Gonna take this one step further and say if you draw adult content and don't support sex workers you should stop drawing adult content.
If you are working with/accommodating someone's sexual fantasies with intent to arouse, you ARE a sex worker. Period. End of discussion.

If you draw adult content but don't support sex workers, you're a traitor and a hypocrite. And a fool. Most of what I've learned on how to get by in my job came from sex workers. Everything we deal with, they've already been dealing with for much longer. And they have even less support than we do.

In the beginning, there were Hit Points. One then must ask, what are Hit Points? We all know the answer, even if you have never put it into words: Hit Points are an abstraction of Your Ability To Keep Fighting.

Easiest way to turn me off of your adult game is to portray sex as corruption. Like you have to fill up a corruption-meter to unlock a sex scene, or turn "pure" women lustful with demon magic or whatever.
I'd like to see a game that does the opposite. Sex up "corrupt" people to turn them good.
