If you really want to get technical, all wage labor is tantamount to prostitution. You're temporarily selling your body for the use and benefit of another. Just because it's profit and not an orgasm doesn't make it any less objectifying. Your boss is actually and literally using your body and if you stop putting out a desirable performance with it, the money and favor will dry right up. Of course, this comparison will make some people very angry, because it amounts to me saying that you're no better than a whore - and you're not. Of course, this really only offends people who have a low opinion of whores.
