Successful obstetrician V/s Sex Worker

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

I would like you all to silently answer the query posed below.

I would highly appreciate if the query/answer does not generate a discussion but

just an intra-personal communication.

Do I need to have a low self esteem and be a victim of self stigma just because

I am a woman(or a man for that matter)depending on a commercial work for earning

my livelihood and supporting other members of my family from the monetary gains

of my activities.

My professional work necessitates use of a latex barrier (which I use with

religious sincerity) to protect myself and my multiple clients from infections.

The nature of my work involves the private parts of the bodies of my

clients(many of them just strangers) which are entered by latex covered parts of

my body.

I am surprised that people are not judgemental and moralistic about my work and

call me a very successful obstetrician.

Why are we so judgemental about commercial sex work then ?

Best wishes,

Dr.Rajesh Gopal.
