An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

At least 10 million women – a number roughly equivalent to the population of Belgium – work in China’s sprawling yet illegal sex industry, according to an estimate by the author of a new novel that looks at the complex social issues involving prostitution and income gaps in China.

Zhang, who grew up in China but today holds an overseas passport, was inspired to write the book in part because her grandmother was a prostitute and grandfather a regular customer who bought the grandmother out of the business, kept her as a concubine, and later abandoned his first wife in favor of the second. The author learned about the grandparent’s history only when the grandmother was near death.

That number is about 2% of women population in China and assuming most of them are from the 18-35 age-group, it accounts for 4-5% of this age-group. It means at least one girl in every classroom will be a sex worker when she grows up.
