The appropriation of women in the XXI century: From prostitution to sexual work Why to legislate for the abolition?
Abstract
Prostitution has been considered a way of exploitation of women’s body along centuries; nowadays we talk about sex labor and autonomy, the power of choosing and is here where the dilemma of that if women’s choosing of the bad-named “oldest profession of the world” in a free, responsible and informed way of livelihood even though there are other forms of employment is true? We live in such a context where what most matters are the market and the use of women’s body as an object of debris. Seeing prostitution as a job is not viable, there should be legislation in order to abolish it.
