The demand for paid sex dramatically increased, with legalization (and full decriminalization) with men coming from all over to abuse these women. While German women are involved in prostitution, an alarmingly high majority are trafficked to the country for prostitution. Mega brothels have menus as to what the women can be forced to do, others have a flat rate so men can have as much sex, with as many different women they want and sometimes it even comes with sausage and beer. Truly disturbing&nbsp;are the brothels where absolutely nothing is off-limits, nothing. Please let that sink in. Nothing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Women, prostituted or not, do not thrive in this environment. When men are able to ask anyone if they are for sale, it becomes an acceptable way to treat women and creates a climate where mutual respect and equality is dissolved.  Misogyny and patriarchy are allowed to thrive &#8211; and, in fact, rule &#8211; no matter the cost to women.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\" id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-74ed372a\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Palermo protocols<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ohchr.org\/EN\/ProfessionalInterest\/Pages\/ProtocolTraffickingInPersons.aspx\">The Palermo protocols <\/a>are three <strong>protocols<\/strong> that were adopted by the United Nations to supplement the 2000 Convention against Transnational Organized Crime (the Palermo Convention).

It deals with none of the systemic issues that she may be facing, does not secure her a good financial future and decentivises anyone profiting from her to let her go.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:69px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TIP Report<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>TIP stands for &#8216;Trafficking In Persons&#8217;, and is a report put out by US Department of State<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-header-text-color-color has-accent-background-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.state.gov\/reports\/2020-trafficking-in-persons-report\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">More info on TIP Report<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/template-fullwidth.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-208","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/208","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=208"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/208\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":257,"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/208\/revisions\/257"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/educating-voices.com\/new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=208"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
