There ya go again - blaming it all on men! Clearly you have some deep seated issues with men.



Most women would not ever choose that, but some have been abused and believe that their entire being is about sex. Surely you cannot label all prostitutes as greedy lazy women.

Why not? Plenty of abused people go on to lead "normal" lives in honest jobs.




There will always be a percentage of women who do it because it is the most lucrative, least time consuming career available to them. But I think that they are the minority, and that it is women who are addicts, abuse vitims and the like who are in fact prostitutes you seen walking the street.

I certainly would not call them vile or morally bankrupt. Your morals might be very different if you were to walk in one of their shoe's for a while, or any one's shoes who has experienced the darker side of life.
