Product one:

"The World of Sex Work" Research paper

"From transgender escorts in Brazil, to cuddle cafe girls in Japan, to sugar babies in the United States, sex is sold to fit any need, desire, and environment. The sex trade is a complex, lucrative business that runs deep in cultures, nations, and economies. The elaborate system is built on the internet, addiction and above all, the major generation of money. The international desire for sex is irrepressible and nations across the world struggle to deal with the world’s oldest profession and the demand for sex. Decriminalization, partial decriminalization, criminalization, and the Nordic/Swedish model are some of the most prominent ways to regulate. Each system comes with benefits and disadvantages. Decriminalization is the most progressive and beneficial for the safety and social and economic equality of sex workers. When the rights and safety of sex workers are accounted for in legislation, the formation of equal societies is started. Sex work is as legitimate as any other form of work, sex workers are real people. The expensive escorts in New York City, brothel workers in Cambodia, and street workers in South Africa can all benefit from the system of decriminalization".
