Prostitution And Poverty:
“Prostitution” is one of the most important factors in evaluating the social-economical and moral conditions in every society and is rising up in Iran. Women are not immune from the political-social tensions which are a result of religious governing in this country and their painful, restricted life varies toward being worse and worse day by day. They are known as the first and last guilty because of their generation. Because of the traditional culture and male chauvinisms idea in the society, the women’s problems are not dealt as much as other problems.
As a logical and true solution in dealing with prostitution, everyone should change his/her views regarding to this issue. Prostitutes are not lost people and can change and vary their life styles, because they are human.
Surly hating and disliking, lashing, killing and hanging and excommunicating from family and society are not solution to this problem, where as they are the victims of violence, lawlessness, cultural, sexual and economical inequality in sick and infectious society.
The roots of such problems in every society should be discovered and analyzed in a scientific manner and find solutions to prevent this problem and reeducate them to begin a normal life.
