I have never really understood the reason some ladies resort to prostitution and hang around corners, filthy bars, crazy clubs or other places at night looking for men that will patronize their veejayjay. When I'm driving at night past some areas around the Island or the mainland, I see beautiful girls strolling on the road with skirts that look like panties and they will stare at a car passing by with hopeful eyes. Some bold ones will whistle at the driver or push out their chests as soon as the headlights shine on them, the way a trader would sing about what she's selling as soon as she sees a prospective buyer.

What amazes me these days are the crop of girls who are into prostitution, when I sometimes try to get a glimpse of their faces, I see young, beautiful and well dressed ladies very similar to those you see in the afternoon walking in broad daylight. Those kind of girls that you may even admire their physical shape, cleanliness, swag or manner of speech when you come in contact with them. It made me begin to wonder how anybody especially men who are hoping to settle down can now differentiate between a prostitute and a decent working-class lady.
I remember when we were growing up, some of us saw those aunties in our neighbourhood that people would refer to as "Ashewo". One thing I remember quite well was that they never looked tidy, they always were unkempt, loud, dirty, brash and everything a man's wife isn't. They present themselves as typical women of the night, they do not go out of their ways to look tidy, they just bare enough body parts to make a man's manhood respond. So these ladies were usually scantily clad, heavily made-up, smokers, drinkers, with bad hair and very bad manners.

| How much? Road side. |
Today, our ladies of the night seem to have stepped up. They are now finer than the average Nigerian girl who is searching for a boyfriend, fiancee or husband to make a woman out of her. Thanks to the various spas springing up in Lagos, the prostitutes in Lagos now look more decent than hardworking chicks out there as most of these prostitutes have the best skin you will ever see. These girls are mostly very light-skinned because their work is at
night, they do not expose their skin to the harsh glare of the sun, so
they look very radiant when they come out at night. They dress well, they even wear expensive clothing and they carry themselves in a dignified gait. Unlike before when they wore rags, painted their faces and demonstrated by the road side in a loud way.
So a thought occurred to me, if these girls can go an extra mile to look considerably decent even though they sell their bodies for money, why can't they just do it the "right" way. Do not get me wrong. These girls have already signed up for a life of debauchery, anal sex, blow jobs, sado-masochism, the risk of being used for rituals and other horrific things by choosing this particular job, right? They are well aware of the fact that their lives could end any time considering that they deal with total strangers whose intentions may never be known to them until they get into a hotel room together. They know that they can contract vicious venereal diseases as a result of having too many sexual partners and may not have a normal future because of what these diseases does to the reproductive organs. So why do they hawk themselves by the roadside? It's a high risk job, yes, but make millions while you are at it.

My point is this, guys will always approach an attractive lady when they see one and there are places where ladies can go if they wish to meet men with serious money. Parties, high-class clubs, shows, anywhere but not the road side. Why do prostitution of #2,000 per day? Seriously. Get a legal job, especially one that entails trying to bring clients to invest in your company, sleep with all of them and get your cut out of it, shikena!. That's Legal prostitution, it is way better than the curbside strolling they do at night which is not as lucrative as targeting rich men, climbing the corporate ladder and living a life of luxury all with the power of your body since you are selling it.

| I'm sure this isn't what it looks like, hehehe |
Some girls go into prostitution for years and have nothing in their account by the time their bodies have responded to gravity, sagging like a balloon filled with water. There's a famous lady in Lagos, she's very endowed and all. People think she's a high class prostitute, calling her all sorts of demeaning names and she does not even mind what anyone thinks of her as she struts her stuff at any opportunity she gets. She flaunts her half-naked body whenever she feels like it and pays no attention to snide comments about her liberties. Today, she owns mansions in Lagos, she has properties in expensive residential areas that those who vilify her all the time cannot dream of acquiring in 20 years. Now, this is what I'm talking about! Even if she's a prostitute, she's building herself with her body! It's not like she's half as attractive as the girls we all see on Lagos roads at night. This particular chick knows her business well and she's already living life like a normal working class lady.
So all those girls trying to be classy on the roadside at night should just quit bothering themselves. Whether you wear Prada, Gucci, Armani or Louis Vuitton, you will only appear as wearing rags as long as you sell yourself short by catwalking on the road for all sorts of men. A wise man once said, anything worth doing at all is worth doing well. Share your thoughts!
