All that thinking and governing elite
What do they know about prostitution?
Do they talk to them?
Do they offer mental health resources to their pains?
Do they know the real pimps?
Are the Social Services close to the collective knowing their peculiarities such as age, profession, race, nationality and above all, if they work freely or coerced?
And it is very easy for the City Council simply controlling and ending with the deliveries of very sensual “estampita” ¹ those that collect a lot of kids in our neighborhoods.
Is it the responsibility of the City Council?
But when our younger have the domain of the networks, and they have an interest in something it is very easy for them to access the information they want, and if the info they want is from the sexual market there they can get “estampillas” of higher quality and some service.
Is there a real way of controlling the entry to these websites by minors? Is there a real interest in doing so?
And whose responsibility is it to surveillance the pages of ads of the sex market? In them the main pimps is that appear.
I assume that the special services of the security forces from Spain and Europe are vigilant and know the mafias that move them, as well as the extortion of both workers and customers who are too innocent.
Sexuality is a precious commodity that everyone likes as long as it is voluntary and pleasurable.
In my time it was easier to have someone you know selling their body, or whatever, to live than to meet a judge. And damn the time you met him.
There were women, transexuals and some male prostitutes in the Casa de Campo, carried at night by vans, any nationality any race in a supermarket of sex.
At some point access to this Madrid park is restricted and they must reinvent themselves.
This business has always existed and it has always been paternalistic and basically revolving around the male in any of the sexualities then the road brothels and red-light places are created.
And the meublés !Niñas al salón²! Belle de jour, piano, mat and candle.
These are the brothels I heard about.
But the history of prostitution is millenary and in India it was shown the sensuality of professionals.
Surely you know that even in the most sacred places from the Vatican to Saudi Arabia there is camouflaged prostitution.
You may meet at some reception with rulers of countries from which they do nothing against sex tourism and surely profit from it. Do you know how many dollars people live with in those countries?
And it is not very difficult to understand this world by simply visiting the pages of sexual contacts. They usually appear as people who freely offer themselves to be able to live. Curiously, many of these people are usually foreigners, many of them do not have papers and without many possibilities to find jobs in other sectors that do not exploit you in exchange for 1,000 euros.
It is not difficult for a young person to enter that market.
Perhaps firstly “the thinking heads” of the country should talk to that real population, which has existed for millennia.
Perhaps their work should be recognised with sectors of the population with different abilities than those who approach sensuality and affection for an amount of money. The City Council could have "social" workers for this need in this population.
Perhaps they could at least regularise their situation and even recognise the time worked.
This sector should have representation in power and within society.
Perhaps they should have easy, accessible and non-judgemental healthcare.
It is also undoubtedly known that there are friends in your neighbourhood who compare what you would earn cleaning houses with what you would earn with your affection and for some even part of the youth, as the situation is now, prostitution is a way out.
.
And that invented world that makes people want to emulate what they receive from more or less intelligent and hidden screens, which show us luxuries and fashion, the world of eternal beauty and youth, where values are not important and everything happens at breakneck speed.
These screens provide you with information on how to access the ideal places where you can fulfil your erotic and intimate dreams, with no other requirements than a verbal pact of trust.
Perhaps those who govern us should keep track of the prostitution websites from where the whole of this business surely moves, even if it is only for tax and health reasons. And while the thinking heads elucidate whatever it is, regularise the situation of this population and give alternatives not vain words, never prosecute, which is often humiliating to allow the free choice of people.
Remember that it is your obligation to demonstrate effectiveness in overcoming mafias and delinquency in this professional sector or in others.
In other times, not so long ago, power protected brothels in a paternalistic relationship, we do not expect from this new society those forms, perhaps we do expect empathy with the collective, to favour, to give health, educational, trade union and legal support, to protect from abuses and violence as in other sectors.
The strength of this collective is similar to that of the gladiators when they rebelled against oppression. Some Joan of Arc will appear.
Honestly, would society be able to live on without prostitution?
It's easy to solve, give coverage, give alternatives, make the world fairer and less Taliban.
