It's their job
Prostitution over the years has steadily become a popular form of work. While it is not moral in the eyes of most, it is how some women put food on the table. Women often fall into a job like this because they were not able to finish school to get a better job, no one will hire them because they were never taught certain skills, or they've had a bad history. And who's to blame them? If they can't get hired somewhere else, the next best option is prostitution. It's easy, they don't have to clock in, and they make more in one night than they would at the local diner. It seems like a positive option to get them and their possible family away from the firing line of poverty. All these women have to do is sell themselves. It shouldn't be that hard. But obviously there are hazards to this job. It's not safe and the women become caught in the world of prostitution, it could be mentally and physically damamging, and it is illegal in every state in the US but Nevada. But these women who fall in the hands of prostitution are determined to provide for their family and have a life, so they boldly accept those facts. I feel it takes strong woman to become a prostitute, freely giving to every man that pulls along the side of the road, holding back all the regrets and emotions. So this is their job. It's how they survive. Should putting these women in repeatedly be the right thing to do? Is there not another way to combat the immoral conduct of selling oneself? Surely, the United States could come up with a better alternative. They could open clinics to help these women finish school and get better jobs, teaching them acceptable social skills and conduct, teaching them how to pay their taxes, and making sure that their income is reported. Of course in my mind I think the nation should reach out to these women instead of punishing them. All they want is to be loved and accepted. But the world is not perfect.
