The bizarre image of the ancient Mesopotamians partaking in religious sex at every possible opportunity was first expressed by the ancient Greek historian, who wrote: The foulest Babylonian custom is that which compels every woman of the land to sit in the temple of and have intercourse with some stranger once in her life. Many women who are rich and proud and disdain to mingle with the rest, drive to the temple in covered carriages drawn by teams, and stand there with a great retinue of attendants. But most sit down in the sacred plot of Aphrodite, with crowns of cord on their heads; there is a great multitude of women coming and going; passages marked by line run every way through the crowd, by which the men pass and make their choice. Once a woman has taken her place there, she does not go away to her home before some stranger has cast money into her lap, and had intercourse with her outside the temple; but while he casts the money, he must say, I invite you in the name of that is the Assyrian name for Aphrodite. It does not matter what sum the money is; the woman will never refuse, for that would be a sin, the money being by this act made sacred. So she follows the first man who casts it and rejects no one. After their intercourse, having discharged her sacred duty to the goddess, she goes away to her home; and thereafter there is no bribe however great that will get her. So then the women that are fair and tall are soon free to depart, but the uncomely have long to wait because they cannot fulfill the law; for some of them remain for three years, or four. There is a custom like this in some parts of Cyprus Mr. Réal Ménard: I agree with you that we need to do a lot of thinking about the clients. You probably know that a federal-provincial-territorial committee made some suggestions on this issue. Some provinces have even taken away drivers licences. Some clients are stigmatized and are dealt with as part of the strategy. Allegro Restaurant avec vue sur la piscine et servant des spécialités internationales.

When did you decide you wanted to start the whole Obey campaign? Hon. Hedy Fry: We advertise it every day in the newspapers and in the movies. My first question is going to go to Ann Pollak, the lawyer. I would suggest that this is a problem, because its obvious that the problem is not the prostitution, not the soliciting, but how, when, and where you solicit. I might even beg to say that the problem depends on how much you are charging. If youre charging a lot of money and you can do it in a wonderful little ad in the newspaper, then thats okay Mr. Art Hanger: Youre making a presentation; Im just trying to get your position here. Are you suggesting the law be repealed, or what? The 19th century was also the time of several fabulously rich in Paris, with being the most famous one Dr. Jacquelyn Nelson: This is an area of section 212, procuring youth involvement in the sex trade. At that time we also looked at, and this was passed, aggravated procuring-that is, the use of violence against youth. A higher penalty was recommended for that offence as well. Many of the elderly in Singapore have been subject to criticism online, specifically for not observing the new social distancing measures. But the lockdown affects everyone differently, especially older folks who live alone in small, one-room flats. Although men under 40 were banned from her brothel all Jack-the-lads boasting about their prowess she was proud that she provided for all sorts of men, and once said: Everyone can get lonely.. We even used to have some of them coming along in wheelchairs, although not too many because they tended to block up the corridors. What happened across Canada is that there are different categories of young people on the streets. The ones who are in the sex trade are the most high risk. With most of the young people who come to the streetsas Judy mentionedthe addiction hits them very quickly, especially in Vancouver. Its chicken and egg and which comes first. Ive worked with a lot of young men and young women who will actually use the word self-medicate as to why they have to sell themselves. Then youre dealing with the addictions. There are no addiction services in any coordinated fashion in this province. 
I understand that any city would prefer to have licensed practitioners and places of business operating properly and safely under their domain. The alternative would be unregulated and unprofessional purveyors of various products and services potentially creating a poor environment for consumers to be protected and served well. I submit that those who are in a business such as the sex trade, who cannot openly have a place of business and still be legal, and who also cannot solicit business are effectively being obstructed unlawfully from earning their livelihood.

I provide this information to you to give you a sense of the level of the VPDs commitment to reducing the victimization of sex trade workers, not just treating them as offenders Ms. Nelson, you spoke to us about section 213 of the Criminal Code, which is not yielding the results that we were hoping for. You have said that the sex trade is changing quickly and that the legal structure therefore needed to change. Your question, and indeed the one that this committee is asking is as follows: How can we ensure the safety of the prostitutes themselves and the neighbourhoods that are impacted by these problems? Youve also heard from Professor John Lowman about how the increase in the murders of prostitutes correlates with greater prohibitions. I commend you to that rather striking evidence and urge you to conclude that the social harm done by the prohibitions against the sex trade vastly outweighs any social harm generated by the sex trade or its associated activities. The bodies are piling up. Its time to make that connection. Think more deeply about the issues and craft some real solutions, not just a legislative fix-it that might look good on the surface. That approach continues to cost the lives of real women who have families and histories and futures. They are women whose lives matter. This page was last edited on 12 May 2020, at 04:33 UTC.

In conclusion, I can say that in our experience most sex trade workers do not freely choose to enter the sex trade. When they find themselves in the sex trade, it is very difficult for them to exit. While clearly not the solution to prostitution-related problems, the current legislation provides a tool to deter young people from entering the sex trade and to assist sex trade workers in leaving it. The legislation also provides a tool to address those who, using violence and coercion, profit from the sex trade; to address the increasing problem of human trafficking, and weve had a successful case in Vancouver recently of charging the traffickers; and to address the very real symptoms of the sex trade created in communities, including violence, discarded drug and sex paraphernalia, and the distress and danger caused by johns and predators coming into a neighbourhood.
