most men are pretty much prostitutes themselves, only diff is they don't pay to sleep around. why do women always have to be labelled? what crock! men, you get away with so much bullcrap you know. you screw around all your life with other people's daughters and then at the end of the day you want to marry a "virtuous" woman. hiss!!  Huh

please think on this:
1st, assuming that you are Christian:
Please, never ever say the Lord's prayer again, if you say no (to marrying a repented prostitute. Because if you do, you're simply cursing yourself. Note that repented means she's/he's seen the error of its (just go to the neuter) ways, has asked for forgiveness, and is putting the old man behind her (no pun intended).
2nd, imagine this:
You are at the throne of Judgement, (realizing that no sin is greater than another), and you tell Jesus, well, I've repented of my sins e.t.c., and he says, well, how am I to know you won't go back to your old ways?

No one is more perfect than another; judge not, that ye be not judged.
If you know she's a prostitute, why are you going after her in the first place, unless if you yourself are the dirty thing you're so repulsed by.

hmmm!!!

And this idea of REPENTED PROSTITUTE,

although thats not the topic at hand, but i think even if there is a lady who was a former prostitute and now, shes REPENTED and trying to do something good with her life, why label her as a REPENTED PROSTITUTE. If God has forgiven such, if she has the testimony of forgiveness, who are we to label her as a REPENTED PROSTITUTE.

Why should we call ourselves Christians. Would  it be better for everyone to be a REPENTED SINNER?.

If old things have passed away and all have become new as far as she and God is concerned, then forget her past life, move on and let her move on in peace.

and if i may ask what do u mean by a decent girl? one who pretends? u can only not marry an ex prostitute if u know that she was one what if u don't know about her past, like the story of the wedding where all the men claimed they slept with the bride, she went out with them not sell her body to them, they broke her heart nd she had to move ahead and thk God she is finanlly married, are u guys saying u would marry only Virgins, because if u don't marry a vigin then she might be an ex prostitute food for thought.

I was trying to answer a question for myself,
I googled " can one ever love a prostitute",
Thus, find myself logged into Nairaland.

I am a female. Recently turned 20 years old.
I have been an escort for the past 5 months.
Please, continue reading.
I lost both parents when I was young and found myself in between foster care then adopted.
My adopted parents abused me mentally and physically and at 14 the court took me away.
To put it briefly as my intention is not to share my whole life story,
Delving into prostitution was not the most intelligent thing I have ever done.
But I know God loves me and keep me safe.
I pray everynight.
Recently, I got into med-school.
I would not be able to provide myself with a life beyond living on the streets and the desired education,
if it were not for my job. I am financially back on my feet and so forth.
Just because I was born into difficult circumstances, does not entitle me to a life of welfare.
I have great dreams and ambitions. So what, I have sex for money. I do not feel dirty. I know at the end of the day how many lives I will save. I am human. I have a heart. Therefor I deserve to be loved and treated as an equal. I would never advise my younger sister to delve into this lifestyle. There are parts of the industry that are terrible! I am fortunate to be well taken care of. But EVERYONE makes mistakes and EVERYONE faces a rut or two or three or more!!! (in a life time) NO this does not mean selling yourself is the better answer. Though, I do know I have shaved of 5 years of paying of debt so that I could have the time to go to school! (10 years-med school) I will make a great mom one day. I will provide all the love and attention to my family. I pray to God everday. I love life more than most people. I have lost a lot and am hopeful. It is rather ironic how much time society spends putting labels on groups. All this negativity allows us to do one thing. Loose Focus in our on life. When I was younger I never believed my goals were attainable. I never believed I could be loved because so many people have come and gone out of my life. To date, I have a wonderful family who took me in as there own KNOWING what I do. They accept me. Everyone has his/her own path to walk. I applaud this notion. What's more is I have great friends. Who love me for every flaw thus, who I am. My greatest pride and what brought me to rant is my loving boyfiend. We will call him D. D is my best friend and true love. I have all intentions on marrying this man. We find peace in eachother and believe in teamwork. I believe in honesty. I have not told him what I do for a living ALTHOUGH I white lied and told him I did it for a month in the past. He stayed with me knowing I tested out the industry. Things are going great and we are going to get married. I am not sexually active with him because in a perfect world I would be a virgin. Sex is Sex. Making love to someone you will be with forever is on a whole different level. Though it is no excuse for not have telling him. I am asking for your opinions, positive, negative, whatever they may be. I am open to it. Thank you for reading. Angie

well, i think its not good to condemn them outrightly;
we all have gory past that keeps re-echoing a sense of guilt within.  it brings a whole lot of relief when those past are communicated to people we love.  But then, u look forward and still believe your future is spotless.   

they are part of the society.

