The most ancient female professions. Anthology of carnal love: women of the most ancient profession of different times and peoples

The oldest profession in the world, as they say, is the profession of women who sell their body or as love says. "Salad love" - \u200b\u200bprostitution. The world with this kind of trading is familiar from those times as soon as a person realized himself different from the animal. And it seems to me, and I am more accurate that men who had power and strength were the founders, the woman was a commodity. The foundation of the worldview and the ability to make money on a woman, as at the source of pleasure and gave rise to this ancient profession.

Perhaps the origin of this type of activity has other roots, but the fact that the man sought to find a woman who would have implemented that he could not realize with his wife, bride. The giving love women, or rather selling it, could fulfill the wildest fantasies of men, which caused the demand for this type of activity.

There are many places where you can use the services of such women, these places are called public houses, because anyone can come and enjoy the moment of pleasure. In fact, it is illegal (at least in Russia), but for some reason it was not in priority in power of any country in the world to eradicate this phenomenon.

Prostitution is a light and fast way of earning for women, although there are men allow women to use their services. For ordinary people It's all, however, causes disgust and even condemnation.

With the development of civilization, an oldest profession, more or less smart women and more attractive, stopped sticking out on the street in search of the so-called customers, and switched to finding and waiting for work on the phone. Sometimes their photos can be found on the site. Their meetings occur only with those men who have a certain status, most of them made a career and money and can afford to use the services of these women, because they lack time and good luck in normal relations. Such girls often accompany men at various parties and events. Dear gifts, money, accommodation, sponsors, so accepted now to call such men, how to treat it? Condem or not? You probably read our note about the Amazon women who are engaged in prostitution for the sake of survival, for the sake of a child. And the husbands of these women are Amazon sit at home and are waiting for them from work.

Women carrying out such a type of activity as prostitution, in those countries where it is officially not legalized doing their work underground, because it does not have respect in society. The underground prostitution generates a number of even more negative manifestations in society described, in one word - crime.

Reference:

  • Prostitution is allowed, but is strictly regulated by the state with the help of specific, aimed solely on prostitution, measures (examples: Holland, Switzerland, most of Austria, part of the states of Australia, etc.).
  • Prostitution is allowed in such a state as Turkey - selling love is officially registered and can carry out their activities.
  • Since 2000, prostitution has been legalized in the Netherlands - it is allowed to open public houses. Officially marked prostitutes have all civil rights working, including gaining social benefits. As a result, the legalization of prostitution for the first years of the XXI century, the income from the sex industry amounted to approximately 5% of the national income of the state.
  • For the citizens of the European Union in 2002, prostitution was legalized in Germany. Democratic legislation in relation to the most ancient profession was also manufactured in Switzerland, Hungary, Italy, Australia, New Zealand.
  • Significant differences in relation to prostitution in various countries contributed to the emergence of a very developed phenomenon in our days, sex tourism. Residents of Europe and America go to sex trips, based on their own, they attend Asian countries (Thailand, Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka), East Europe and Latin America.
  • Recently, on television in the news showed the street of red lamps and two women practitioners ancient profession. For 65 years, they are twin sisters, all their lives earned only such difficulty, one of the sisters works to this day. But they are known to the whole world, they became thanks to the written memories that contain not just dry facts and also the proportion of humor. So think what it is shown? Is this profession so dangerous? Of course, if it is not allowed in your country, it is not worth measuring by the law with the law.

How to treat this profession today? Everyone has their own opinion. My, for example, against. Female body should not be a commodity! And at the same time, who, besides women, can delight lonely men who do not have fate and life in the direction of finding the only one.
