Psychology of Child Abuse and Monetized Sex Work
Child abuse survivors may resort to monetized sex work as a coping mechanism to minimize the significance of sex and avoid confronting past trauma. This results in difficulty in understanding loyalty in relationships and emotional disconnection from partners. Moreover, individuals paying for sex work often struggle with emotional connection, leading to seeking pleasure without considering the emotional well-being of the other person. The emotional disconnect in both parties can lead to a complex dynamic where they overlook the emotional trauma involved, perpetuating a cycle of detachment and temporary relationships.
