For 3 years I've wanted to write about why men murder women in the sex trade. I've been waiting for the publication of a study on the subject in Germany that finally come out a month ago. Stay tuned for my summary. Its painful but necessary to know who, when, where and why.
The state sanctioning the sex trade does not prevent lethal violence against women in #prostitution. From hands-off essentially decriminalized Berlin to the nearly prohibitionist German South, here is who is killing whom, when, where, how, and why. ellyarrow.wordpress.com/2021/03/29/who…
Murder in the sex trade is about as old as the industry itself. In Germany paying for sex has rarely ever been expressly illegal, yet sex buyers make up more than half of perpetrators (a lot of serial killers are buyers). It's not illegality of the trade that makes men kill women Image

Thread on what #sexbuyers say about Asian women in the legal German sex industry. If we leave out the #sextrade from our critique of #racism, we will never dismantle it. #StopAsianHate. TW: Racism, misogyny, violence against women. (All images are stock photos) Image
„Basically I like the chinky eye type best. Love looking into her eyes while she’s blowing me." - German #sexbuyer. dieunsichtbarenmaenner.wordpress.com/2018/11/19/i-l… #StopAsianHate Image
„I find fully shaven women quite boring, so I’m practically only bedding Asians at this point. Amongst the Asians, you find the highest number of all-natural pussies. Besides that, Asian women know how to spoil a man.“ - German #sexbuyer dieunsichtbarenmaenner.wordpress.com/2018/11/29/asi… #StopAsianHate Image

New research on the history of legal #prostitution in Germany focussing on the murders of women in the sex trade by @manuelaschon and Anna Hoheide. I am proud to have helped with translating this work that shines a light into the darkest corners. digitalcommons.uri.edu/dignity/vol6/i…
Key findings on the murders of women in German legal #prostitution: The daily fear of violence, potentially lethal, remains real for women, despite less fear of arrest by police. The primary perpetrators are sex buyers. The state does not care to collect official statistics.
Critics will claim the German law is a form of legalization (tight regulation forcing some women into illegal status) while one should support New Zealand's decriminalization (minimizing laws specific to prostitution). False distinction: German law on the left, NZ on the right...

On International Day to End Violence Against Women In The Sex Trade, I am going to compile statistics and evidence about my country Germany specifically and how with 18 years of highly permissive laws towards brothel keepers, pimps and sex buyers we have arrived at the following:
Violence frequently starts prior to entry into the sex trade. It is not a myth that women in #prostitution are disproportionately neglected and abused physically, sexually or emotionally in childhood. According to gov-funded study half faced regular abuse: bmfsfj.de/blob/84328/0c8…
According to one study that asked 54 women in German prostitution, 41% entered were first exploited as minors. prostitutionresearch.com/pdf/Prostituti… International pro-prostitution oriented researchers confirm a rate of 20-40% entry into sexual exploitation as minors: aviatorpenguin.wordpress.com/2016/03/16/ado…

When we read reports of landlords harassing women in their apartments when they cannot pay their rent, we are rightly angry, disgusted and condemn this clear abuse of power. Much of #prostitution follows the same pattern: Not only the brothel operators, who think that a woman /1 Image
...in their brothel should always be accessible to them, but specficially the #sexbuyer a woman depends on to pay for such basic things as rent, food, etc. What is this other than an outsourcing of the dynamic between the #landlord who gets access to a tenant to the sexbuyer? /2
Either way, the woman is pressed for financial reasons to let a man get close to her with whom she does not want to be intimate.

Now many people will say that this is the case throughout #capitalism and many people do jobs they would rather not do. There is no question that /3
