Silly Cissie! Don't you know that independent women never go into sex work? Or that poor women always stay poor and never pick up a taste for the finer things?

It seems a lot of the argument against the BY1 origin mixes up the problems with concept with execution. The first is mostly because, well, sex and whether you can have a strong female character involving it. The latter is all Miller. After thinking about it more, I don't really have a problem with the former, just the latter.
