Das Projekt vom Abgeordneten Fernando Gabeira (PV-RJ) die Prostitution in Brasilien zu legalisieren wurde diese Woche von der CCJC (Comissão de Constituição e Justiça da Câmara) mit grosser Mehrheit abgelehnt.

Damit hat das Projekt von Gabeira keine Chance zu einer Gesetzes-Abstimmung ins Parlament zu kommen. Die Abgeordneten Marcelo Itajiba (PMDB-RJ) und Mauricio Rands (PT-PE) haben jedoch angekündigt das sie das soeben abgelehnte Projekt dennoch weiterbringen wollen – ob dies gelingen wird, ist jedoch eher unwahrscheinlich.

Die Gegner dieser Initiative sprachen von einem äusserst schlechten Licht das dann auf Brasilien scheinen würde und lehnen kategorisch jede Aktion ab, die zu einer Legalisierung der Prostitution in Brasilien führen könnte.

Für Gabeira ist genau das Gegenteil der Fall. Das Bild von Brasilien würde nicht schlechter sein als das von Holland oder Deutschland – in beiden Ländern ist die Prostitution legal und beide Länder verfügen weltweit über einen hervorragenden Ruf.

Der Gesetzesentwurf von Abgeordneten Gabeira basierte auf das Gesetz das am 1. Jänner 2002 in Deutschland in Kraft getreten ist - was die Prostitution als Gewerbe anerkennt. Unter anderem werden damit denn Männern und Frauen aus diesem Gewerbe, die notwendigen Rechte wie Pensionsanspruch und Krankenversicherung zugesichert und deren Berufs-Ausübung aus der Illegalität geholt.

Im Zusammenhang mit der Diskriminierung von Prostitution

liest man oft von Begleitkriminalität.



In Brasilien ist es anders herum:

Dort gibt es illegale Goldsuche und den Regenwald zerstörende Erzbergwerke
und eben auch Begleit-Prostitution.

São Paulo (RPO). Brasilianische Internet-Nutzer haben ein Prostitutions-Nachschlagewerk im Internet nach dem Vorbild der Online-Enzyklopädie Wikipedia gegründet.

Ziel von Wikigata sei es, eine "rasche und klare Übersicht über Ort und Art zu geben, in der die Prostituierten arbeiten", heißt es auf der Website. Nutzer können auf der Website die Daten hunderter von Prostituierten nachschlagen einschließlich der geforderten Preise, Adresse und Benotungen durch Freier.

Enthalten sind zudem Fotos, Beschreibungen, Telefonnummern, Arbeitszeiten und Details über Art und Umfang der angebotenen sexuellen Dienstleistungen. Auch für einen detaillierten Lebenslauf der Damen ist Platz vorgesehen.

Brazil's sex tourism boom


Young children are supplying an increasing demand from foreign tourists who travel to Brazil for sex holidays, according to a BBC investigation. Chris Rogers reports on how the country is overtaking Thailand as a destination for sex tourism and on attempts to curb the problem.

Her small bikini exposes her tiny frame. She looks no older than 13 - one of dozens of girls parading the street looking for clients in the blazing mid-afternoon sun. Most come from the surrounding favelas - or slums.

As I park my car, the young girl dances provocatively to catch my attention.

"Hello my name is Clemie - you want a programme?" she asks, programme being the code word they use for an hour of sex. Clemie asks for less than $5 (£3) for her services. An older woman standing nearby steps in and introduces herself as Clemie's mother.

"You have the choice of another two girls, they are the same age as my daughter, the same price," she explains. "I can take you to a local motel where a room can be rented by the hour."

I make my excuses and head towards the bars and brothels of the nearby red-light district.

Despite assurances of a police crackdown, there appears to be little evidence of child prostitution disappearing from the streets of Recife. In four years' time, the country will be hosting the World Cup, which will fuel its booming economy.

Brazil has defied the global economic downturn thanks, in part, to its exotic, endless beaches attracting record numbers of tourists.

