On the subject of prostitution, the article by William Sanger on New York Prostitutes I found rather interesting. Some of the reasons they had for becoming prostitutes were so horrible, not from the stand point that they were horrible bu that their own families and husbands had left them to this as the means to support themselves. I think that so often we get caught up in the "they volunteered for it" frame of mind (not that some didnt of course) that we sometimes lose sight of the idea that for many they were as manipulated into the profession as some of the Chinese immigrant women.--Mary P. | On the subject of prostitution, the article by William Sanger on New York Prostitutes I found rather interesting.
