About 4,000 Brazilian prostitutes have been reportedly
making whopping sum of money in on the ongoing 2014
FIFA World
Cup in Brazil.
These séx workers have been servicing fans
from nations around the world in Rio’s Vila Mimosa. The
world cup in Brazil has attracted an estimated 600,000
international travelers including thousands of alcohol
ingesting,
adrenaline pumping men who Brazilian prostitutes may
convert into clientele and cold profit. Prostitution is a legal
job in Brazil and so in preparation for the large English
population, free English classes were offered in the
cup city of Belo Horizonte.
At least a thousand séx-workers
showed up to the classes in order to perfect their English
vernacular.
Minas Gerais State Association of Prostitutes president,
Cida Vieira, told Huffington Post reporters that, "English will
be very
important to communicate with clients during the Cup.
They'll have to learn how to work out financial deals and
also use a
specialized vocabulary with sensual words and fetishes."
Vieira has specialized the course to mostly include erotic
phrases as well as hand gestures that will prevent
confusion on set
acts and prices. Although prostitution is legal in Brazil, the
organization of a brothel is not. To get around this road-
bump many Brazilian bars act
as fronts for brothels that are set up in back of the store.
Tucked away in back alleys, up twisting flights of stairs, the
brothels of
Brazil live on in secrecy. Surprisingly enough more than
half of the World Cup prostitutes were not prostitutes a
month ago. The huge crowds of men have
opened up lucrative business opportunities for the
otherwise impoverished citizens of Brazil. The average
monthly income for a
citizen of Brazil is around $330 a month.
While working the
World Cup streets, women can easily make five times that
amount. Mel, 20, is one such woman who recently joined
the ranks of the world's oldest profession. Mel told Daily
Mirror reporters, "I
became a prostitute three weeks ago. I know there will be a
lot more custom for the World Cup. I use the money to
support my
family, pay the rent, the bills."
Whether prostitution is morally acceptable or not, the fact
remains that Brazil is an impoverished nation with a slim
middle class.
Families and individuals must do what they can in order to
survive. **It was also reported that many girls ran into
prostitution just because of the World Cup holding in Brazil.
Then what will happen
to such ladies after the world cup?**
