One of the oldest professions in the world. Blue Lake Casino should make it legal and claim it a right to their soverign rights….what a money maker that would be. Kind of like the disneyland of the north.

The police indicated to me that these women are usually heroin or meth-addicted and more or less enslaved to their pimps, or think they are, a la the classic paradigm.

Angel:
The sad truth is that most women who turn to prostitution are the victims of molestation, abuse, rape or incest.
The other truth is that there are highly successful women who are educated and uninhibited who choose to work as prostitutes. But these are more the exception to the rule.

Many women go into prostitution out of desperation. They may come from sexually abusive backgrounds and have extremely low senses of self worth. They may have turned to drugs to escape from their pain.
What these women need is rehabilitation opportunities. (San Francisco implemented a program where first-time prostitution offenders could have the charges erased from their record after completing a counseling and job-training program).

At least when you are away from your child working 10 hours a day you can have a sense of pride in what you do.
Scratch the surface of these women and you will probably find a lot of shame, guilt, and a sense of worthlessness and desperation. What is easy about going through life like that?

Just my 2 cents, but I think you are being ignorant and failing to see the larger context of sex work. It is not easy. It is depressing. And most of the time women are subject to further abuse or rape.

As for the strong, self-actualized, healthy sex-workers out there…I think they offer the population an excellent service and should be given full protection under the law, health benefits for full-time workers, and std and drug counseling.

Why is everybody so quick to judge these girls? I don’t see anybody saying anything about these disgusting tricks and pimps exploiting these poor girls. They use them for their money and sex then go home to their wives,girlfriends,daughters. So sad. The women are the real victims here
