Sex for Sale: Inside a British Brothel - BBC News

Police are choosing to allow brothels to operate providing they create a safe environment for women, one former detective - now a brothel owner - has told the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire programme. We have been to meet the women working in his premises.

This lady is learned. She is articulate and exudes the type of confidence never seen in women in this type of profession. Thank you BBC for this rare interview.

[@liveontheverandah]

Women who ‘chose’ prostitution as in this interview are indeed rare. Even those who insist it’s OK- usually tell a different story once they’ve exited. Many are vulnerable, sexually abused as children or trafficked. This is a false narrative given in order to justify the unjustifiable.

40 pounds/client x 7/day = 280/day x 20 working days/mo = 5,600/mo or 61,600 over 11 months (assuming 1 month vacation). Compare this to the median salary in the UK being around 25k, and working fewer hours, the allure is obvious.

[@tennnyyyyson]

TheRamboBeast money isn’t everything, according to that logic we should all go rob a bank and disregard our morals

[@TheRamboBeast]

I'd personally rather earn 25k and work outside of the sex industry, but I respect everyone's free will and choice. The morality of the sex industry is entirely arbitrary -- society has decided that selling your body for sex is immoral but selling your time/life or brawn for work, including slaving in the sanctioned workplace of an office cubicle, is perfectly fine and moral. These are socially constructed norms.

Really enjoyed this enlightening video. I found the interviewer to be excellent, respectful, non-judgemental, asking the right questions. I liked listening to the owner-operator, he struck me as quite thorough in keeping his operation safe & none criminal, maintaining a good relationship with the police ( cheers to the police in that area). Lastly, l really found Louise to be refreshingly straight forward & honest, totally agree with her opinion of her work.. l have known for years that fortunately not all women workers in the sex trade are victims, a well known example decades ago being Xavieria Hollander. Also, found it positive to hear from Louise that more & more customers are regular type men.

[@probono3284]

I agree with all you say, though it did cross my mind whether the `good relationship with the police' might involve a few brown envelopes! After all, it seems fairly clear that this would be defined as a brothel for the purposes of the Sexual Offences Act 1956, so one would have to ask why the owner is not being prosecuted.

[@tanyacharbury4728]

I'm a software developer, and it's hard on my fingers, wrists, back and eyes. The clients are often a pain. Yet, working in a software company is a career I choose, along with its pros and cons, including working 80-hours weeks in years past, to pay my professional dues to my employer at the time. I'd find it odd if someone interviewing me starts out with the built-in skepticism of "she says she choose to work there" as if I lack agency. There is an implied premise in prefacing the statement with "she says..." Treating a sex worker as such in an interview does not give a neutral start to the interview. It feeds into the whole "rescue sex workers from themselves, because it strains credibility that anyone would choose this line of work" narrative that ends up harming sex workers more than helping them. Even so, this interview is likely to have done more good than harm ... so, thank you for that.

No life sentence plz 1,2 years max for traffickers

[@dcworld4349]

@@notwelcome2452 We give people close to 10 years for economic crimes like fraud, being caught manipulating stocks etc. And you want people who actually sell other human beings to get a slap on the wrist? It wouldn't remove such criminals altogether, and the problem will always be in the UK for example the women who have been born there, they are safe. Pretty much a guarantee that they haven't been essentially brainwashed from when they were children to infiltrate legal businesses for those criminals to get a cut sent back to their home country. But having a hard sentence, maybe not lifetime, but 10 years would make it dangerous for that abusive boyfriend who could be taking advantage of her being able to make more money than him in a short time. The ultimate goal should be for making it the safest environment for the seller and the customer. In a perfect world those would be the only two people involved just like regular sex is, but I can understand why it would feel safer for a woman to join a brothel. So instead by having it be completely legalized, regulated and unionized, you would get standards in place. And like we have seen in countries that have done this, sex crimes drops.

But for a brothel to be a legalised trade, you will need a Brothel Licence.
