On average, countries with legalized prostitution report a greater incidence of human trafficking inflows. expansion of the market, outweighs the substitution effect, where legal sex workers are favored over illegal workers.


The scale effect of legalizing prostitution, i.e. Countries with legalized prostitution are associated with higher human trafficking inflows than countries where prostitution is prohibited.And do not forget that prostitution being illegal correlates with significantly higher rates of rape. The "average age entering the sex trade" becomes 13, when in actual reality it is more like 22. And suddenly there are incredible masses of underage prostitutes, when in actual reality they are very rare. Suddenly, everybody selling sex is "trafficked", when that is very far from the truth indeed. With the thoroughly insane idea of making prostitution illegal in the US, the prohibitionists get to design the narrative, and they are shamelessly lying to promote their evil agenda. Of course that only works if said customer does not need to fear prosecution. In countries were prostitution is legal or decriminalized, it is extremely rare to find anybody forced into prostitution, and it is usually one of the first few customers (often the very first one) that calls the police and gets the victim freed. They just look at their options and decide that it is this one they like best. Or at least not more forced than anybody that has to work for a living. It is also patently false to think that most women in prostitution are forced into it. It was done so flippantly."Īnd in any sane country, that has happened a long time ago. "They made a map using their ride-share data, like it was a funny thing they could do with their data. The director of research for a national anti-trafficking group cites the time Uber analyzed ride-sharing data and reported a correlation between high-crime neighborhoods and frequent Uber trips - including people paying for prostitutes. Some of these men spent $30,000 to $50,000 a year, according to authorities." A lawyer for some of the men argues that Seattle's tech giants aren't conducting any training to increase employees' compassion for trafficked women in brothels. That boom correlates neatly with the boom of the tech sector there. A study commissioned by the Department of Justice found that Seattle has the fastest-growing sex industry in the United States, more than doubling in size between 20. "They were on their work accounts because Seattle pimps routinely asked first-time sex-buyers to prove they were not cops by sending an employee email or badge," reports Newsweek, criticizing "the widespread and often nonchalant attitude toward buying sex from trafficked women, a process made shockingly more efficient by internet technology. Newsweek's National Politics Correspondent reports on "a horny nest of prostitution 'hobbyists' at tech giants Microsoft, Amazon and other firms in Seattle," citing "hundreds" of emails "fired off by employees at major tech companies hoping to hook up with trafficked Asian women" between 20, "67 sent from Microsoft, 63 sent from Amazon email accounts and dozens more sent from some of Seattle's premier tech companies and others based elsewhere but with offices in Seattle, including T-Mobile and Oracle, as well as many local, smaller tech firms." Many of the emails came from a sting operation against online prostitution review boards, and were obtained through a public records request to the King County Prosecutor's Office.
