The comparison is a bit misleading.
Forcing someone to play a game will not be punishable but morally questionable.
Forcing women into prostitution is punishable, morally and ethically questionable.
If MC knows something that Sage does not, but should, he should warn her.
If she already knows it, it's a different matter, but anyway MC should warn her that something is going on in her sosority that could cause her trouble, and this beyond the ethical issue of the restaurant (being in a porn game I guess it's not the priority).
what a surprise the state butts in and people go to jail... does it solve the fundamental problem? no it never does all it does is crystallize a situation where the state that is useless gets an excuse to oppress and limit peoples personal choices!
But if the MC tells Sage that is insulting her intelligence, perhaps what will happen is forcing her to admit what she knew all along and people do not react well when being called on their bullshit! Its been going on for 2 years and Sage is not dumb she does not know because she does not want to know, her constant anti-rumors talk is probably already a denial mantra for her to try and keep her plausible deniability!
Prostitution can never be an ethical question, ethics only applies to your actions when nobody else is there to control/judge you! Ethics is the judgement you apply to yourself!
Its a moral question of whats more important freedom of choice or whatever excuse the autocrats find to limit your freedom, sure they will say safety or public health or whatever, buts its always an excuse!
the question that arises here and that is why i brought it up is how far is pressuring someone is legit, just like the coach Q believes she is doing whats best for her girls teaching them valuable skills and helping them play into their strengths! Since the social pressures and expectations are gender differentiated a basketball coach is the best example i got for what Q is doing!
Yes society will consider it wrong but that´s because society are a bunch of hipocrits that scream freedom for women and then decide to remove their choices! Not much of a choice if you do not get the skills either way, just like a basketball player being tall is not enough the same goes for women being attractive and young is not enough i mean it is but not if you wanna play on the billionaires league!
So yes my only concern is how legitimate is Q pressure towards Camilla Maya and Mona is acceptable? for Camilla it seems totally legit she goes in willingly! For Mona also she accepted it her reaction to Mona is because she must protect herself from the goody goody white knights! As for Maya the proposal was never even made! Only the legalist moral can be used to blame Q!
And i understand that in accordance with the society rules its illegal but i only concern myself with whats ethic and moral and if a law is unjust but endurable i will tolerate it but if its unjust and immoral then its my obligation to rebel against it since my tolerance makes it unethical to my beliefs!
There is nothing wrong with prostitution for as long as there is no privation of freedom from those engaging in it, and this goes both ways because jailing dudes but not the hoes falls into this unjust bullshit!
