Fascinating how in the modern west all efforts are taken to commoditize the human body in every way imaginable, and even overwrite the history of efforts to treat the human body with respect. The false equivalency stating that a public space for women must necessarily be a place that allows prostitution is horrific.

I don't think the author claimed that. I think they claimed the reverse, this area for prostitution was a public space for women.

At least, that's how I understood it.
