The book The Lost Sisterhood, talked about one of the oldest “professions” as many people in our society refer to, prostitution. However, Ruth Rosen the author of this book is not trying to show us a study, but instead examination of the great impact that gender, and class had on the lives of women and men who lived in prostitution during the early decades. In the book Mrs. Rosen argues that both sides, prostitutes and reformers were key actors in the history, who understood that they made choices, even when the choices were severely restricted by society. Rosen looks to answer why certain women chose prostitution over other labors, as well as why reformers felt they had such a stake in the future of prostitution.
