We test for the necessity of formal enforcement to overcome the problems of asymmetric information by estimating the value of information in an illegal market with a particularly rich information structure: the online market for male sex work.

  • Very Inconvenient Truths: Sex Buyers, Sexual Coercion, and Prostitution-Harm-Denial by Melissa Farley
    Logos - Winter 2016: Vol 15, no. 1 (http://logosjournal.com/2016/farley-2/) Very inconvenient truths: sex buyers, sexual coercion, and prostitution-harm-denial by Melissa Farley Globalisation has further tilted the imbalance of power between the male punter with his wallet and the woman who rents her vagina for a fee. In France, 85 per cent of prostitutes are immigrants, many without papers, vulnerable to exploitation. In Germany, with its legal super-brothels, it is about two thirds. If demand is not tackled, more will come. Is that something any Western nation should be proud of: an underclass of poor women from Thai villages and Ukrainian towns, imported to service First World penises? – Janice Turner, 2014. [1] Some pimps, some sex buyers and some governments have made the decision that it is reasonable to expect certain women to tolerate sexual exploitation and sexual assault in order to survive. Those women most often are poor and most often are ethnically or racially marginalised. The men who buy them or rape them have greater social power and more resources than the women. For example, a Canadian prostitution tourist commented about women in Thai prostitution, “These girls gotta eat, don’t they? I’m putting bread on their plate. I’m making a contribution. They’d starve to death unless they whored.” [2] This self-congratulatory Darwinism avoids the question: do women have the right to live without the sexual harassment or sexual exploitation of prostitution – or is that right reserved only for those who have sex, race or class privilege? “You get what you pay for without the ‘no,’” a sex buyer explained.[3] Non-prostituting women have the right to say “no.” We have legal protection from sexual harassment and sexual exploitation.

Brewer, Ph.D., Interdisciplinary Scientific Research, Principal Investigator Executive summary Prostitution is often associated with illegal drug markets, crime, violence, other negative impacts on neighborhoods, and sexually transmitted disease. Despite the problems of public safety, order, and health linked to prostitution, there is remarkably little good empirical information on key facets of the problem, especially regarding male clients of prostitute women. We carried out a multi-stranded project to address some of these gaps in knowledge. The goals of this project were to: 1) assess the specific deterrent effect of arrest for patronizing a prostitute; 2) estimate the prevalence of clients overall and the subset of clients who are violent toward prostitutes; 3) compare clients with the general population of men in terms of demographics and geography; and 4) compare clients who are violent toward prostitute women with clients overall in terms of demographics, geography, and criminal history.

  • “Brothels Without Walls”: the Escort Sector As a Problem for the Legalization of Prostitution
    Social Politics 2010 Volume 00 Number 00 SHEILA JEFFREYS “Brothels without Walls”: the Downloaded from Escort Sector as a Problem for the Legalization of Prostitution http://sp.oxfordjournals.org at University of Melbourne on April 18, 2010 Abstract This article examines a developing trend in the prostitution indus- try in the western world, the boom in escort prostitution. Escort prostitution, operating through mobile phones and the Internet, is supplanting the brothel as the major form in which prostituted women are delivered to male buyers. Policy-makers who promote the legalization of the prostitution industry have argued that this policy will make prostituted women and girls safer and combat organized crime. These assumptions are based upon the idea that prostitution will take place in brothels which can institute health and safety codes, and enable easy identification of the illegal brothel industry which can be closed down. Escort prostitution provides particular challenges to the regulation of prostitution because there is no way in which it can be controlled or made “safe.” Alongside the other harms associated with prostitution which are exacerbated in legalized regimes, this development pro- vides a significant reason why the policy of legalization is doomed to fail in achieving its objectives. The problems associated with the escort boom will be examined in relation to the state of Queensland in Australia, and the Netherlands, jurisdictions in which the prostitution industry has been legalized.
