Just to be clear: the only common thing I was referring to was the trauma and the 1000 yard stare / 1000 cocks stare.An apt comparison: combat veterans and sex-workers. Though maybe the difference in the ways we're treated illustrates the injustice. Thank God my wife was able to see beyond kind well-wishing. This despite her recognition of the heavy impact that years of war had on my mind, which has made our relationship border upon horrible at times. It has brought many problems, intense nightmares, hypervigilance, and inappropriate aggression, but oddly she's never been disgusted with me for having served. Now it's true, I never lowered myself to fucking for money, but I was paid, and my chosen occupation required I do things that led to more harmful outcomes than orgasm. Odd that I'm pretty highly celebrated three times a year for that. Maybe pornstars and prostitutes just need better PR.
Soldiers may have to sacrifice their life so others can live safely. If one is a soldier one might directly or indirectly defend the very life of ones wife/future wife. Prostitutes sell their body for personal financial gain instead of working a less paying more arduous job. All she did for her husband/future husband is making his life less peaceful, more problematic and more miserable.
