(I guess if freelance prostitutes were banned and they could only work for large corporations that could theoretically happen, if respectability for brothels were really important and the demand were strangled somehow?)<br/></p>\n</blockquote>\n<p>If sex work were fully legalized you\u2019d totally see some kind of Juillard for Courtesans but the graduates from would make eight figures so who cares</p>\n<p>You <i>might</i> see some sort of lower-key credentialist gatekeeping as the industry professionalized, like with cosmetology, but I can\u2019t imagine it\u2019d go too far given how entrenched sex work is as DIY employment. I could see that happening for prodommes and other sorts of \u201ccomplex/risky\u201d sex work, though, like after a scandal hits the news about someone who gave a handjob wrong and made someone\u2019s dick explode<br/></p>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Charm school.
