CatholicsAreKewl Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 someone should start a new thread that focuses on this prostitution issue. I'm sure as hell too lazy to do it, but it might be interesting. I'm already getting bored of prostitution. I might start another thread about modesty.
Ice_nine Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Well, I HAVE been wondering if my participation in the local naturalist community is something the kind people at phatmass would approve of . . .
Nihil Obstat Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 I'm already getting bored of prostitution. Excellent. There are many people and organizations who will help you get off the streets and turn your life around. :like3:

KnightofChrist Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) I'm a bit confused, KnightofChrist. What do you mean by "slaves to prostitution"? Well first and foremost they are slaves to sin and the father of sin. But that can be true for any of us that sin. Still even from a natural stand point prostitution can be slavery. Because 1) people are being bought and sold to other people, even if it is on a temporary basis. 2) While I recognize that it can be a mutual agreement between let's say a free agent and a John. When there is a pimp or the like involved it most certainly becomes more like physical slavery. The lie about the pimp that is often repeated is that he protects the woman for a price. But what he is really doing is protecting his property and means of income. Even in the case of a pimp I suppose, perhaps, there could be a fully mutual agreement, but the pimp would still be claiming some sort of property rights over the bodies of women. Again once there's a pimp involved it becomes varying degrees of slavery. From being some sort of indentured sexual servant to sex slave and from just verbal, mental and/or financial threats to physical abuse and murder if the women trys to regain her full freedom.
