@Alabama Blaze: While I've never paid for sex in the UK, from what I see online it's pretty ugly there as well. Bareback sex seems almost commonplace. There are "bug chasers" who, for reasons that baffle me, seem to want to get get infected and get sick. I can tell you that human trafficking & pimping are rampant in the UK & especially in mainland Europe. The proximity to developing nations & Africa make it common. Europe has a dark ugly side & even the legal sex trade in the Netherlands isn't as great as it's pundits would make it out to be. As for firing a woman for dating her clients, that strikes me as heavy handed. Who are they to interfere in her social life? Is she "their property" or her own. The minute a woman is not her own property in this industry there is a major problem.
@SummerBreeze. It's a fallacy to imagine things are improving in the sex trade. Contrary to the opinions some folks espouse on this forum there is a major & growing issue with human trafficking, pimping and intimidation of women in this world. I can find humans for sale on the dark net before you can finish your morning coffee. The dark net, bitcoin, etc is an enabler to the dark side of the sex trade & human trafficking. Bill C-36 only assisted in the marginalization of sex workers, further pushing them into the shadows. And, I believe it played a major part in the whole agenda of making "all sex workers victims"...implying that all women in the sex trade are drugged and pimped. It was a case of simplify the problem & pigeonhole the entire trade. That only throws gasoline on the whole "abolish it all" fire to give police a heavier hand. Thankfully, in Canada, LE is still relatively sane and thinking..for now anyway. Perhaps it is just me, but I can't help but notice this growing trend of misogyny around the world.
