But it's not a difference most find compelling. And I wouldn't say prostitutes are never some kind of victim. Many engage in it "When things are rough," or however you want to put it. Of course, it's also true that not all prostitutes have suffered from physical abuse or poverty. Porn is certainly a kind of prostitution, and some people actually enjoy "acting" in it.

People turn to jobs at McDonalds "when things are rough" too. So I don't think that there is a monopoly among prostitutes in that perspective.

The difference as I see it is there is a sizable population who have religious/moral "EWWWWW" reactions to "the oldest profession" and virtually nobody outside of PETA thinks McDonald's engages in immoral activities (frankly, their sodium/fat content is probably *way* more statistically dangerous than prostitution, especially in a controlled environment).

I do get so tired of other people limiting *my* choices based on *their* religious convictions, tho.
