Prostitution is the exchange of sexual services for money or goods. It has existed in various forms throughout history and is often referred to as the "world's oldest profession." The legality and social acceptance of prostitution vary widely across different cultures and countries.

Opinions on prostitution

“High end escorts used to be a legitimate cachet bc prostitution was broadly seen as so low class it was reserved for the very destitute - street walkers or back pages girls. Finding a woman who could double as a date companion was rare.

But prostitution has now proliferated to the middle class. Instead of elevating the profession, it has merely stigmatized modern women. You can find prosties lurking amongst college educated girls from “good” backgrounds, or at the very least, “normal backgrounds” - considering the broader disintegration of the family unit.

It’s been a disaster for the still vast majority of women who feel pressure to uphold the moral duties exclusive to our sex - class, elegance, prudence, choosiness. It’s devalued women who are firmly holding out on their stock value by making them less visible in comparison, but also, not as easily had or bought.”

Bruce Cumings“Somewhere between 100,000 and 200,000 Korean women were mobilized into this slavery, along with smaller numbers of Filipinos, Chinese and a handful of Westerners. Pae Pong Gi was the first Korean woman to come forward and tell her story with her identity unprotected . She did this in Tamatani Tetsuo's 1979 film, An Old Lady in Okinawa. "Like so many other comfort women,' George Hicks writes, she "remained in the same role with the American Occupation Forces" on Okinawa. Yun Chong Mo's novel, My Mother Was a Military Comfort Woman, was inspired by the sight of a drunken American soldier dragging a Korean girl down a street in Seoul.”Bruce Cumings1997
