The client refers to Howard, the financial master of his sister, and the prostitute refers to his sister.
Howard gave the prostitute (who is also the mother of the two sisters) a purse to support his younger sister. The younger sister expressed her unwillingness, and Howard was stabbed when he tried. As a mother, the prostitute protects her daughter and kills Howard to silence her.
Some viewers with extremely positive views are deeply saddened by Howard's death, because he has raped his sister once and his sister once, and he has no sm or murder. For the sake of his sister, he can lose his family's wealth, although the family wealth is his wife's dowry. Simply a conscience. In addition, he gave the prostitute money. How can a young lady be raped in a brothel, it is too pitiful to be stabbed. He loves his sister so much, and he raped her and took care of her because he loves her too much. Such an infatuated man is really rare, and her sister doesn't know how to cherish it.
At the same time, they were extremely harsh on their sister. She thinks that her sister is obviously a prostitute but doesn't know how to praise her, has no spirit of service, and doesn't do anything after receiving money. She is a hypocritical white lotus spoiled by her mother. Other prostitutes can bear it, why can't she bear it, she is not nobler than other prostitutes. At that time, women had no status, and when they were prostitutes, they should have the appearance of being prostitutes.
When I saw this view, I was simply amazed. China deserves to be a big country in human rights! Everyone has a prostitute mentality!
Before talking about my sister, let’s make an analogy: a black man was born in a plantation before the Civil War, and the slave master exploded his chrysanthemum. When he resisted, he accidentally killed the slave owner. Then everyone blamed the black people: you are a slave, you should have the appearance of a slave, the slave will blow your chrysanthemum, you should not be ignorant of praise. Other slaves can obey, why can't you? You are no nobler than other slaves. Besides, black people in that era had no status. If it wasn't for the slave owners to provide food and shelter, you wouldn't die violently on the street. You couldn't rely on the slave owners to support them and not listen to the slave owners! No slavery at all!
Can any black man be born willing to be a slave? What woman was born to want to be a prostitute?
Because unfortunately we were born in such an unjust era and society, so we have to live in secret, endure humiliation, kneel and lick the powerful? Otherwise, it is hypocritical seduction? ? ?
The younger sister did volunteer to be a prostitute, but did she become a prostitute because she was a good career that everyone envied? Her birth and family made it difficult for her to have any other way out. Because she chose to become a prostitute, she can be completely immune to rape, sm, and all kinds of play, can she accept it all? I'm not kidding: she's still a kid! Seeing an underage girl from the bottom of the society who became a prostitute, raped and then accidentally wounded someone and faced hanging. Instead of showing sympathy, some of the audience masters ridiculed the girl for being uncooperative, unprofessional and immature, regardless of the overall situation, ruthless, poor psychological endurance, and troublemakers. And Howard, as a client of whores, is in their eyes a "child who doesn't grow up", with a cuteness in his naiveness, and being stabbed by his sister is simply unlucky and pitiful. In the eyes of some people, men are always young children.
Whether in or out of the play, the real children/weak people are brought down, and the powerful are often forgiven and pampered. It seems that it is really not much better now than London in the 18th century! Scared the baby to death!
No matter in any era and society, rather than arguing whether prostitutes have human rights and status, and whether they can resist rape, the real point is not that prostitutes are just a social identity, prostitutes are first of all individuals, just as slaves are human beings, when they maintain their dignity and When it comes to personality, it should be understood and supported. Of course clients and slave owners may not think so.
Howard died, his wife became the biggest winner. It is more comfortable to be a rich widow than to have a prodigal man.
