Abstract

Women are not only faced with challenges regarding social construction but are also faced with natural challenges. The uncertain climate has in fact become one of the reasons for fertilizing the prostitution business in the northern coast of Java Island. Climate change is making poverty even more real. The drastic decline in marine products and the uncertainty of life during the pandemic provide a special impetus for women in making decisions as sex workers. A phenomenological approach is used to reveal the meaning behind women's decisions. The results of the study reveal that there are at least two things that are taken into consideration in making women's decisions to become sex workers, namely economic incapacity and powerlessness in social construction as women.
