Prostitution!

I was reading a book, where its written that the hero goes to a prostitute and falls in love with her and then eventually gets married to her in end. This is not a new concept you will find the same thing in many other novels and loads of other movies. They always show that these sex workers are good natured and that it’s the circumstance that forces them to do such things.
But do we really take that into account in real life? People tend to look at these people like some bloody good for nothing people in the locality. If we think on it, it is because of prostitution that girls and ladies are able to live without fear. If not prostitution, the number of rapes would have been high. Its like if the people would have not got satisfied by some prostitute they would have hunted down innocent girls in the locality. It would have got difficult for girls to be out of the house at night, or even go to school or college alone.
Come to think of it, I don’t guess that the sex workers are doing this with their will, its something like there is no other way out to earn their bread and butter and that’s why they have to do this. They do threat the fear of getting dieses like AIDS, but “its better to die with a dieses tomorrow than to die with hunger today” is what they feel.
