Yet, they all tell me it is a job and they have bills to pay. From the way these women carry themselves and the lives they lead, you would never guess that they are barmaids. I have no right to pass moral judgment on them for the work that they have chosen for themselves; it isn’t necessary nor would they appreciate my condemnation.
