That might seem extreme, but I find many missionaries are judgmental and rude.

The word, prostitution, is put around all the time but often has no real meaning especially outside the Western context. The online Cambridge Free Dictionary tells me that the word prostitution means "having sex for money." But the term "prostituting yourself" is taken to mean using your beliefs or abilities in a way that does not deserve respect, especially to make money.
If having sex for money is the correct meaning of the word, then all those marriages and other arrangements that involve money in any way that is conditional for sex amount to prostitution, including those situations where not paying due respect to the lady by buying her drinks and dinner beforehand. If the prostituting yourself means what it says in the dictionary, then most ways of making money is "prostituting yourself" as most ways of making money do not deserve respect. They are neutral in relation to respect.
Prostitution is just a meaningless word. Many cultures do not look on promiscuity as bad and do not disrespect getting paid in cash or kind for a sexual relationship any more than being paid to be a companion or cleaning someones house for money.
Some might want to distinguish between marriage where there is clearly a monetary motivation or engaging in ongoing sexual relationship where money does get passed over and the situation where money that is paid for a short-time sexual encounter. According to this view, a marriage or relationship involving money as a motivator will not be prostitution but the short-term encounters are. But then, the distinction is merely a matter of time and number of sexual partners (assuming that if the woman is engaging in short-term sexual encounters, such as a streetwalker, she will have multiple sexual partners). Time seems such an arbitrary distinction. If the chief difference between marriage motivated by money and prostitution is time, then they will be hard to distinguish. When does an arrangement with a hooker become a common-law marriage? After 2 days, one week, a month?
If number of partners is the issue, then it could be interpreted that in the money motivated marriage the payer wants exclusive rights and is prepared to pay for it. If that is what distinguishes money-motivated marriage from prostitution, then the so-called morally superior marriage is merely a form of sexual bonded labor where the person is denied their free sexual choice in exchange for money or other goodies.
The older man in your storywants to be able to buy the exclusive rights of the lady in question but I guess he has not made that clear or been able to put it into effect. It would appear that he already knows that he has not secured exclusivity as he knows that she has screwed around when he was not in country. So all he is paying for is sex or sexual access (really the same thing). There is no point in leaving a girl alone for long periods and expecting her to be faithful. In the girl's mind, it makes complete sense to have an ongoing companion while the breadwinner is away. In some respects it is better and safer than if she goes off and has (unprotected) sex with a many different men.
But I am guessing that the older man thinks he has a future with this girl, as in a 'move in and live happily ever after' future. The reality is that the girl does not like him and will simply milk him for as long as she can. Eventually, whether the other man knows about the older lover or not, he will take action, possibly even at the behest of the women, and beat up or frighten off the other guy.
Forget all the questions and moralizing about whether she is a prostitute or not, the best way to describe this girl to the older man is "not a keeper."

She is basically involved in a bad, but still a real common law marriage. The guy doesn't give her any money and he is also cheating on her (that seems to be mutual activity for those 2)
Interesting enough, she does not like Alex because his skin is too dark (no, she is not light skinned herself) and the reason she is sleeping with him: because she is afraid if she doesn't, Alex will stop giving her money for school and possibly money to open her own store.
And she still plans.obviously not to tell him anything about her common law husband.
So. Any comments? Besides pure deception, how much different is that from prostitution? Because she is not a street walker? AM I missing something?

i have found that these women, like anywhere else in the world, run the whole gamut from family-oriented obedient to psycho hustler and everything in between. same variety here in the us.
what i found with ghanaian girls, especially the native accra girls of akan heritage is that they are seriously messed up. they come from bukom / jamestown which is so overpopulated, social dynamics are insane. many of these girls are abused sexually in their **** years by uncles and so forth. they grow up with repressed anger which gets expressed in different ways. promiscuity, deceipt, anger control, super independence are some of the expressions. and it happens to a lesser degree around the rest of the country. this probably also explains crazy lagos girls too. but then you can also find an extremely faithful bukom girl too.
another factor which influences these girls behavior very strongly is family pressure. they all see a white man as economic security, which is fine. it is a woman's natural instinct to look for normal security. but the mother might think otherwise. she might think of it as a godsend to boost her social status. build her villa. buy a car. start a business. i have seen numerous girls get caught up and families get split up both sides. either the girl sends so much money back to help only to find everybody freeloading and getting greedier and she cuts ties. or it puts too much pressure on the girl and her white husband, whom she may actually even love, and they split up.
then there are other girls who are simply there to take advantage of every opportunity they can get her hands on. sometimes, if her hubby has the same ambitious mindset, it can be advantageous to both parties economically and socially. other times, if the hubby is just a paid worker with no business ambitions, pffftt.
then you also find the girls who are just happy to be taken care of and may even be faithful. others may slip up occasionally while some girls will go and fuck anything on two legs on the side while still 'faithfully' taking care of her main man. it also depends on what the man's expectations are in his relationship. i knew one old geezer who traveled a lot but had his mistress living in his apartment and didn't mind her having flings here and there. she took care of the house, fed him and fucked him. and he was happy.
i have found the same pattern in the francophone countries. togo and benin to be exact. good women, bad women and everything in between. as for nigerian girls, they don't act nearly as crazy in nigeria as they do in accra. maybe the ones that come to accra are those that want to get away from their evil family because there's no economic advantage to setting up base in accra. one nigerian girl told me she was raped by her uncle but her mom told her to shut up about it for shaming the family. she started hating them after that and lives in accra now.
it doesn't matter whether they're university girls, good family girls, rich, poor, market women, village girls, liberians, nigerians, francophone or whatnot. you cannot place general characterizations on them. each girl is different. and each segment has all sorts of girls with all sorts of families, with their own stories and characteristics. about the only generalization you can make is that, whether love is there or not, most do see white partners as an advantage.
