(62,536 posts)That eases my mind a lot because those girls were really teens and quite underage and it made me sick to think that they were prostituting themselves. It reminded me of this really depressing movie called Lilya 4-Ever. (Hell, I just went and posted on IMdb about that movie...)
My brother got married at a really downtrodden place off of Bridger Ave. and we saw a lot of women walking around there (he showed me the place that got him hitched) that were dressed to the kilt, so maybe they weren't prostitutes (or maybe they were drag queens?). It was really sketchy. And I live in a bad neighborhood here in Colorado and for me to say it was sketchy means something. I've personally been shaken down 4 times and shot at once, so, I mean, I wouldn't have wanted to get out of the car there at night. Really scary and just uncomfortable feeling I was getting. Hell at one point I made my brother run a red light when I saw a bunch of really sketchy people hanging out (told him I'd pay for the ticket if he got one; this was at like 2AM).
Anyway, it was some kind of experience. Thanks for cluing me in about that and easing my mind a lot there. I may be against prostitution in general (I consider it a kind of wage slavery, however, I support sex worker rights, if such a possibility existed) but child prostitution? Horrible. Just horrible.
