According to BBC, prostitution is a real fact of Pakistan but due to Islamic country, many refuse to accept this reality. Even after much Islamization, this culture has only grown.
According to BBC report, there are atleast 100000 female sex workers in Karachi only so it was necessary to arrange such an event to prevent AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
It was very first event of this kind. Women feared to attend it because they could be identified by theirs family members if appeared on media. They were given 1000 rupees per day to attend it. They attended on condition that no media men be allowed to capture photos or footages. Even then about 100 females attended the workshop. After attending it, many women said that they were unaware of these safety precautions.
Many social and religious parties protested against it saying that in Islamic country such events should not be encouraged.
If we think openly, we may conclude that this is good initiative and such programmes should be arranged regularly. There aim is not to create more sex workers or to teach more sex techniques but their aim is to prevent the diseases and promote health. Its a bitter reality that sex workers and prostitution is increasing in pakistan. Such brothels are secret and many a times in private apartments where no one can doubt. Moreover, even if its done openly, it is possible with the little help by police by a fair deal with them.
Sex is a natural desire for all the animals and humans too. It is impossible to control sex working, so it becomes necessary to train workers to prevent many fatal diseases.
