Which Article Helped me the Most:
The item from above that helped me the most was the excerpt from the Britannica Encyclopedia about prostitution. This piece helped to broaden my thoughts on what prostitution is thought of. It helped me see how other cultures viewed prostitution and see some of the losses and gains of prostitution socially. I learned that in some cultures prostitutes are used to help others worship the god(s) that they serve.And I learned that it could be legal in some areas, but still looked down upon. Another thing I learned was how prostitution in some places is used as a way for girls to acquire a rite to puberty.

Interesting that your topic is about prostitution because I was listening to the radio and watching TV, both have something to do with prostitution. I learned that 1) prostitution is the last resort for women/girls who are on the verge of homelessness 2) prostitution is the only way women/girls can make money to send home to their families in poor countries and 3) prostitution is used as a way to exchange for drugs. I think your paper would be interesting to read.
