Please note that I did say "I admit rape is worse that prostitution". What I was trying to equate were two illegal, sexually-oriented pasts. Perhaps I should have said "male prostitute", although most women's impression of that involves Richard Gere and they might not think of it as being that bad. That's why I didn't use it. The thing is, I believe most men probably view a former prostitute with the same unease that most women view former rapists - meaning, most men would find the thought of having sex with them as displeasurable as the later for women. That was the *feeling* I was trying to capture. I was not trying to equate the two in terms of which is more dangerous to society, etc.
Bringing this back to my original post: The only point I am trying to make is that MOST people, when it comes to selecting a spouse, would not accept a past that involved prostitution.
