Economy worsens, sex trade finds new employees

More and more women become sex workers in bad economy

From strip clubs to porn websites to street corners, the amount of women working in the sex trade just keeps increasing. The trend often goes side-by-side with economic downturn—the same thing happened after the dot com bubble burst. Highly educated women who have lost work in business, tech and other industries are turning to the Internet, especially sites like Craigslist, as an easy way to find work with a company or build a client list as an entrepreneur.
