Some say that a woman that trades her body for money is a whore, if that is the case, then a woman that trades her body for flattery and kind words is just a whore that is not paid as well.

About This Quote

This quote comes from a poem written in the early 1800s about a woman who is forced to prostitute herself for money. The poem tells the story of how she cares nothing for her body, but rather for her self esteem. There are many different ways to interpret this quote, but I think it speaks volumes about the way women are treated. If women are not valued for their bodies, why do we consider men to be less worthy simply because they do not have the same bodies as us? Men and women alike should be valued for their minds and their hearts, not their bodies.
