There are only cons of being a pros !!!
"Every night meant death and every morning resurrection of her spirits. ‘People die once, I die every night,’ she thought. She moved ahead, plucking up a rose and smelling it and realized that she almost forgot how it smelled. What she remembered was the smell of the dingy cottage she was given, where every night men reincarnated in the form of hounds would pounce upon her, their starving claws boring callously in her body. The only good part about the job was that she was paid for it-the only thing that could support her three member family."
We know who we are talking about !!! She is always written about as like this. I wanted to name it Pros and cons of being a pros but then we know.....
Go for the news, news papers and stuff that wants to prove an ideal society you will find things written against her...they raise the point of banning prostitution...This that ...If Some womenz caught they want her on their live exclusive and sensational telecast. Lest some legal problem arise they blur the face part and thats it nothing more....Conduct interviews and stuff and big people will discuss upon arising indian problems and finally itz frgotten until another one is caught !!!
Come to the blogs and movies, you will find compassionate scripts dedicated to them... She is dedicated an ample vocabulary. Given a mike to voice her opinion... to say why she has had to choose teh esteemed profession and how she has 3 illegitimate children with 30+ strangers and yet survived to earn a living and sometimes even for a drunkard jobless niggard man !!! Sometimes she recites a poem of her daily schedule and sometimes she simply shares a word and sometimes her dream of bein normal...here normal meant a woman !!!!
There is a boy who comes every evening selling parathas to college students. Child labour is bad as well...We entertain it...Cant ban him on child labour reasons...He will loose earning...Best thing was buy things from him and give money... Who will give money jus like that and for how long if he doesnt sell them and simply begs??? Similarly a pros has to do something more than beg...She does pretty much the same as the little boy....But we hear the boy is termed as runnin a family of 5 and the woman nymphomaniac !!! How unjust !!!
People usually associate brash language, vulgar dressing and the body language with the word BAD and hence you will also find their attitude unsociable and hence rule them out as Unchangable and they had always wanted that and so on..... But dont think even for a while that they had to change with the time...C'mon they couldnt go upon thier job with sensitivity and gentleness which would have made their situation worser !!! They fail to trust you even if you try to make them trustable
These woman were so very unlucky that they couldnt earn a job being a house-maid or a school Aaya.... If only ...they were that.... they could get away with terms like low class and other lesser cruel words !!!

pretty nice post..
made me to think for a second.
well i agree what u say.
we term them very harshly, we see them as pests to the society.
let me give you an example.
when the govt banned the dance bars, the bar girls staged a protest because, they know only that way of earning and living.
same holds for the pros i guess,
but can't we change them?
can't we make them realize that there is a better life than this.
and to do so..
we have to eradicate poverty and illiteracy. see everything is related.
it's a vicious circle.
i wonder if you've reasd 'eleven minutes' by Paulo Coelho.....
