History has mainly witnessed prostitution as an ill doing against women. Some have been forced into prostitution by men and some have been forced into prostitution by their families. In some countries today prostitution has become a profession or a means of income for livelihood in a legal nature. Though in most countries where prostitution is permitted a license is needed not all who engage in prostitution have a license. Certainly in Muslim countries prostitution is legal by no means but still cases of prostitution are unearthed even in Muslim countries. This act is certainly mere cruelty against women as most women who engage in this act would prefer another job which pays the same amount unless they are addicted to the act.
Let us bring to our minds some common images of a woman, “an innocent child”, “a sister” most loved by brothers, “a mother” most respected and loved by all men. Can we equate any of these images to a prostitute? Think deeply! Women are to be respected. They should be provided their rightful place in the family and society. Forcing them into acts such as prostitution is like forgetting that a woman brought us to this world. It’s certainly mere cruelty. Of course, there is nothing anybody can do if they decide to be prostitutes on their own without any force enforcing them.
However the big question is what do they do? There is certainly a difference between selling a product and selling all the raw materials or the whole capital. We find prostitutes carrying out the latter act mentioned in the previous sentence. A woman can certainly be very productive; they can achieve high in many fields using their intellectual and physical capacity. Thus they can keep their beauty and caring for their emotional attachments, to be used as they wish to serve and satisfy themselves without causing any harm to themselves psychologically or physically. So we see what prostitutes do.
A bigger question is.”Can a country itself be viewed as a prostitute?” Imagine a country as a human figure and the head as its brain. The body certainly follows the brain’s instructions whether forced by external sources or not. If a country sells its main assets , though we call it leasing for a long period, leaving no power with the country and the future generations to come to manage the main assets, it can hardly be less than prostitution.
There is plenty of scope for me to be wrong and at the same time to be right. However, at least I know that there are some people who think exactly like me in this context.
