Prostitution and gender roles in social critique
The text argues prostitution arises from subsistence poverty and a male created dichotomy of women into good and bad. It critiques moral outrage, notes women face pressure to choose to sell sex, and states prostitution is not desirable as part of an unnatural female split. It cites debates on whether prostitution could be an honest form of sex or preferable to wifehood, while condemning the social systems that sustain the dichotomy.
