It really just depends, every individual and case is different. It's more about all that surrounds the decision to be a stripper (or porn actor or sex worker) than the act and its specific implications about how it bucks archaic patriarchal attitudes about women's bodies being the sole property of their chosen husband. Was there some deep void of self-worth they used attention and money from men to fill, vis-a-vis feelings of power? Was there unaddressed abuse that this was used as a band-aid to cover up but never fully healed? Were drugs involved to numb emotions to do the work when the thrill was gone? Was there acute mental illness that led there, has it been meaningfully addressed in the meanwhile? These are all areas of concern that should be considered, but it's not as if every person in the industry is afflicted by any and all of these. I mean, a sex worker seems far more likely to be kind-hearted than a sociopathic drug dealer. A stripper would be far more appealing than an unrepentant doper like Shelbo, for example. Of course, it's been made clear by her own testimony that Suzy Hamilton probably has mental illness that would make life with her unstable to the point of dysfunction. Even if it didn't ever manifest in sex work. Which is ultimately why her husband finally divorced her. On the flip side, I have seen with my own eyes guys using their looks and even casual sex in vain to push against lacking self worth and self image. If they could get paid at the same time for it, they definitely would.