@ ALL
 This question off late has been in the front burner of religious and moral discourse. I was prompted to bring it here because I wanted pieces of advice which you guy have helped in giving. Please let us not be personal in all our posts.

Marring a repented prostitute, we should first of all redefine what prostitution is. and going by my understaning from my previous thread, it is not only a peron who stays in a brothel and sells sex for money and other material thing alone, but also comprise people with multiple sex partners. If your girlfriend has another boyfriend, she is a prostitute. I stand to be corrected. Let's not revert to name calling and insolent words please. Cool

A prostitute is I believe, one who sells sex for material gain as a profession; not just every girl who's had more than one partner.

Wow, this is one CONTROVERSIAL topic that has and will continue to spark up so many ''pointful'' comments as everyone has a point.

Now, let me add a teaser: Guys, would you prefer that a girl lie to you about her past because everyone has a past whether good or bad, and then find out the truth later???

Honestly, it isn't easy as insecurity, jealousy and possessiveness will be the order of the day. Do whatever your heart and brain feel its the utmost best for you. There are people out there who are ''good people'' and once you marry them, they become monsters. So which is best, a good girl who is a nag/bore/bad cook but will keep her legs closed or a former prostitute who is repented and will be faithful/loving, e.t.c. (Not that i condone PROSTITUTION because the girls that do it have no excuse, i mean why not sell chewing gum and groundnut and maintain your dignity than your ''fruit'' and be stigmatised).

The fact is you can love a prostitute and want to marry her, but the fact is problems will always come up u kno.
A lot of people go into something thinking they can handle it, but end up unable to cope. You can think you can cope, but then comes the day u and ur boys are talking about the girls u had and somebody brings up ur wife by accident. or when that drunk uncle calls ur wife ashewo in front of her kids and spills her secret, all that shit.

And i think a prostitute is a prostitute. a man that sleeps with women for money will not be looked upon as kindly as a man that is just promiscous, i don't think. Anyways, shit happens ya kno.

Was reading your testimony and copying it because I think it´s worth being read twice.
It really touched me.
Most people in this thread are talking like the blind about colours. You experience everything we talk about  yourself.
Thx for sharing your experience with us.
But do yourself one favour: Me, I think before u marry your friend, tell him everything.
Not at once but step by step.
If it is love he will abide at your side.
If not it ´s better to know now rather than after u are married.
Just think about it and all the best!!!

u  really  can't  give  a  yes  or  no  ansa,

one  can't  really  ansa  such  a  question  until  it  confronts  u,
i  might  say right  now  that  i  wont  marry  an  exwhore, but  who  knows , i might  fall inlove  with  such  a  lady  unknowingly   n  i  can't  just  stop loving  when  she  tells  me  much  later  in  the  relationship  that  she  was  a  whore, because  certain  things  might  have  pushed  her  into  it, <don't  be  quick  2  judge>, the  case  of  paloma  is  still  fresh, even  though  it  might  have  been  a  soap, but  such  issues  still  happen  in  real  life

Can I marry a former prostitute: No
Reason: Because there's every chance she could one day (in my company) run into (literally) an ex-acquaintance.

However, some guys will end up one way or the other (knowlingly or unknowlingly) getting married to a former prostitute/aristo-babe etc etc. Recall that Star, 33 and harp are still beer in different labels.

It's mighty hard to tell the difference these days. Just because one peddles her goodies on Allen avenue, and the other delivers from her hostel to your door step (bedroom) doesn't alter the fact that it's sex (pre paid or post paid)
