Sorry, meant contraceptives, duh. Also, I’m aware that they did have mildly scientifically backed methods for preventing pregnancy, but pregnancies are a genuine concern for modern sex workers, right? Did just way more sex workers get pregnant way more often back then, or were there genuinely methods to make pregnancy avoidable enough to not have a kid once a year if you’re having sex that much?

They had contraceptives. And they also had access to abortion. And infanticide was widely practiced and legal pretty much everywhere until well into the modern age. Heck, my grandmother saved a 6th child (and a 5th girl) by secretly feeding her the first 3 days after parents left her exposed, and that was in 1950.
