The World's Oldest Profession: Prostitution



This has been such a controversy for many a days. Remember the great movie "Pretty Woman" starring the lovely Julia Roberts? Will that go down as a classic for our culture? This is also a profession not stranger to many a culture. Maybe I would consider spending a weekend with the guy for the price of $25,000...including two hours of sex? Hmm. He'd have to be disease and drug free and NOT a fatal attraction sort of guy. Of course, I wouldn't consider this now. I have a wonderful husband and children. But, if I were single and unattached and needed to pay off my student loans from medical school, this is a nice option. It's no wonder that at the Las Vegas strip clubs, you may find 'contracted' workers earning supplemental income by night (or day in the 24 hour town). Then the lady's 'real' job is lawyer, doctor, teacher, etc. Unethical to you? Unheard of in your pristine and innocent walks and circles of life? Well, it's reality ladies and gentleman. The oldest profession in the world.
