Prostitution

Something that has been going on for thousands of years. Is it becoming more common? Or is it becoming more and more accepted in society today? The fact that it’s become legal in some countries such as Amsterdam could indicate the answer to that question.
Although prostitution is viewed as bad some women actually have good intentions, which are to provide for their family and they see this as the quickest way to do so. There is however many prostitutes out there that are only selling their bodies to support a drug addiction or are being forced to prostitute themselves against their will to benefit their "pimp". Many find it hard to get out of these circumstances and fear for their life if they try to do so.
So in some circumstances the prostitutes are not the bad people. They are the people in need.
In my opinion prostitution is wrong no woman should offer her body in exchange for money, they should go out and get jobs like normal people, but I suppose its a thing that will never go out of fashion, as long as there are desperate curb crawlers willing to pay for pleasure there’ll always be prostitutes.

I think you had a good opening question to this blog entry, "are they bad people or people in need?" like myself you've acknowledge the fact that women can become prostitutes to either support their family or a drug addiction. I agree that this is way too far, and a very degrading way of making money. I also agree that curb crawlers are just as bad as the women prostituting themselves and if it weren’t for them, maybe prostitution wouldn’t still be going on.
