About 4,000 Brazilian prostitutes have been reportedly making whopping
sum of money in on the ongoing 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. These séx
workers have been servicing fans from nations around the world in Rio’s
Vila Mimosa.
The world cup in Brazil has attracted an estimated 600,000 international travelers including thousands of alcohol ingesting, adrenaline pumping men who Brazilian prostitutes may convert into clientele and cold profit.
Prostitution is a legal job in Brazil and so in preparation for the large English population, free English classes were offered in the cup city of Belo Horizonte. At least a thousand séx-workers showed up to the classes in order to perfect their English vernacular.
Minas Gerais State Association of Prostitutes president, Cida Vieira, told Huffington Post reporters that, "English will be very important to communicate with clients during the Cup. They'll have to learn how to work out financial deals and also use a specialized vocabulary with sensual words and fetishes."
Vieira has specialized the course to mostly include erotic phrases as well as hand gestures that will prevent confusion on set acts and prices.
Although prostitution is legal in Brazil, the organization of a brothel is not. To get around this road-bump many Brazilian bars act as fronts for brothels that are set up in back of the store. Tucked away in back alleys, up twisting flights of stairs, the brothels of Brazil live on in secrecy.
Surprisingly enough more than half of the World Cup prostitutes were not prostitutes a month ago. The huge crowds of men have opened up lucrative business opportunities for the otherwise impoverished citizens of Brazil. The average monthly income for a citizen of Brazil is around $330 a month. While working the World Cup streets, women can easily make five times that amount.
Mel, 20, is one such woman who recently joined the ranks of the world's oldest profession. Mel told Daily Mirror reporters, "I became a prostitute three weeks ago. I know there will be a lot more custom for the World Cup. I use the money to support my family, pay the rent, the bills."
Whether prostitution is morally acceptable or not, the fact remains that Brazil is an impoverished nation with a slim middle class. Families and individuals must do what they can in order to survive.
**It was also reported that many girls ran into prostitution just because of the World Cup holding in Brazil. Then what will happen to such ladies after the world cup?**
