Another holier than thou article based on one interview from one dumb cop with nothing better to do at 5:00 am in kitchener, save maybe sucking back some jelly doughnuts at Tim Hortons.
Sure there are some crack addicted street walkers out there i am sure, but there are also crack addicted cops, reporters, and politicians i bet too. Even in Kitchener.
So what.
The article is somewhat slanted and implies that all prostitutes are crack whores, were traumatized by men, etc., which simply isn't the case. Yes there are risks associated with prostitution, maybe more so than your average stay at home mom, but there are risks in any job; more garbage collectors are injured on the job than cops.
It's just more sensationalism to sell newpapers.
Society as a whole, myself probably included in there, find the issue of sex interesting. Case in point, did anyone see what they did to Clinton ??
I guess the idea that anyone is a crack whore is quite sad. Personally, I would choose not to knowingly support any such habit, there are far too many spectacular SP's out there who have no such vices, view their clients with a healthy attitude, and are professionals.
The drug habit is a shame, but if someone doesn't want to change, they are not going to. I think there are programs out there to help addicts kick the habit, maybe this reporter could do a more investigative story on addictive drug habits of people out there and what got them into and why they don't want to stop. Oh wait, it's already been done a million times.
Bottom line, men need sex and you will never stop that.
If you are single, you need an outlet (and since women do not so readily dispense with sex, we have a need for professionals). If women were as easy as men, there would be no prostitutes, but they aren't, so there is. Maybe these married guys are in a sexless relationship, or their wives won't cater to their desires (head for example), what are you supposed to do then?? What's a single guy who needs some human touching supposed to do?? Truth be told, SP's help society by preventing sexual frustrations from building up to the boiling point in men. Men are most dangerous to women when they are overly horny.
Society tends to view men who frequent prostitutes as weak, or not in control. Did anyone ever think that they are simply doing what nature is comanding them to do - have sex with women. They use that thing between their ears and think, I don't want to rape, that's hurting someone, but I NEED sex. And well, here is a woman who for a fee will give me that, and satisfy my carnal urges. No-one is hurt.
