Forced Prostitution - Spain

Mar 1998
Europe's free circulation of people and goods has spawned a slave trade: Portuguese women are being lured over the border to Spain, where they are sold into prostitution. Electric shocks, cigarette burns and severe beatings frighten many Portuguese women into the job. We go inside Portuguese-owned puticlubs (whorehouses) - technically illegal, but tolerated by the authorities. You can buy sex with any one of the women gyrating in thigh boots by the empty dance floor. Deolinda was abducted at 13. She took a job as a waitress only to find a pimp waiting for her. A pimp admits that most of the girls will never earn the high wages they are promised and all become 'objects'. A good-looking 'object' is sold at a price she can never pay off. Those who refuse to work are tortured. They move bars every three weeks, to coincide with their menstrual cycle. We ask one bar-owner why he offers 'hostesses'. He concedes: 'There are no Saints here'. The women are exploited to the point of exhaustion, diseased or addicted to drugs. Video cameras, barred windows and high walls keep them in. Contains horrific testimony

@comtessen As long as there is poverty, ignorance and greed there will be prostitution. Sex slavery or any form of human exploitation is something which should be seriously punished. For the poor women in this video I feel nothing but pain. But female "Johns" and traffickers do exist; women who exploit men, other women and children for profit and their own selfish desires. Ignoring that wont help the people who suffer at their hands. So please don't make it seem like it's a purely one sided deal

[kwynrhys]

Prostitution is a hugh problem in modern day slavery. We need to 100% illegalize prostitution! Stricter laws and relief poverty, increase education. This is do-able around the world...

this is disgusting but you better try to not mix things, im not going to defend its morality but the problem here is not the prostitution itself, it is the slavery. like it or not, women (and men) have to be free to sell their bodies if they like to, of course they have to be free to choose to do it and this is not the case. today this problem still exists, mainly in costa del sol and other tourist locations where different mafias (russian, italian, albanian, romanian,..) spread their influence
