PSA Gets Men to Look at Prostitution Differently

Here’s a look at prostitution from a male perspective. It’s quite interesting. The whole prostitution thing when viewed from the eyes of men as the John is sometimes quite glamorous. Imagery of hot, young women in tight mini dresses at one’s beck and call to server one’s every sexual whim. But when that viewpoint comes from a man as prostitute, the viewpoint is very different. Not all paying “johns” are hot, young women in tight mini dresses. Far from it. Man or woman, Johns are just regular people and regular people are from from the seemingly glamorous fantasy.

But the message in this PSA from the European Women’s Lobby which is aimed at men isn’t to call attention to the fact not everyone is hot. It’s to make men aware of the fact prostitutes are likely disgusted by you, would never have anything to do with you if you weren’t paying and wished you’d understand the harm you’re doing when you hire a prostitute.
