The profession of prostitution
The idea of supply and demand in economics has been around since the beginning of human civilization. This economic theory explains the relationship between the quantity of a commodity provided by a producer and the quantity consumers are willing to purchase. However, much of society disagrees that this basic economic concept also applies to the world’s most well-known and oldest profession prostitution.
There is so much controversy and criminalization towards the profession of prostitution leading to growing disagreements and problems toward sex workers. The profession of prostitution should never have been a controversial topic when involving consenting adults. This profession continues to flourish regardless of the numerous bans and laws against it.
