Prostitution!

Prostitution is basically selling for body for money. It is an extremely major issue within the UK and across the world. I do not think it is expect able within society as it is extremely dangerous and I believe it can strip away a persons identity and pride.

No body wants to have to sell their body to provide for themselves or their children but for some young females they have no choice in the matter as they are often trapped by gangs... and threatened with their life if they try to escape. "Most women enter prostitution because of lack of choice and many are coerced by pimps or traffickers" http://www.endviolenceagainstwomen.org.uk/data/files/prostitution_fact_sheet.pdf. Often young females from aboard are promised a new life with a well paid job and they will be looked after. However, as they are normally extremely young and naive they come over to the UK or other parts of the world and become trapped!! "Up to 70% of women enter prostitution before age 18 and the global average age of entry into prostitution is only 13–14 years old." http://www.endviolenceagainstwomen.org.uk/data/files/prostitution_fact_sheet.pdf

Prostitutes often have drug related problems, maybe it is block out what they are doing, and want to escape from reality??

I believe it is not just about the prostitutes, it is about the men who are involved with prostitutes, are they unable to control themselves.. and not have any thought or consideration for how the women actually feel.. and why they are working on the streets. Also, prostitution relates highly to violence and even sometimes death! over 60% of prostitutes have experienced some form of violence, it is extremely scary as they have no idea who there next client will be....
