Prostitution


Prostitution, in the UK is illegal. There is an estimated 80,000 people in the UK involved in Prostitution. So, is it a bad thing?
I think yes it is, although for some women, it is the only way they are able to make money.
The red light district in Amsterdam is well known all around the world for its regulated brothels. The prostitutes have regualr STI tests and the brothels are clean.
The reality of prostitution is sometimes brutal, including child abuse and exploitation of adults. Films such as Pretty Woman highlights realities of prostitution and how different social classes in society see it.

Brothels, although illegal are much more safer than prostitutes having to walk the streets and jump in poeples car for business.

I also think prostitution is definately a bad thing as it has the potentional to tear families apart.
