Response to Mandys blog on prostitution...

I agree with the comments made in this blog http://mkvdhillon.blogspot.com/. As with Mandy's view, I believe a prostitute can only be so if the person has given sex in exchange for money. To except money and then not provide sex makes that person definately dishonest and a theif but not a prostitute in my eyes. I think this point is the same for the clip we watched of breakfast at tiffany's. The exchange of money between Audrey Hepburns character and the gentleman was a misunderstanding and did not make her a prostitute. The man assumed that if he gave the money he would be given sex in return however this was never promised. She was a theif for taking the money but is redeemable as it was the mans perogative to give it to her in the first place. It seems that prostitution is pretty important to our economy though.

Apparently as a nation we spend more on sex than we do going to the cinema! http://www.channel4.com/life/microsites/P/prostitution/
