Marginalization and victimization of female sex workers of India

victimization journals

Although the acts regulating prostitution existed in India for ages and are getting modified over the years, there still exist certain social and cultural sanctities in the country. Socially, it stigmatizes only the women and marginalizes them by denying public space for them.

The social and cultural hegemony dictate terms on the women and her body and denies them the basic human rights in the guise of indulging in the shameful act. Male dominated society and hierarchical social structure is reinforcing this heinous system on a section of the women in the society. It is time to fight against this marginalization and victimization of women.
