Prostitution

Be prepared to discuss these questions from the readings for Tuesday:

1)  You are a prostitute. What factors might have contributed to becoming a sex worker?  Under what conditions do you work? 

2)  You are a john.  What reasons might you give for frequenting brothels and paying prostitutes for sex?

3) What reasons/ factors keep the women from fleeing once they realize that they've been sold into sex slavery/what the conditions are actually like?

4) What efforts might be useful for curbing sex trafficking?
