Why are more and more rural elderly people infected with AIDS?

On May 6, 2020, the Chuanshan Police Station of the Liujiang Public Security Bureau of Guangxi received reports from the masses and arrested 14 pornography-related offenders in a wild forest. Among them, 12 were men and only 2 were women who were prostitutes. (The prostitute was later arrested).

As soon as the news came out, many netizens were shocked. It is reported that these clients are generally around 50 years old, and the two women who are prostitutes are both over 60 years old. What is even more surprising is that the 14 rural elderly people arrested were stooped and plainly dressed. Their pairs of Jiefang shoes and dark green undershirts were particularly conspicuous. Without this news, who could imagine them as pornographic personnel? Isn’t that the out-and-out simple farmer in our impression?

Seeing this news, netizens were also uncharacteristically:

"The elderly also have needs, so the control is too lenient." "It looks so sad, because they can't marry. Let’s go to my wife.” “I think education and training should be the main thing. The elderly also have their own needs and cannot be killed with one blow.”

In recent years, with the development of society, rural areas have become “empty.” The number of "empty nesters" is increasing year by year. The children of these empty-nesters work outside all year round. In addition to financial constraints, the elderly suffer from emptiness in their spiritual lives. "A lock when you go out, a light when you return home." Loneliness not only makes life eclipse, but also makes the soul suffer. What do the elderly think about prostitution and prostitution among the elderly? Let’s take a look at what these three aunts who are over 60 years old have to say:

Aunt He

My wife passed away 20 years ago, and I raised two children single-handedly. They got married and started a business, and they also separated from me. Although they would give me some money and food every New Year and festival, they were still far apart from my children and grandchildren and could not talk to me. It's actually quite uncomfortable to turn off the lights at night and see yourself alone in your room with no wife to talk to. At my age, I never thought about finding another one. People in the city are interested in that kind of thing, but not in rural areas. So even if there is a physiological need, I can only endure it secretly, for fear of being laughed at. We also want to have our own private life, but people in rural areas talk a lot, so we can only do it secretly.

Uncle Zhang

My wife and I have not dealt with each other since we were young. If it were not for my daughter, we would have divorced long ago. But now that he has passed away, I want to spend the rest of my life as I want to live a good life by myself. I have some savings, so I never need my daughter’s subsidies in life. Sometimes I have to help them, so my daughter never interferes in my private life. Because I have too many boyfriends, I accidentally end up I contracted AIDS because of my weak consciousness. I used to think that the disease could be cured, but now I don’t dare to tell my daughter, for fear of being disliked, so I can only treat it quietly.

Aunt Li

I only have one child, and my sons have been indifferent to me for a thousand times, and it has been a waste of time. What can I do as an old man? There is no land left for farming now. I started doing this just to make some money. Anyway, in my hometown in the countryside, no one can care about me, and I don’t interfere with anyone’s business.

@与青说事believes:

In recent years, the number of rural elderly people infected with AIDS has been increasing due to prostitution, and the spread of AIDS has centered on towns and spread to surrounding rural areas. The trend has affected the left-behind elderly in rural areas and the number of infected people over 70 years old has been increasing. This is a severe social reality.

The development of society has led to more and more "empty nesters". Most of the elderly lack the company of their children, resulting in loneliness. Young people still have unlimited time to have fun, while the elderly can only spend time on their own. Enjoying your own pain and having nothing to do, how can you not have fun yourself?

As people reach old age, they have more helplessness, and there are more and more cases of elderly people engaging in prostitution. To solve this social problem, we as a society need to pay attention to the physical and mental health of the elderly. Only in this way, without the feeling of being forgotten by society, will they be able to live a happy life, enrich their lives in their later years, and not be forced into prostitution. The situation of prostitution.

I hope that every elderly person can have a wonderful life in their later years, and I also hope that each of us can give them more care!
