The politicians thought, that it wasn\u00b4t prostitution itself that was the problem, but the discrimination of the women by the society and the lack of rights they had. Considering the problem from this perspective, they wanted to strengthen the women as best as possible. (They said): Prostitution should not be seen any more as something \u201cagainst the good morals\u201c, but as a job. For now on, the women were considered as workers, \u201csex workers.\u201d And if they are workers, they should have the same rights as any other worker that run a business or is employed somewhere, like having a social security or if their rights are not respected, they should have the right to enforce a claim by legal action. The state didn\u00b4t want to put any regulations concerning the sex practices. They said that nobody can say how people should have sex. As they run a business, they are also allowed to make publicity for it. So the new law cancelled the restriction of promoting prostitution.<\/p>\n<p>Fifteen years after passing the law, the results are the following:<\/p>\n<p><strong>We are observing an industrialization of prostitution:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The total revenue is 14.6 billion Euros with 3500 registered brothels.<a href=\"#_edn2\" name=\"_ednref2\">[2]<\/a> This are the official numbers.

Prostitution affects everybody, not only women in prostitution.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of the law, which is reportedly protecting and supporting women in prostitution, has failed completely \u2014 of these 400,000 women, only 44 are registered as sole proprietorship businesses.<a href=\"#_edn6\" name=\"_ednref6\">[6]<\/a> More than half of these women work illegally, meaning they don\u2019t have any social insurance and don\u2019t have access to medical services in Germany. (1) So, even if they have the flu, they don\u2019t have the possibility of visiting a doctor. There is a huge problem with pregnant women who can not pay for the abortion or birth their child in hospital. Very often, they abandon it.<a href=\"#_edn7\" name=\"_ednref7\">[7]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The police inspectors say themselves that they feel helpless. Manfred Paulus, a criminal inspector who worked for years in this field says that Germany with this law became an Eldorado for traffickers, pimps and brothel owners.<a href=\"#_edn8\" name=\"_ednref8\">[8]<\/a> The women who come from abroad and work in the red light district don\u00b4t get to know the Germany that the Germans know and appreciate. No, they are prisoners of a parallel society that is highly criminal.<a href=\"#_edn9\" name=\"_ednref9\">[9]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Those women live under constant fear: the fear of violent sex buyers, fear of not earning enough to pay the daily fixed costs, fear of getting sick, fear of getting pregnant, fear of the police, fear of the pimps, fear of the brothel owners, fear of the competition\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The law from 2002 didn\u00b4t help for preventing trafficking at all: in 2000, they were 151 persons condemned (does this mean convicted in court?) for trafficking, in 2011 only 32. The police recorded 636 cases of trafficked women in 2011, 3 times less than 10 years before. 13 of them were younger than 14 years old, 77 were under 18.<a href=\"#_edn10\" name=\"_ednref10\">[10]<\/a> The police complain that they have just little power to intervene, because without serious proof, they can not enter the brothels. Also, the legal proceedings depend on the women\u00b4s statement. Very often they are too afraid to give testimony and the procedures get stopped.<a href=\"#_edn11\" name=\"_ednref11\">[11]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The law that forbids pimping was easy to bypass, they simply became hoteliers renting rooms to the sex workers.<\/p>\n<p>It is estimated that 1.2 million men buy sex every day. 18% are regular consumer, 80% have been in a brothel.