That's not at all what I said, nor did I say sex work is only provided by women. To be clear: people of all genders do sex work for various reasons, many of which are pressures that make it hard to discuss consent and power without spiraling off into increasingly complex scenarios. But when a teenager is involved, and the consumer is purchasing their sex work (whether IRL, on cams, or even just texting), the power imbalance inevitably favours the older buyer. It's not a gendered issue.
