Rather than discuss what historian Shani D'Cruze explains as a "Victorian preoccupation with the symbolic role of the prostitute in society as the personification of disorderly female sexuality and the cultural counterbalance with the chaste middle-class wife," this work argues that prostitutes signify an exaggerated example of the inferior social position of all women in Victorian society.1 Indeed, prostitutes draw public attention to what historian Mary Lyndon Shanley, characterizes as "the economic and political, as well as the social and sexual, domination of women by men."2 Between 1850 and 1914, prostitution as an industry highlighted and depended on a population of women already made vulnerable by gender-biased legal, criminal, social, and domestic frameworks during this period and the men who dominated society. The articles published in the Times provide a stimulating lens through which to view how prostitution highlighted the gender inequality prevalent in the legal, criminal, social and domestic frameworks.
