There is a social connotation attached in that prostitution is not socially acceptable except in certain levels of certain societies. Prostitution has always been and always will be a part of our culture as well as many other cultures throughout the world. Traditionally, it might be said that women find themselves in this occupation because they were forced into it by reasons of circumstances beyond their control. War, depression, drug habits, homelessness, or failed love relationships are only some of the reasons that comes to mind. The truth is that the profession still happens to be one that many women choose for quick financial gain not easily available elsewhere.
Prostitution serves, as a means of satisfying sexual desires for a fee.
The prostitute's attitude towards sexual behavior is not important in this choice of career, as there is not a sexual relationship as far as the prostitute is concerned. Under any circumstances is there a commonality among prostitutes. Many psychological problems have led to prostitution as well as have been a result of prostitution. Most of prostitution is linked with social problems such as drug use, violence, disease, criminal offenses, and family conflict. Although the view towards prostitution may be different throughout the world, the phenonomon of prostitution takes place everywhere.
