“Behold the “victimless” crime of prostitution. Hard to believe these girls would turn to drugs. Having sex with strangers for money, nothing to live for...”

Required reading for some of the sophomoric juvenilia posted here on FR regarding prostitution.

Disappointing to see on this site.

Most of the time, Ann's got it backwards. It's the addiction to drugs or alcohol (or both) that usually leads to prostitution. And unfortunately, it the law that turns what could often be a "victimless crime" into one where the prostitutes themselves are the victims.

Baloney!

Nobody is denying the calamity of prostituting for survival.

But, women who can command those dollar billing numbers aren't your typical hooker standing on the corner...advertising her wares.

They make a 6 figure income and can still obviously cut CDs.

Good post. It seems that many, or most, folks aren't aware of the definitive link between prostitution and a history of childhood sexual abuse. From one of the most comprehensive studies yet conducted:

Compared to victims of childhood physical abuse and neglect, victims of childhood sexual abuse are at greater risk of being arrested for one type of sex crime: prostitution...Among children who were sexually abused, the odds are 27.7 times higher than for the control group of being arrested for prostitution as an adult.

It's a stunning statistic; and, you're right, there's simply nothing humorous about it

I think most people here believe in personal responsibility.
if one chooses to become a whore than they should be treated as such.
There is absolutely NO excuse for such behavior to warrant any sympathy.
they are just as dumb as any Darwin award winner and deserves whatever scrutiny anybody want to hurl at them, humorous or otherwise.
Frankly I find it all hilarious. (Like the rest of us I do feel for the 3 daughters) and none whatsoever for the whore.
Besides, she's gonna be richer than all of us when this is all done.

Regarding prostitution, Well, I did tip the girl at Dunkies this morning extra, apparently making 5 bucks an hour pouring coffee to her is more appealing than spreading her legs to strangers for 1000 bucks an hour.

Do you really feel sympathy for the hooker? Did you see her pics?
Does she look desperate to you?
She probably has more money than both of us combined!!
