I think Gabriela was pointing out that the sex trade is a bit sleazy. It is unregulated and sometimes dangerous for the participants.
It attracts people at the margins of society. It is illegal in many countries and some people blindly associate "illegal" with "wrong".
When men are involved in the sale of a woman's services then the social dynamic is complicated even more.
Most people would not have a problem with an employment agent offering human resources but a pimp is seen almost everywhere as a pariah - and pimping is indeed illegal in the D.R.
It is all to do with people's attitudes towards sex.
Many religions tell us it is wrong, dirty, perverted etc. For me they confuse the act with the participants.
And as for the derivation of the word "SLEAZY" - slimy and greasy -
well maybe that is how people like their sex.:bunny:
Right and wrong are largely subjective - especially where no injury, oppression or material loss is involved.
As Frank Zappa said - "Anything you can do to have a good time without causing a murder"
- Morals are not absolute.
- Conventions change.
- The golden rule "absolutely" always applies.
Here endeth the rant.
