I dunno, being able to say you're putting human trafficking on ICE suggests the name is already a good one.
But honestly, I don't think renaming that is on-brand for an administration that [albeit temporarily] renamed the Ministry of Peace back to the Ministry of War. The world of 1984 is a traditionalist/progressive fantasy, not a reformer/classical liberal one.
Yes it does.
"I want sex lol" is a Reason as Good as any other, and privileging sex beyond anything else is just as crooked as demanding labor for free.
An assertion that there are some prices which are deontologically invalid is ultimately an assertion that labor can be demanded for free, especially when no price the laborer wants can be asked aside from those you have conveniently (and without any associated moral hazard whatsoever, I'm sure) declared priceless.
A condition reality imposes- in this case, that a lack of shelter is fatal- does not create "unwillingness" on the part of those that require shelter (and an inability to agree on price would be fatal to that party anyway). The only condition with respect to reality is whether you accept the prices willing to survive, or whether you would rather die.
(Additionally, I understand that, for those who live in times where scarcity for some things is no longer the natural order, that acknowledging their privileges are indeed merely privileges induces some existential discomfort. If I perceived my sociofinancial salary was dependent on nobody understanding that, I would not understand that either.)

Of course you would think that, because you can't answer the question in a way that doesn't unfairly create a duty to one side.

Ah yes, the "I'm sufficiently antisocial on my own, so why can't everyone else be" solution. This isn't actually a problem with the women, by the way; much like it isn't actually a problem with the men who aren't self-aware enough to notice it.
The reason we tend to end up with people who are Cluster Bs to some degree, or at least have some of that behavior- is that it's very difficult to find ourselves, as it were. So what ultimately ends up happening is that, much as the proto-feminists note, is that we kind of end up boxing off/contain the other member. In other words, we settle, for what you may (or may not) know in the workforce as a "shitty" or "subpar" boss, because we're not made of stone and actually do require human companionship.
And that whole "I get to be the authority and better than you" thing is just as much a payment from participant to participant as financial resources and everything else is. We don't teach the nature of this exchange very much[0]- mainly because the question makes men and women who should notice it very uncomfortable, especially in Western nations, and especially especially in New World ones. That attitude has a lot of pros, but this is one of its weaknesses.
Empirically, when women are being pilloried as subhuman irrational whores who need to be forced into line for the future of the race, it's uncommon to see another male poster speak up to contradict those claims.
Yes, because doms take not being better than [their] subs very personally, and it's very important for their proper functioning they get to do this! Both partners do this from time to time; women usually exhibit it differently than men, almost like they compliment each other or something.
[0] By the way, the core of the BDSM movement are mostly autistic weirdos who have both noticed this and have it under control, or use it to keep it under control (or are weird/open enough to cosplay or cargo-cult it). This is why it usually makes relationships go sideways when one or more non-autists get a hold of it, especially when they start saying "liberation".
Yes, it's kind of the conservative (which the Left are, make no mistake) thing. Has been since at least ancient Rome, for that matter.
