THE PROSTITUTION HALL OF FAME

Botticelli's Venus (circa 1485) -

Venus was the patron goddess of prostitutes

Supporters of prostitution's criminalization argue that prostitutes are immoral, desperate, miserable, abused, and ashamed. In America they can get away with this paternal stereotype because criminalization hides the successful, happy, and proud prostitutes (usually call girls) from the public eye. The women who are willing to work the streets (street prostitutes) frequently are desperate, abused, and addicted to drugs, however, this drove them to the streets - prostitution did not. Because of criminalization street prostitutes are the only sex workers the public sees despite the fact they are a small minority of all sex workers.
