    Of course it's prostitution

    Of course this is straight-out prostitution, let's drop the crap about a distant cousin. But who cares?

    What would have been interesting about this article would be if this woman embraced the word "prostitute" and tried to throw off the stigma associated with it. If she's content with selling her body so she can wear designer shoes to college, she's not alone. People kill each other to get a good deal on a tv at Wal Mart in this country. Are we really surprised about this woman?
