I swear the world is so cucked largely coz of US. US has disproportionate influence on the rest of the world. Imagine if sex work is fully legalized in US, the ripple effect on the world as a whole would be huge. If NYC legalize sex work, it will spread on to rest of US, just like how marijuana legalization gradually spread and now pretty much half-legal.
Potential effect of legalized sex work i can think of:
less money to virtual adult schemes like onlyfans, paid porn, premium porn, paid subscription etc.
more girls would therefore be "forced" to real sex work, further driving the price down.
less simps and white knight cucks fighting for crumbs of pussies when pussies are devalued to the point that an average wagecuck can easily afford to fuck one every week or so, without fear of getting arrested, and easy to find escorts online.
culture will gradually change. in tv and movies, gradually, simping would be less and less common. this will trickle down to the rest of the world with the huge influence of hollywood and netflix and so on.
