Living as a prostitute is living in a controversial life. Some people will look her negatively but some people will tolerate it. This became the topic in Rifka Annisa in a regular discussion on Wednesday (24/2). The discussion was about a film entitled “A secret diary of a call girl” with Ratnasari Nugraheni, as a facilitator.

This film is based on true story of a high class escort in London. She had to live in two sides, as Hannah living in religious family and Belle living as an escort. Belle had to face many men with different characteristics, especially a paralyzed client. She knew all about men thus she did not want to believe them.
Someday, she was falling in love with Ben and it forced her to leave Belle’s life. Unfortunately, she chose her life as an escort, as Belle and left Ben, his lover.

This film told us that there was a reason why someone became an escort. In line with the film, Niken said that we should relate all intrinsic aspects of the film with prostitutes’ lives in Yogyakarta. She added that living as a prostitute woman in Yogyakarta became the last choice. Meanwhile, in Jakarta, some people would think that it was only for fun.

Haryo said that the government should be responsible to this problem. For instance, government should provide enough jobs field and a good economic policy. He also talked about Doli, prostitute localization in Surabaya which has been closed now. In his opinion, closing prostitute localization would affect some negative sexual behaviors, for instance, the spreading of HIV/AIDS cannot be controlled. Therefore, government should identify more deeply about the effects.

At the end, Any, the moderator, gave a chance to the participants to make a conclusion of the discussion by themselves. It meant that the agreement or disagreement had some reasons. Therefore, they had right to judge as long as they had good reasons.
