I see your point. And I agree. I was just making the point that the “ruining” part already happened. Making public the ruin is just part two.
Repenting being a prostitute isn’t that simple. I know two women who were prostitutes (way long ago) and it haunts them, even though they have greatly changed. One has managed to overcome it more than another. And they didn’t practice it for long.
Prostitution ruins lives even if it’s secret.
How did it affect them? I remember the story of that Capitol Hill congressional aide who was doing this on the side. I have a feeling there may be more of this going on than most of us realize.
