Rhode Island used to offer protection to sex workers, and for a few years, indoor prostitution was blooming there. The workers had protection against unstable clients, and they could call the police if they were in harm’s way. Unfortunately, that all changed in 2009 when indoor prostitution was criminalized. Now, those who are either self-employed or working as escorts because they simply want to need to be extra careful who they solicit, where, and how. They don’t have the police’s protection anymore. Finally, we do have to mention FOSTA too, or the Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act of 2017. By signing this act into law, President Trump declared war on human trafficking and websites that advertise sex work. However, though the act may help catch human traffickers, it also prevents free-willed sex workers form earning their income. Because of that, it doesn’t really matter how escort websites make money anymore, as they are being prosecuted regardless of who the escorts are. That has done more harm than good for the sex industry. In order not to miss a rent payment or have enough money to live off, those sex workers have probably had to find alternative jobs or, even worse, use the services of a potentially unsafe or abusive pimp or agency.
The question of Are escorts illegal in China? doesn’t leave much to the imagination, although the answer doesn’t really matter if you ask us. The Communist Party worked very hard to eliminate prostitution and criminalize it in mainland China. However, even today, China is seeping with prostitutes who don’t have another choice but to continue selling sex services. For some, it’s a matter of life or death, as they are unable to find any other work. Some have been in the business for quite long and don’t have plans to quit it anytime soon, often saying that the sex work is a lot better (and more profitable) than working in a factory, for instance. Still, because they have no protection and are doing it illegally, they’ve become sneakier over time. Thus, China is actually full of hair salons, beauty parlors, and karaoke bars that are just a front for various prostitution rings. And the law is much crueler to sex workers than those who use their services. If men get caught going to illegal brothels, they can simply pay a small fine and get off the hook. Sex workers, on the other hand, have it quite rough. In China, having a condom on you is enough for the police to arrest you and charge you with prostitution!Visit our Website and Social Media.
