Life / POLISH TEENAGERS TURN TO PROSTITUTION... [77]
First, its bizarre to say this is about respect. It has nothing to do with respect, it is about economics. Many young women can earn a large amount of cash and very quickly by using sex as a commodity. They are not all drug addicts either.
Second, it is unfair to say this is limited to Polish people. There are a number of Eastern European and African communities in my country where the women frequently act as prostitutes.
It was quite shocking to me when I encountered it first, as we did not tend to have this in Ireland in the past, but I'm quite sure that some Irish young people must be doing the same nowadays.
And I don't think this is so much a shame for one particular country, just a sign of the times really.
Sex is a tool that women can use to push themselves forward, the same as strength and violence are tools which men can use to propel themselves.
It is simply more socially acceptable to use sex as a commodity, and it always has been.