<a href=\"#_edn12\" name=\"_ednref12\">[12]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You see growing perversion among sex buyers. Practices are becoming more dangerous with an increase in violence against women and a lack of protection for them. There have been research done that examines violence in prostitution:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Zumbek\u2019s 2001 study in Germany found out that 70% have been physically assaulted.<a href=\"#_edn13\" name=\"_ednref13\">[13]<\/a><\/li>\n<li>A study by the German Ministry of Family in 2004 stated that: 82% have mentioned sustaining psychological violence, 92% have been sexually assaulted.<a href=\"#_edn14\" name=\"_ednref14\">[14]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Just taking into account these numbers, it is difficult to say that it\u2019s a job like any other. And this research dates back to more than 10 years ago \u2014 things have become much worse in Germany.<\/p>\n<p>This is what the dominatrix Ellen Templin had already observed in 2007: \u201cSince the reform you can see that not only have the advertisements become uninhibited, the buyers of sex have become more brutal. That\u2019s from one day to the next. Nowadays, if you say, \u201cNo, I don\u2019t do that,\u201d You often get the response, \u201cCome on; don\u2019t be so difficult, it\u2019s your job\u201d. Before it was forbidden to demand unprotected sex. Today, buyers ask on the telephone if they can piss on your face, wanting to do it without protection, wanting to do it anally or orally. These days, it\u2019s an everyday occurrence. Before, buyers still had a guilty conscience. That doesn\u2019t exist anymore today, they want more and more.\u201d<a href=\"#_edn15\" name=\"_ednref15\">[15]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>There is a \u201cmenu\u201d circulating on the Internet, where buyers can choose what they want from a long \u00e0 la carte list.<a href=\"#_edn16\" name=\"_ednref16\">[16]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I will just give you a couple of examples:<\/p>\n<pre>AF = Algierfranz\u00f6sisch (Zungenanal) \u2013\u00a0<strong>Tongue anal<\/strong>\r\nAFF = Analer Faustfick (die ganze Hand im Hintereingang)\u00a0<strong>\u2013 Anal Fist Fucking<\/strong>\r\nAO = alles ohne Gummi \u2013\u00a0<strong>everything without rubber<\/strong>\r\nBraun-wei\u00df = Spiele mit Schei\u00dfe und Sperma \u2013\u00a0<strong>play with shit and sperma<\/strong>\r\nDP = Doppelpack (Sex mit zwei Frauen) oder: double Penetration (zwei M\u00e4nner in einer Frau)\r\n \u2013\u00a0<strong>Sex with 2 women or double penetration (2 men in one woman)<\/strong>\r\nEL = Eierlecken \u2013\u00a0<strong>licking the balls<\/strong>\r\nFFT = Faustfick total \u2013\u00a0<strong>Fist Fuck totally<\/strong>\r\nFP = Franz\u00f6sisch pur (Blasen ohne Gummi und ohne Aufnahme) \u2013\u00a0<strong>blowjob without rubber<\/strong>\r\nFT = Franz\u00f6sisch total doppeldeutig: Blasen ohne Gummi mit Spermaschlucken und seltener: \r\nBlasen ohne Gummi bis zum Finale \u2013<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>Blowjob without condom and with swallowing the sperma.<\/strong>\r\nGB = Gesichtsbesamung (manchmal auch Gangbang, also Gruppensex, aber mit deutlichem \r\nM\u00e4nner\u00fcberschuss)\u00a0<strong>Ejaculating in the face.<\/strong>\r\nGS = Gruppensex \u2013\u00a0<strong>Group Sex.<\/strong>\r\nKvp = Kaviar Passiv (Frau l\u00e4sst sich anschei\u00dfen) \u2013\u00a0<strong>Man shits on woman<\/strong>\r\nSW = Sandwich, eine Frau zwischen zwei M\u00e4nnern \u2013\u00a0<strong>one woman between 2 men<\/strong>\r\ntbl, = tabulos, ALLES ist erlaubt \u2013\u00a0<strong>without taboo, everything is allowed.<\/strong>\r\nZA = Zungenanal (am \/ im Hintereingang lecken) \u2013\u00a0<strong>lick the anus.<\/strong><\/pre>\n<p>There are sites on the internet where buyers share their experiences: here is what you can read there: \u201cI spread her butt cheeks and slowly thrust my cock inside her, which was accompanied by a quiet moan.

