Abstract

This paper presents the results of research on covert prostitution carried out by some SPGMCs in the city of Surabaya. The focus of this research is the cause as the background and the hope as the foreground for SPGMC to enter the world of prostitution. Studies that seek to reveal the dualism of SPG's life in the past, in particular SPGMC, has not been done much in a philosophical sense. Therefore it is interesting to research what is the charm of the world of prostitution for them. By using the phenomenological approach and the qualitative research method, it can be revealed that there is the cause as the background and the hope as the foreground why SPGMCs enter the world of prostitution. There is a relevant phenomenon to the practice of covert prostitution among the SPGMCs, namely the shift in the sexual appetite of some young entrepreneurs or bosses towards “young leaves” which are intertwined with the meaning of loyalty in them to their families. The background that causes SPGMC to enter the world of prostitution are as follows: economic dependency, unwed pregnancy, lifestyle demands, divorce, and feeling lonely in the family; while the foreground that SPG hopes to enter the world of prostitution are as follows: wanting to get rich quick and wanting to be noticed by others. Keywords: SPGMC, cause, hope, sexual appetite, covert prostitution. DOI: 10.7176/PPAR/12-1-04 Publication date: January 31 st 2022

Summary

Introduction

1.1 Background of the Research Prostitution is a social phenomenon that is always present and adapts in every era and situation. The world of prostitution involves many parties. The practice of prostitution holds many mysteries regarding the dimensions of human life, regarding how prostitutes maintain the continuity of their practice, and the parties who secretly enjoy and take advantage of its existence (Mudjijono, 2005). Prostitution still exists because there is still demand and supply regarding the sexual business in society. On the one hand there are some people who need sexual services by buying them (enjoyers); on the other hand there are some people who need money by providing sexual services (prostitutes). There is usually a third party acting as an intermediary and/or managing the business, which is referred to as a pimp
