  • i have no right to judge

  • I respect the services they are willing to give
    but fear the STDs they/others might get

  • No. I just pity them.

  • ofcourse they deserve as much respect as anybody else
    they are just doing their jobs and thats it

  • Respect is a big, overused word nowadays.

    It's often confused with being a decent human being.

    Respect is something that's earned, not being a dick to people doesn't mean you respect them.

    No, I don't respect prostitutes.

    Respect the person (if they earned it), not the job/gender/age group.

  • Respect? No Any time you are willing to sell your body for sexual use you disrespect yourselves. Why would iI respect them when they don't respect themselves.

  • I can respect certain circumstances more than just prostitution in its most abstract form.
    I find that becoming a prostitute when you have many other stable job opportunities at your fingertips to be wasteful, but I won't cast judgement on prostitutes who do what they do as a means to crawl out of the dregs and eventually reach a more conventional job.

  • of course. i have dated an active prostitute and it was fine.

  • Yes i would respect any woman. My neighbor upstairs keeps hitting on me and she's 28 she is a alcoholic and doesn't want to help herself but i respect her it just so happens to be that she hits on just about any Man especially when she's been drinking. But i wouldn't disrespect her cause she is vulnerable when she's drinking , she even tells me that she loves me when she's drinking. She has a Man so i don't want her plus i don't want deal with someone who doesn't want help them self.

    • True, I agree.

  • Since they are human beings, like all of us, I respect them. I respect any human being.

  • Yes. They go through a lot

  • I don't judge them at all but I am neutral like I don't respect them for it and I don't not respect them. I know that most of the time with prostitutes, they don't have an option, they are either forced into it by someone or they do it because they don't have qualifications and can't get any other jobs, things like that. And I know that some people do it just cuase they like it or cause it's an easy living, if that's the case then why should anyone care? They're not hurting anyone, they are just providing a service and if you don't like or want it then move on why waste your time criticizing and judging them...

  • Respect because they are usually doing it for money and to provide for themselves or a family. And i would take a person doing anything besides something super illegal that being homeless and begging for money.

  • I'm neutral

  • It takes some pretty big balls (figurative... depending on the prostitue) so sleep with any rando who is paying when they could easily be a crazy person

  • Depends on why she/he is a prostitute. Some places I have been there were people that would do almost anything for the $5 to get the next fix. I think one boy was about 15. He had a sign to give blow jobs for $5.

  • Even though they look for money, while getting their bodies used by someone, all of them still have feelings. And I respect it all.

  • Yeah

    • Why?

    • We don't know if they voluntarily joined the profession or they had some majboori (English ma Kya bolte ha? ) Sometimes people have a hard life which is tough and they had no choice

    • I got what you mean. :)

  • Not really. Only if they are honest about it later (when asked). But then again, respect is earned, not given.

    So let's suppose the average 20 year old prostitute makes money from horny dudes. I have by default no respect for her just like with everybody else but I also hold no grudges against her.

    Just a prostitute milking money from horny dudes. The worlds oldest profession of females. This is capitalism. We all gotta do something to survive.

  • Prostitute are fine. There humans you have sex and get paid. Who cares.

    • Who*
