You walk down a street with the sun gone down about six hours ago.In the poorly lit streets are skimpy dressed females and the sight of a male amoung the females shocks you.You literally form an “o” curve and assume they are customers of the “sacred” commodity and walk on.
You feel a pat at your back, and there is the “retailer “-the male you thought was a buyer of the “sacred ” commodities.
You shake in fear.
He then asks if he could render his services that night.
It comes to your mind that males could actually become prostitutes
*************************
Male prostitution is older than we may think or conclusions we have come up with calling this generation a lost generation. The practice in ancient world of men and women selling sexual services in sacred shrines can be traced back to Hebrew Bible or old testament. Males are also attested to in Graeco-Roman culture in the new testament amount other ancient sources.
Again, it is important to avoid generalizing how men get into prostitution.Perhaps their childhood memories are full of sexual abuses that haunt them and others even pushed to use of drugs-such people suffer most.
No string attachment is driving reason to this vice ;
Most males would rather have sex without all the emotional attachment that comes with it;for instance marriage or relationships;Men have become cowards of responsibility .
monetary rewards come in folds for indulgence in this vice.Male Prostitution has become a way to achievement of quick. Monetary gains.we have sunk too deep on human gratification that is a result of greed and impatience
Sex trafficking is a multi billion dollar business that accelerates male prostitution. Most males are kidnapped and taken in as sexual partners for older women or even males.on the otherhand,victims don’t fully recover from the same .
It hurts to imagine that a male species in your lineage is likely to get involved in this vice passively or actively. It calls for much unity in character moulding of our future society.Our generation brags of being introverts, greedy and woven to this is the “don’t judge me Attitude”.-the crux is used to shun any difference in opinion and beliefs between people.
In conclusion, the thirst for riches and wealth is slowly eat up our generation where patience and endurance is not practiced.In the right time,we will have what we deserve. Let us shun male prostitution.
