Selling Ourselves



Street Corner Vendors

They stand on the corners in groups, Hispanic men who are offer themselves for any kind of work they can find.  They begin each day there and hope that somebody will stop and hire them for even a few hours for a few bucks to put food on their tables for their families. The end of the day comes and they are still standing there--maybe something will come up at the last minute.  Or just maybe they are too proud to come home and admit defeat.  Tell me, what is the difference between these men who look for work and the women who stand on the other corner to prostitute their bodies?  Ah!  Of course, the women succeed and earn the money that the men don't.
