“Prostitution means sexual intercourse between a man and a woman aimed at satisfying the man's sexual and the woman's economic needs. It is obvious that sexual needs, even in a male dominated system, are not as urgent and important as economic needs which, if not satisfied, lead to disease and death. Yet society considers the woman's economic need as less vital than the man's sexual one.” IfsMenNeedsMeanImportantEconomicHe ManDiseaseMalesObviousSatisfiedSatisfyingUrgentProstitutionIntercourseDisease And Death Book:The Hidden Face of Eve: Women in the Arab World, Second Edition Source: The Hidden Face of Eve: Women in the Arab World, Second Edition

“The philosophers of industrialism, from Bacon to Bentham, from Smith to Marx, insisted that the improvement of man's condition was the highest requirement of morality. But in what did the improvement consist?
