London: Several women students in Cambridge University are working as vice girls, strippers and escorts to pay for their education, says a report in the university’s newspaper.
At least one escort agency has 450 students and alumni on its books, says a report in Varsity. Students are selling their bodies to pay the £3,070 annual university fees. The newspaper claimed it spoke to a student who spent her first year working as a 50-pounds-an-hour call girl.
The students have been forced to join the flesh trade to pay the £3,070 annual university fees, says the newspaper. A final year undergraduate, who claimed to have had sex with between 40 and 50 men in her first year, earned around £1,000 a week. The 21-year-old student and former prostitute said: "I did have a day job but it wasn't paying enough. I met other students who did it too.
"Once you've done it, it is tempting. If you need quick, easy money, it's there. The undergraduate, who has since given up the practice, said that she would get calls out to other students "maybe once or twice a fortnight."
She said: "I slept with clients on 40-50 occasions over a period of two months. There are several agencies in Cambridge. Curiosity made me do it. Clients were charged £120 per hour; you got £50, the agency got £50 and your driver got £20.
Another undergraduate did a strip act, earning up to £100 per dance. "It can be so degrading but, when I'm home, I'm not going to stack shelves at Morrison's for £5.50 an hour when I could do this. There are the moments I really don't want to do it, but it is certainly character building. My worst fear is dancing up there in front of someone I know, but everyone has to do it," she told.
