Yes and for that we need literal sci-fi technology.

Until that day we will need to work to some degree to uphold living.

Yes, we are limited by our material conditions. I'm not a moralist.

But sex work is not one of the forms of work we need to uphold living.

You certainly are a moralist.

Sex workers play an important role in society, especially in helping ND or otherwisely abeled people.

And sex work is coercive and exploitative, like all work. Sex workers are forced to play that role, just like we're all forced to do our jobs. And what's it called when you coerce someone for sex? Work is wage slavery, so what does that make sex work?

EDIT To clarify, I'm not speaking specifically about erotic literature. I actually don't think it should be treated the same as all other so-called "sex work." But no one should have to have sex with me just because I pay them.

I’d love to get paid for sex. Here I am, giving it away for free when I could be rich! ;)
