I would gladly demonstrate my very progressive politics by dehumanizing a woman who clearly was molested as a girl and has been told by men like me that the most empowering way to process this is to objectify herself, and engage in sexual acts with men who don’t care about who you are as a person, or about your well-being!” Violet says he assumed his peers — “millennial-zoomer cusps with art degrees and hard-ons for progressive politics” — would be “prime clients.” After all, these were “youngish liberals” who claimed to “support sex workers and the decriminalization of their profession.” Blanchard helpfully points out that which is true: johns are not just lonely, ugly, old men who are desperate for physical affection and love, but can’t find it, so are forced to exploit abused women. In reality, all sorts of otherwise eligible bachelors, married men, powerful men, men with girlfriends and families and kids, pay for sex. “Some research shows that clients of sex workers tend to have their first experience of paid sex when they’re young, hot, and in their 20s, despite having more opportunities for sex than their more aged counterparts,” Blanchard writes. “ In two different studies, three-quarters of arrested johns and slightly less than half of online clients using sex work review websites first paid for a sex worker when they were between the ages of 18 to 29.”
