Meaning of prostitution
• The term prostitution comes from the Latin prostitutio with the same
meaning as the current one; This in turn comes from another Latin
term, prostituere, which literally means 'to display for sale'.

• The World Health Organization (WHO) defines prostitution or

Commercial Sex Work (TSC) as any “activity in which a person
exchanges sexual services in exchange for money or any other good”.
• During the last few years, work related to sex –and desire– has been
normalized, which very recently was seen by some almost as a
scourge: from the world of pornography to prostitution, including
striptease dancers. Movies or series like 'The Girlfriend Experience'
have done a lot for this, but also the increasingly popular notion that
all work implies the sale of the worker, to a greater or lesser degree.
• So it's no surprise that many of the problems (and benefits) that
strippers reveal in a Reddit thread sound awfully familiar to
employees in other fields of work. If Natalia Ferrari already told us
that she was better "working as a whore than in a McDonald's or as a
telemarketer", drawing a parallel between the junk job par excellence
and a job that allows her greater freedom and much more substantial
earnings.
