-Removed-I know that prostitutes in the Netherlands pay tax and are unionised. I presume it’s the same in Belgium.
Prostitutes are protected by rape laws. It’s not like rape laws have a no-prostitute clause in them.
Prostitution should take place in brothels. To maximise the safety of the workers and cancel out street pimps; minimising the criminal element.
There should be health and safety in the workplace as is. I mean, it’s not like health and safety has a no-brothel clause.
Etc.
See it as a layer of protection. Benefits which will help sex workers. Is it perfect? Probably not. But it’s way better than nothing at all.
@shavixmir saidAnd who owns the brothels? Do the prostitutes pay rent? Do they keep all their earnings?

As a client, would you rather go to a brothel or have the prostitute come to your house/hotel?
Ideally I think it should be legalized everywhere, tough nut to crack regarding tax paying though.
Human trafficking is also a major problem with brothels.
@shavixmir saidBlind as a bat you are. At the current rate of Islamic immigration into Europe, which is about 1,000,000/year, and the very high fertility rate of Muslim women, which is about 3 to 4 times that of the indigenous population, it is forecasted that Islam will be an occupying force in Europe in about 2 decades.

Does it solve all issues surrounding sex work and trafficking? No. Obviously not.
It does give women protection and the same rights they have in other jobs.
Well done Belgium!
So your sex workers have about 25 years or so to enjoy their new-found rights. In Islamic countries there is no such thing as prostitution. Perps are stoned to death.
Enjoy... 🙂

@shavixmir saidI know, the truth is not nice. Here is a summary of a book by Bruce Bawer: While Europe Slept: How Radical Islam is Destroying the West from Within
Fvck off you fascist pig.
The struggle for the soul of Europe today is every bit as dire and consequential as it was in the 1930s. Then, in Weimar, Germany, the center did not hold, and the light of civilization nearly went out. Today, the continent has entered yet another “Weimar moment.” Will Europeans rise to the challenge posed by radical Islam, or will they cave in once again to the extremists?
As an American living in Europe since 1998, Bruce Bawer has seen this problem up close. Across the continent—in Amsterdam, Oslo, Copenhagen, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, and Stockholm—he encountered large, rapidly expanding Muslim enclaves in which women were oppressed and abused, homosexuals persecuted and killed, “infidels” threatened and vilified, Jews demonized and attacked, barbaric traditions (such as honor killing and forced marriage) widely practiced, and freedom of speech and religion firmly repudiated.
The European political and media establishment turned a blind eye to all this, selling out women, Jews, gays, and democratic principles generally—even criminalizing free speech—in order to pacify the radical Islamists and preserve the illusion of multicultural harmony. The few heroic figures who dared to criticize Muslim extremists and speak up for true liberal values were systematically slandered as fascist bigots. Witnessing the disgraceful reaction of Europe’s elites to 9/11, to the terrorist attacks on Madrid, Beslan, and London, and to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Bawer concluded that Europe was heading inexorably down a path to cultural suicide.
Europe's Muslim communities are powder kegs, brimming with an alienation born of the immigrants’ deep antagonism toward an infidel society that rejects them and compounded by misguided immigration policies that enforce their segregation and empower the extremists in their midst. The mounting crisis produced by these deeply perverse and irresponsible policies finally burst onto our television screens in October 2005, as Paris and other European cities erupted in flames.
The women wont have long to enjoy their life as sex workers.

Jeeeezus, don't tell me we agree for a change!?
Their body, their mind... Two consenting adults.
Why the bleep can't other "advanced" nations figure this out?
Damn right, I'm a Libertarian, and proud of it.
