Portrait of a Sex Worker!

“N., 19 years old. Sex worker.” “I work as a prostitute for four years now, because I need the money. My family knows what I do and says nothing. I am together with my ‘love’ (pimp) for seven years already, even before beginning this work. He lives here with me. He’s always been against this work, but since we have nothing, there is no other choice. My friends pushed me into this. I had a child, but he died from meningitis.”
