“Whores” and Showgirls in Modern Society

In modern society, sex work remains stigmatized and mainly illegal, though there are movements dedicated to changing the status quo of labor rights. What is it about humans that makes them both disrespect, and simultaneously enjoy the prospect of witnessing a potential sex worker in action?

So I’ve been forcing Showgirls down all of my friends throats for a couple of years now. Jokingly I had threatened my straight roommates with making them watch Burlesque if they kept talking shit about Showgirls. Monday I finally pulled the trigger and made one of them watch burlesque with me, a movie i have not seen since before I started doing drag like 5 years ago, and during my viewing experience of that dumpster fire a thought dawned on me;

Christina Aguilera is straight up Nomi Malone’s next persona after she leaves vegas. Everyone is drawn to her, she burns when she dances, she’s a self involved cunt to everyone, she has no friends or family, but most incriminatingly of all; she litters. What an asshole.

They had to skip the sex scene with the not gay bartender because if we saw it we’d know she is Nomi because of the flailing.
