I have seen the film breakfast at tiffany’s when i was about 12.
Breakfast at tiffany’s (1961) is the story of a woman on her own making her way in the big city.
A clip of Audrey Hepburn was shown in the lecture she was dressed very classy. In this film prostitution was represented as a very high class job.
There are many reason why people might get into prostitution for example they might not have enough money to support their family and the job they are doing is not earning them enough money so they can support their children, a runaway teenagers that are living on the street and they met someone who introduced them to prostitution, some people might think that it is an easy way to make money.
There are many women working as prostitutes and many working as escorts. In my opinion i think it’s easy to spot a prostitute because of the way they are dressed. Most of them look ragged and a probably high on drugs. But on the other hand i think it’s harder to spot an escort because most of the time they are dressed classier.
In this lecture there were three questions that were discussed the first one was: is it prostitution to take money from someone expecting sex, but then not to supply it? In my opinion i think that even if you’re not supplying sex to them and only taking their money i still think it’s a form of prostitution because you are still taking the money. But then on the other hand some people might see this as robbery because the client has paid to receive sex but doesn’t get any. But f the client wants to give her the money without getting what he came for than that’s his problem.
The second question was: if it isn’t then is it more or less socially respectable? In my opinion i think that it is not socially respectable because you are still talking the money just because you didn’t sleep with the person it does not make you a better person. It would be more socially respectable if you don’t take the money.
The last question was: If it is prostitution then how much is a reasonable charge? I think that would depends on how good you are, how rich your clients are and how much they are willing to pay you, also how many clients you have because the more clients you have the more money you make. Also if you have the same clients that keep coming back then you would raise the prices. But then that might mean doing more things to them.
Lastly i think that prostitution is a disgusting and dangerous profession for anyone to get themselves into things can go wrong you can get raped by your client, you can contract a sexually transmitted infection or even HIV.
