On Prostitution

Okay... in Sociology class today, we were talking about Capitalism and how Karl Marx found it "alienating" in these certain aspects: alienation from coworkers (no talking, less breaks etc.) alienating from the product (the people making the product can't even afford the product.) alienating from human potential (you only concentrate on your job, and the singular talent or skill you need to complete it. You don't grow as a person.) Anyway, we were challenged to find, or create, a job that isn't alienating. Carlo found the answer, prostitution. You are not alientated from others, because you have lots of free time which you can spend talking to others, going out, or talking to other members of the Puta org. These interactions also cause competition between prostitutes. How does one beat the competition? You do that by improving the product. So prostitutes in turn improve themselves by excercising, having their faces cleaned, etc. Aside from that, prostitutes know that clients want different types of women and some would rather just talk rather than fornicate, and it is their job, as prostitutes to please their customers. So they read up on acting, they read on different positions, styles of pleasure, etc. They read up on news, sciences, many different things in order to strike conversation. In other words, they improve themselves. They in turn realize potential. Self improvement then destroys alienation from human potential. Alienation from the product is a bit of a problem because most prostitutes don't actually enjoy prostitution. They don't enjoy what they do, so in a way, they are alienated from the product of prostitution: sex. Here comes the saving light... After a lucrative prostitutional practice, you have earned enough money to invest, or open a business. Then you can stop prostituting and start a business. Which makes you a capitalist at the top level, which bridges no alienation. Although... if you do enjoy the sex as a prostitute, then there's no alienation whatsoever then... ergo stick with it. The only reason people wish to leave prostitution, is because society looks down on it. Over time, when the social view is changed, prostitution will be a renowned profession, earning great respect mostly because it takes a lot to be a prostitute.
