number of miners still dying every year is pretty high.

Even in the 'West' (where mining has pretty much disappeared as a major occupation group, obviously) there are still semi-regular pit disasters. And then there are the occupational illnesses - respiratory diseases especially - that come with it, many of which are ultimately fatal.

This is without even considering, for example, the coal industry in China.

Anyways, has someone seriously compared prostitution to manual labour in general? That's hilarious. Ought to be pretty offensive - in different ways - to all concerned, but actually, no, it's just hilarious.

I thought mentioning coal mining would eventually draw you out of your lair. Wink

And, yes, it's been argued in the thread that there is no difference between menial labour and prostitution.

I am an incredibly predictable individual, yes.

Presumably the 'selling your body is no different to selling your labour' canard? lol
