So what is your solution to prevent anyone doing this kind of work?

Pointing out that it's obviously not going to be something that's "stopped" is realism yes (see above, re: "the world is grim") but acknowledging that and wanting to seek ways to make sure that anyone who ends up in that world is safe, is completely different to declaring it "none of anyone else's business" / "legitimate so long as people are of legal age" and simply "just not for everyone, but fine otherwise" is not realism, it's liberalism, and legitimization of that form doesn't just protect people who have already taken that path or who would have anyway, it encourages larger numbers of young people to see it as a legitimate career choice when they otherwise would not have, because they are being told from all angles that it's normal or even desireable. It tells increasing generationf of young women that the most valuable legitimate asset they have is their naked body, and that there isn't a problem with the huge numbers of people who are queueing up to buy it.

The numbers who move over into this from things likee TikTok is utterly horrendous - bringing along "customers" who have been following them since they were 15. And they don't see a problem with it when they're 18, or 20, or 25, because there's a lot of money in it and people in general don't do a whole lot of introspection in their late teens and early 20's... but the damage later on is often catastrophic.
