You actually don't know the difference between prostitution as a personal choice (due to some economic problem or just to earn money) and as an industry in the capitalist world. For example, read the statistics where prostitution exists as an industry. In the communist countries like USSR and Cuba, prostitution was nearly ceased to exist while in capitalist countries it has become an industry and for example in europe, mostly girls of relatively poor and less developed East europe come to Western Europe and are involved in sex industry. So my conclusion is Prostitution existed in the early history of mankind due to economic problems and adopted by slave girls and lower economic strata of societies but in capitalist world, it has increased enormously as a sex industry. This is how economic system of different ages shaped prostitution. You are fond of talking without any knowledge.
This "log kia kahen gey' mentality exists largely in the urban lower middle classes otherwise poor families in the villages and cities work with their men. And read my earlier comments carefully, I wasn't against working of women. I was critiquing the economic settings of capitalism where women and men are seen as commodities and not as humans or members of a family. And yes I think hijab is also related to economic system. Morality of every economic age is different from the other.
You are fond of telling people they don't know anything, aren't you? Your analysis is so divorced from reality that it is embarrassing to read it. Countries like Cuba were and continue to be sex tourism countries.
Furthermore, contrary to the popular belief, women or even men don't always pursue prostitution because of purely economic reasons. Your analysis stands true only in certain societies and regions where poverty is found at obscene levels and women are treated as inferiors (that is, they can't get a decent job). However, your analysis fails miserably in societies which support the poor and the weak. For example, in Canada there is an appropriate welfare system for the economically weak people to get by financially. Even the refugees (non-citizens) in Canada can get free housing and monthly cash support. A person pursues prostitution in Canada not to survive economically but to finance their expensive hobbies (drugs, expensive cars, expensive handbags, HD Tvs, SmartPhones, etc.). Needless to say, some people pursue prostitution because it is a very efficient way to make a lot of money. These people don't want to work the boring nine to five jobs and make only one-tenth of what they can make by only working three hours a day. Majority of them are not uneducated either.
In Pakistan as well, there are prostitutes who drive very expensive cars.
The bottom-line is that these people don't have the leaned skills to make as much money as they want and therefore they choose the profession of prostitution. It's not a survival battle. Hence, it is even more important that people should not stay at home after education. Instead they should contribute to the society by working and should continue the process of personal development.
Furthermore, it's a myth that only the poor immigrants are involved in prostitution. This image is portrayed by the racist media. Got to Las Vegas, you will find more american born and bred prostitutes than the immigrants. The immigrants are an easy target for criticism because they are easy to isolate visually. Also, the immigrants don't have that many acquaintances in the new country therefore they do it openly. Meanwhile, people who are born in a country do it in a more discreet way.
How the hell is woman a commodity if she is reducing a morality rate by helping a pregnant woman in a village? You know that a pregnant woman with complication can die if there is only a male doctor in the village, if her husband is a conservative guy? The problem with this argument between you and I is that you have forcibly involved capitalism in it. This is exactly why I asked you to start a new thread.
No, Hijab was never a product of economics. Yes, women were considered a property and were often abducted in the past. However, the issue was the same in the Mongol society but there was no significant Hijab there.
Hijab is a function of lack of trust. Lack of trust in women who are considered inferior, can't protect themselves and can't control their lust. Lack of trust in men who can't control their animal urges and instincts.
