Respect my existence or expect my resistance
I don't think it's disgraceful to work as a prostitute, far from it. But to imply that she is, simply as s tactic to diminish her, IS disgraceful.It depends, though. If you think women who work as prostitutes are disgraceful, then it's a disgraceful thing to suggest. If, on the other hand, you think it's spending public money on sex that's disgraceful, then you can condemn it without condemning the woman. And being paid for sex is prostitution.
