Thread: 'Anna' Sex Slave or Sex Worker? The Demand Fallacy - an easy read version.

  1. Default 'Anna' Sex Slave or Sex Worker? The Demand Fallacy - an easy read version.

    The Swedish model aims to reduce demand for prostitution by targeting the buyers of sex services.

    Does criminalising the purchase of sexual services work? Not according to Professor Charles Hill.

    And does law enforcement chase the wrong target?

    The model below shows the same outcome with zero or 100% coercion of sex workers.

    What an excellent article. Should be sent to every one of our politicians, whether they would take this on board is another question. Thank you.

    "In this case, it is the pimps who want to maintain a certain standard of living. They force sex workers into longer hours to maintain that standard. The situation for the coerced workers is far worse than it was before the change in the law. They are now forced into working longer hours to provide sex against their will. This is clearly not the intention of the Swedish model, but it is a highly probable consequence of criminalising demand."

    "Law enforcement, in other words, is going after the wrong target. If the concern is about pimps coercing women into forced labour, then law enforcement must target the coercers instead of focusing on soft targets that generate publicity but do not solve the human rights problem."

    Great article, one of the points that has been expressed by many, bring in this law & it will play into the hands of pimps, the trafficked escort is condemned to a deeper level of hell & abuse.