The health condition of those women is catastrophic. With 30 years they are very often pre-aged. All women have persistent abdominal pains. Gastritis and frequent infections, also due to the unhealthy living conditions. And of course, all kinds of sexually transmissible diseases. The psychological traumatisation can just be stood with alcohol and pharmaceutical drugs. He reports about a growing demand for pregnant women in prostitution. Those women have to serve 15 to 40 men a day continuously until they give birth. Very often, they abandon their child and go to work as soon as possible. Sometimes 3 days after birthing of the child. Those practices are totally irresponsible for the health of the mother and her child. It can leave irreversible damages to the unborn child. And every mother knows that it takes time after giving birth to a child before sexual intercourse is possible again without pain.<a href=\"#_edn18\" name=\"_ednref18\">[18]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Under these conditions, no German woman sees herself as capable of doing this \u201cwork.\u201d The makeup of women in prostitution has changed. With the opening of Europe to the east, women come from the poorest regions of Europe: Romania, Bulgaria \u2014 and it\u2019s often minorities like the Roma who live in extreme poverty. Today around 95% come from other countries. It has become a prostitution of poverty.<a href=\"#_edn19\" name=\"_ednref19\">[19]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sabine Constabel, a social worker who has worked in Stuttgart with prostituted women for more than 20 years, says the following: \u201c30% of these women are young, under 21-years old. Often they are sacrificed by their own families to support them financially. The majority doesn\u2019t speak German, and some among them are illiterate. And frequently, they haven\u2019t had sexual relations before. These young women come to Germany and are subjected to the perverse desires of these buyers. They aren\u2019t capable of saying \u201cno\u201d, of defending themselves. They are completely overwhelmed by the situation and completely traumatized by it. Many of them ask for psychotropic drugs immediately after their first experience. They say, \u2018otherwise, you couldn\u2019t survive it.\u2019 Some women are only there a few days and say, \u2018I\u2019m dead here, I can\u2019t laugh anymore.\u2019 Others endure it for years and say, \u2018I have children at home, I have to support them.\u2019 These women are very traumatized, they develop depression, nightmares and physical problems; they somatize, they have stomach pains, they get sick and suffer. They become hopeless, they don\u2019t want to do this horrible work.\u201d<a href=\"#_edn20\" name=\"_ednref20\">[20]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I was asked by the World Health Organization to speak at the conference in Dublin<a href=\"#_edn21\" name=\"_ednref21\">[21]<\/a> next year about the mental health situation of prostituted women in Germany. What can I say? What is the mental health situation of a women that is reduced to a piece of meat? They are totally destroyed. A woman that is working in an exit program for prostituted women told me that there are just little (very few) women going out of prostitution. They will stay until they break down physically. It is just a matter of time. I asked myself, why it is like this? Because their will has been broken. They are not existing anymore as a person that has an identity and a future they can imagine for themselves. We are talking here about complex traumatisation.<\/p>\n<p>The German model is producing hell on earth. The lives and the rights of those women are sacrificed, but for what? Are they defending our democracy? Is it to protect our land from invasions or terrorism? No, those women are sacrificed so that some men can have sex whenever they want and with whom they want. And this is the problem. We have to focus on the sex buyer.<\/p>\n<p>The sex buyer is a social construction, it is not a fate. The numbers all over the world prove it: In England, you have 7% of the men who are sex buyers, in Spain 39%, 37% in Japan, 73% in Thailand\u2026<a href=\"#_edn22\" name=\"_ednref22\">[22]<\/a> It is a result of the unequal gender education. Prostitution does not resolve men\u00b4s problem, it is increasing their fear of entering into an equal relationship to women.<a href=\"#_edn23\" name=\"_ednref23\">[23]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When we talk about prostitution, we have to think about what kind of a society we want, not only about harm reduction. We need a new generation of men that does not resort to sexual exploitation and domination of women to define itself. <a href=\"#_edn24\">[24] <\/a>It is false to think that male sexuality is not controllable. Men have to learn a new way to deal with frustration.<\/p>\n<p>Normalizing prostitution means cementing the inequality between men and women and accepting violence against women. And this concerns all of us, women and men.
