My disclaimer: This is not based on some surveys, interviews and especially NOT BASED on personal experience.
Prostitutes plays a part of every country's society. It does not matter whether it is a prosperous or impoverished country, prostitutes will always have a role to play in the society.
I guess I no longer have to define what a prostitute does. But for the sake of the readers who confuses their dad's mistress for a prostitute, here's a little description. Prostitutes sell their body, time and companionship to an assortment of creeps in exchange for money or sexual desires. If she is owned by a pimp, majority of her wage goes directly to that scumbag (pimp).
I will avoid being irrational in this article and try to put myself in a prostitute's shoes.
IMAGINE - I am a prostitute.
Motivation. I am going to need an ample amount of guts for this kind of livelihood.
What motivates me?
Money. This will be a primary reason for me to become a prostitute. If I was not given the proper education, my family starves, or did not have a supportive unit of family, a career will be scarce from my view. In order for me to cope up, struggle for survival, I will take the easy way out - Prostitution. But this is not just about providing bread for an empty stomach. Addiction to certain drugs can be the reason why I am drawn to prostitution. The need to provide my needs. Wanting more but not having enough.
Sexual Motivation. This is rare. Presenting my body to random people in exchange for pleasure is a rare type of disease (?). Filling in my sexual pleasures through prostitution and money just comes in next is a rare type. I agree, this can be a sign of psychological dilemma. No person, even I, on its conscientious mind will scavenge the streets to find a mate that will primarily fill her sexual needs. Behavior of a nymphomaniac (sex addict).
So there, for readers, you might have anything to add on my article, Just give it a go.
