If we are to look at the negative; I'll agree with a large part of this; and also how prostitutes are being worshipped in the media as "glamorous, beautiful people" and their fake marriages. Similarly, more common prostitutes running around using each other for resources and comfort, lying to people to rape them by fraud, constantly trying to arouse people, spreading drugs to replace affection, calling their spouts of year-long whoring "monogamy", people having abortions, men running around on their women and abandoning them, people obsessed with money & looks, popularity contests, spiritual & secular wars, racial wars, theft being called a score, greed being glorified as success, superficial beauty, brainwashing through marketing giving people endless amounts of insecurity and offering them dangerous services & products, encouraging degradation. The list goes on and on.
The politics at current are completely bribed campaigns of dirtbags, because the masses look to cheap media outlets for popular opinions & candidates.
This country is going to hell in a hand-basket if people won't wakeup and start asking why Miley Cyrus is swinging naked on a recking ball on Vh1 licking a hammer, why Trump is speaking like Hitler, government approved radio waves are a revolving cast of hypersexualized erotic dancers, young girls have bulimia and nose jobs. A very high percentage likes to scapegoat the loving traditions in other countries for this free-for-all, soulless nightmare as being "trash that needs wiped off the face of this planet"—then wonder why everyone's saying the same about us.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. Are you saying the government should censor dissenting opinions, and censor offensive entertainment?
All I can say is that free speech is an extremely valuable concept. I don't agree with a lot of things said, or many forms of entertainment, but I damn right support the right for people to say it or create these forms of entertainment. The open expression of ideas is what makes democracy great. If you try to censor dissenting ideas or controversial entertainment, it makes the country not much unlike China or North korea.

Lots of people have to go into sex work because they have no other way of earning a living. Take the lgbt community for example, a lot of trans women only have sex work to pay for their lives/transitions because of discrimination, this goes the same for people of color and other minorities. I'm not saying prostitution is s good thing, but this is the only way for some people to get by.
Now, if more anti-discrimination laws were put into affect, or if more people were open minded, I imagine there would be a lot less sex workers in the US.
This is my own opinion, I don't speak for anyone else.
Yes, I mention the LGBT community again because this is a personal issue for me.

Discrimination does exist, but you're substantially exaggerating the extent to which it exists. A trans individual should not have to go into sex work to support themselves.
The vast majority of employers honestly don't care about an employee being transsexual. The only case in which they would care would be if that employee was being too vocal about their gender identity, to which case they damage the work environment by causing unnecessary drama.(for example, constantly scolding customers/clients for addressing them the wrong way). If you're constantly bringing politics and drama into work instead of focusing on the task at hand, then you are a problem. If you focus on your tasks and don't keep bringing up social justice at work, then they honestly won't care. I have a lot of traits about me that I used to want to seek validation for, but as I grew up I realized it's best to keep things to yourself instead of seeking the validation of others.
If someone is transexual and having trouble finding a job, it's likely their fault. Maybe they don't interview well, maybe they don't have the skills needed to do the job, maybe their field of study isn't in demand.
I'd argue that they'd face far more 'discrimination' in the "sex industry" as a result of people feeling uncomfortable having sex with a transexual, than in a real job like an office job. Someone that's a transexual should have far better luck in an office environment than as a prostitute.
