This is the kind of narrative people need to hear. Thank you for converting your vulnerability into essay form where people can actually hear the truth of what’s going on. We live in a backwards society thats sells sexual dysfunction, disempowerment, and enslavement to the masses like it’s empowerment or something. Crazy times. But stories like this have so much impact.

Yeah, it does sound bleak. The idea of human intimacy being reduced to an algorithm-driven, hyper-commercialized transaction is unsettling. In a truly dystopian setting, the performers might have little control over their own work, being forced to conform to ever-escalating audience demands just to survive.

It raises deeper questions about technology, capitalism, and the way human connection is being reshaped. The more digital our lives become, the more we risk turning even the most personal aspects of life—like relationships and sexuality—into commodities.
