I understand, but respectfully disagree to a certain extent; it's not all about perception but... IRL, and also in this game (as well as many others here), of course women who sell their bodies (be it as porn stars or as prostitutes) are [portrayed to be] mostly villified, disrespected, socially-degraded, slandered... but not by all of us. Labelling any woman a whore is a symptom of not only a total lack of respect, but also of a socially-perverse mind... that these "mindsets" are prevalent in our societies is indicative of the real level of humanity that mankind has achieved so far. Education helps to some extent, but it often feels like a slow and almost pitiful struggle against the vaste horde of the intolerant and the ignorant that dominate our societies. This is not only applicable to these women but in general to anyone seen to be different to perceived "traditional" roles or anyone who looks different in whatever shape or form; we are all malleable as children and ripe for being indoctrinated by other people's prejudices, just as it was done to them. Thinking for yourself, not accepting what others dictate or tell you is often difficult, and always tends to be a more lonely path to tread; but at least you can make that choice for yourself.
EDIT sorry, that was a little serious
