Description:
|
The image of victims of human traffickers and the image of independent prostitutes do reflect reality, but each prostitute is her own exception to the rule. Women, who are victims by the letter of the law, turn out to possess an enormous strength to survive difficult times, whilst the seemingly more independent fulfil subservient roles in the private sphere. However, the social isolation of prostitutes is stereotypical - isolation caused by secrecy towards family, friends, partners, and by leading a double life. In daily practice, prostitution operates as a subculture with its own rules and standards. It should be considered as a service provision based on a socially accepted demand, and a demand that is fairly significant to boot. |
