I am reminded of our former housemaid who is separated from her husband with 3 children who are all living with her parents. Now this girl came to Manila to work but not for the money but for the independence. She has many textmates and Facebook friends and she admitted that she was dating some of them during her day off from her work with us. In one casual chat, she told me that she had sex with 2 of those online boyfriends – one is a carpenter and another is a jobless man. She said she is doing that for sheer fun. I didn’t know how to react so I just smiled at her. What’s on my mind is that she’s gone too far anyway, having kids already so maybe she can enjoy her life. That’s much better than being a prostitute.
