The disintegration of small-scale peasant economy in Liaoning Province has resulted in the loss of economic resources for some families and the loss of family dependence for some women.The prosperity and development of industry and Commerce in Liaoning has not brought new employment opportunities to women.With the promulgation of the "border immigration" policy,a large number of young male labor force has poured into Liaoning,which provides a large number of labor force for this region and sufficient space for the development of the prostitution industry.At the end of the Qing Dynasty,the number of prostitutes in Liaoning increased rapidly,but their quality and service level did not improve greatly.After the southern prostitutes poured into Liaoning,they quickly occupied the top position of the prostitute industry and expanded the internal gap of the prostitute industry.Although the arrival of Southern prostitutes brought pressure to local prostitutes,it also promoted the development of local prostitutes.At the end of the Qing Dynasty,the number of prostitutes in Liaoning increased rapidly,but their quality and service level did not improve greatly.After the southern prostitutes poured into Liaoning,they quickly occupied the top position of the prostitute industry and expanded the internal gap of the prostitute industry.Although the arrival of Southern prostitutes brought pressure to local prostitutes,it also promoted the development of local prostitutes.There are two reasons why women are prostitutes: one is forced to be prostitutes,the other is willing to degenerate into prostitutes.After entering the brothel,prostitutes are bullied by the leaders and prostitutes,and they are deeply hurt physically and mentally.In addition,many prostitutes are suffering from sexually transmitted diseases due to frequent sexual life,and their physical endurance has reached the limit.In order to get rid of the oppression of brothels,prostitutes have to seek the help of prostitutes and the government.With the help of the government and prostitutes,only a small number of prostitutes leave the country.Most of them are not able to get out of trouble,and they can only survive and die in brothels.The operation of prostitution industry is vulnerable to the interference of external environment.At the end of the Qing Dynasty,the society was in turmoil,and the prostitute industry was affected by the environment.After the legalization of the prostitution industry,the government strengthened the planning and management of the industry,and improved the public security.However,some government employees and police soldiers harass prostitutes from time to time,which has a great impact on the operation of brothels.The number of prostitutes and brothels increased rapidly in a short period of time,causing great social problems.The vicious incidents such as fighting and fighting caused by prostitutes have a bad impact on people’s life and police security.Prostitutes and brothels sell cigarettes to prostitutes and organize gambling,which destroy men’s bodies,corrupt social atmosphere and waste social wealth.The existence of prostitute industry in Liaoning society,such as cancer is difficult to cure.
