Glossing it over

AS a woman and a psychotherapist living and practising in Cork city, I wish to respond to your feature on prostitution (Irish Examiner, April 20).

I applaud the fact that you quoted Gerardine Rowley who clearly understands the true and abusive nature of the ‘business’ here in Ireland.

However, I question the appropriateness of the photo used. While the article referred to the dangers of glamourising prostitution, you appear to be doing just that with a well-shot portrayal of a good-looking, gym-attending, tanned young man with crisp, clean clothes reclining on a classy-looking bed.
