California Democrats are taking heat for "water[ing] down" a "child sex trafficking bill." But—as anyone whose brain isn't completely broken by politics might imagine—this isn't a case of lawmakers trying to make life easy for people who abuse and exploit children. They're just trying to insert a smidge of sanity into the bill's punishment schemes. The scorn with which this has been met underscores how hard it is for legislators to push back against policies that are purportedly about protecting children.

In Belgien werden Prostituierte bald die gleichen sozialen Rechte genießen wie andere Arbeitnehmer. Die neuen Regeln erlauben es ihnen, Arbeitsverträge mit lizenzierten Arbeitgebern abzuschließen. Es ist ein beispielloser Versuch, den Sektor zu regulieren, aber nicht jeder ist davon überzeugt, wie Euronews Witness berichtet. Bislang bewegten sich Hostessen-Bars und erotische Massagesalons in Belgien in einer rechtlichen Grauzone: SexarbeiterInnen wurden bar bezahlt oder mit KellnerInnenverträgen beschäftigt. Das öffnete dem Missbrauch Tür und Tor, so die Befürworter des Gesetzes. "Es ist ein g...

In Belgium prostitutes will soon have access to the same social rights as other employees, thanks to a law adopted in May 2024. The new rules allow them to sign job contracts with approved employers. It's an unprecedented effort to regulate the sector, but not everyone is convinced, as Euronews Witness reports.

It was considered an open door to abuse, according to supporters of the law. "It feels good to know what is legally allo...

Medellín (Colombia) (AFP) - At night, sex workers take up their positions in the Colombian city of Medellin, where a tourism boom has led to a rise in prostitution that is dragging in underage girls. Once synonymous with lawlessness, the birthplace of Pablo Escobar has become a trendy hotspot for tourists and digital nomads drawn to its mountainous landscapes and vibrant nightlife. However, a seedy and dangerous underbelly remains, with child prostitutes on offer and a string of tourists drugged and murdered by their matches on dating apps. "Women drive tourism here in Medellin because men com...
