Re: Marriage and prostitution

I thought we were talking about "sex work" as prostution-- ie., sex in return
for money-- not as work as professional "therapists offering counselling,
masseurs offering massage, etc. I wonder what is involved in this business. Do
therapists offer physical sex when a client goes for mental theraphy, or vice
versa? Probably, I have not met any.  What is the theoretical purpose of calling
counselling "sexual work"?
