Raymond demonstrates that prostitution isn't intercourse yet sexual exploitation, and that legalizing and decriminalizing the method of prostitution—as against the prostituted women—promotes intercourse trafficking, expands the intercourse undefined, and invitations prepared crime. particularly, Raymond exposes how legalized prostitution within the Netherlands, Germany, Australia, and Nevada worsens crime and endangers ladies. against this, she finds, whilst governments paintings to avoid the call for for prostitution by way of prosecuting pimps, brothels, and prostitution users—as in Norway, Sweden, and Iceland—trafficking doesn't raise, girls are larger secure, and less males purchase intercourse. Raymond expands the limits of scholarship in women’s stories, making this ebook quintessential to human rights advocates round the world.
