Sex Workers Protest in India

One protester had this to say: "May day is labor day. Sex workers are laborers and sex work is just like any other profession. It should be considered as a profession and not viewed in any other way."

The Reuters reporter said that there are around "2,000,000 female sex workers in the country, most of them trafficked or forced into the work by poverty."

Overall, legalization and regulation of prostitution seems like a smart move.

Personally, I doubt there are few if any people who actually enjoy being a prostitute. Trying to empathize and imagine being prostitute is revolting and makes me want to tear my skin off.

Lastly, prostitution is the world's oldest profession? This is what Reuters claims. Wikipedia had this to say: "It has been described as 'the world's oldest profession.' Others would dispute this claim supported by the fact that hunting and farming were likely to have taken place first in human history.' LOL. I am going to have to lean towards the latter. Something tells me food was a priority before sex. Furthermore, what could they have been paid with?
