I cannot express my prostituted Self without speaking to the death of hope.
I found hope made prostitution unbearable. To know and allow hope to be too real, when prostitution appeared to be endless, was the main way to lose sanity.
But to life without hope was in itself a living death.
So welcome to Catch-22, welcome to madness of what it is to be prostituted.
To be prostituted is live with every route back to hope being blown up as you reach out for it.
To survive, it becomes essential to say to yourself – I don’t need or want hope.
Instead you put on the armour of the Happy Whore.
You paint on a smile for each and every punter as all that matters is to boost his ego. In the lost hope, he will torture, rape or play at killing you.
You learn not to show pain or fear – that was in a past where hope of a future existed.
You forget that there is a world outside the sex trade. You forget your past with friends and family who knew you were never meant to be prostituted. That is too close to hope to be remembered.
Hope gives life and a drive to a better future. That is impossible to let in when the sex trade has made for that you are a full human with the right to not be tortured and raped.
Hope is the silent voice saying – you never belong in this hell. You should have dreams for brighter future.
You should not be made into a sex toy for each and every punter to used and discard.
You should never be just holes to be fucked, never just a body to bashed up, never be just an object that any man can kill with no consequences.
Hope is crying out – get out, get out, please get out.
So now I exited completely, I can listen to hope, and know its silent voice helped to save my life.
