Readers Discuss Why Men Patronise Prostitutes

Is patronizing prostitution right for men? That was our last question of the day and boy has it garnered some crazy reactions.

On the website poll, 76 per cent of readers answered no, while the other 24 per cent support the idea.

The answers were a bit more complicated In Pulse’s Facebook community; with over 260 comments, readers expressed their views – breaking down the definition of word ‘prostitution’.

Hardegboyega Henry Hulasunkanmi wrote; ‘Shey na today u just knw say prostitution is as while as been a lawyer,doctor .accountant the only difference is just dat women no dey go skul to read prostitution....abeg try package whot u do 4 a living’.

Opara Onyedikachi Solomon sort of buttressed the point; ‘I personally call all woman whore, b'cos can u tel me a woman who sleeps with one man even d married and single. Some give out sex for different reasons, some to get jobs, some to their boss to keep his attention on them’.

Others consider it a necessity, ‘They sell SEX.... Men Needs SEX. Why they patronize them? Simple... Satisfy Sexual Urge’, Stanley Cleftic Chimezie argued.

Austin Joseph was quite elaborate in his point of view ‘D reason for dis act is very simple,, u cannot imagine what some men are going through in the hands of their so call wives and even girlfriends, so in other for them to be in a safe hands emotionally, they engage in this act’.

‘Naturally, no sensible man whether married or single will want to have anything to do with a prostitute, they do it out of frustration, it's high time women stop compounding issues for men and help them to inculcate that God-given manner. No man is an island, everyman needs a good woman beside him whether in marriage or in relationship’, Joseph added.
