This is heartbreaking. Something that I would
never consider asking
anyone to do.
Desperate Syrian women turn to prostitution
In amongst the continued battle for the country, the war in Syria continues to take its toll on citizens of the country

As the Syrian death toll mounts, as millions continue to be displaced, a new tragedy has emerged as initially reported by the Associated Press (AP).
In Jordanian refugee camps, Syrian women are resorting to selling their bodies for sex to enable them to pay for basic requirements such as food and money to send back to relatives who have yet been unable to flee Syria.
"Come in, you'll have a good time," suggests Nada, 19, who escaped from the southern border town of Daraa into Jordan several months ago. Her father sits outside watching silently. Nada prices her body at $7, negotiable. She says she averages around $70 a day.
Syrian men who fled jobs in their native country are reportedly offering their wives for sex. "You can have her all day for $70," promises a former barber from Idlib. He says he never imagined he would be selling his own wife, but he needs to send money back to his parents and in-laws in Syria, about $200 a month.

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.