The country's erotic reputation has long been attracting an unwanted type of tourist. Every week specialist holiday operators bring in thousands of European singles on charted flights looking for cheap sex. Now Brazil is overtaking Thailand as the world's most popular sex-tourist destination.

[....]

Most sex tourists used to head to the city of Fortaleza some 500 miles away.

But not anymore. For the past year, the state capital of Ceara - which also a World Cup host city - has been sending a clear message to sex tourists that they are not welcome. Every week a dozen armed cars and federal police armed with AK-47s sweep through the streets of the red-light district, breaking down the doors of motels and brothels, arresting offenders and taking underage girls into care.

Eline Marques, the city's secretary of state for child protection, claims her relentless raids are having an effect.

"We have shut down many establishments in Fortaleza. Entire streets are now cleared of prostitution. My aim is to intensify these raids in time for the World Cup, targeting the very tourism that encourages child prostitution," she says.

[...]

The British charity Happy Child International plans to build more centres to house a growing number of child prostitutes.

"The crisis for these children turning to prostitution has increased significantly in the north-east of Brazil over the last few years, fuelled by increasing numbers of foreign tourists who travel to Brazil for sex holidays," says Sarah de Carvalho of Happy Child International.

"It is so important to take the children away from the lure of the streets and break the cycle and give them a safe place to live and receive help."

But charities and police crackdowns have yet to reach children like Pia, the 13-year-old prostitute whom I met on the streets of Recife.

Her home is a small shack she shares with her mother, two brothers and 12-year-old sister, who had still failed to return home. It was nothing more than a crumbling shed with two sofas acting as a bed and a plastic bucket to wash clothes and plates.

When I asked Casa if her daughters' work in prostitution breaks her heart, she appeared more concerned that they fail to bring home money. "If they make money they don't bring it home. No - they don't bring any money home," she said.

Pia told me that one day she hopes to break out of prostitution. She said she had heard of charities that provide a home for girls like her.

Sexarbeiterin Gabriela S. Leite kandidiert fürs Parlament:

Prostitute Campaigns for a Seat in the Brazilian Federal Congress


Thaddeus Blanchette
In: Wagadu – feminist on-line Journal, Volume 8 Fall 2010
Dr. Thaddeus Blanchette is an adjunct professor of anthropology at the Federal University of
Rio de Janeiro who specializes in the study of people trafficking, prostitution and sexual tourism.


Under the slogan “Uma puta deputada” (a pun meaning either "congressional whore" or "a bitchin' [awesome] congresswoman"), sex workers’ rights activist and retired prostitute Gabriela Silva Leite has launched her candidacy for a seat in Brazil’s House of Representatives.

Fiftyeight year old Leite is running on the Green Party ticket in the state of Rio de Janeiro. If elected, she promises to focus on “defending women’s liberty”, a task which includes supporting sex workers’ demands in the Brazilian Congress. “We don’t have clear public policies for [sex workers],” said Leite in an interview for Terra Notícias. “Our laws are confused.

It’s not illegal to be a prostitute, but maintaining a ‘house of prostitution’ is a crime.

People know that prostitutes exist, that we are part of society, but they want to sweep that under the rug. What I’d like to do is work with public policy for change.”

Leite was born into a middle class family in the state of São Paulo. In 1969, she entered the prestigious University of São Paulo (USP), where she took night classes in philosophy and sociology.

A year into her studies, however, Leite dropped out and became a prostitute. “I worked as a secretary all day and at night I’d go to USP,” says Leite, describing her decision. “Coming back from school, I’d pass by the old Hotel Hilton, which housed a chic nightclub frequented by high-class prostitutes. I’d see the girls show up in their expensive clothes and I thought ‘I need to make a radical change in my life’.”

While working as a prostitute, Leite organized demonstrations against the police violence directed at sex workers during the military regime. Moving from São Paulo to Rio de Janeiro, she founded the first prostitutes’ association in Brazil and became one of the leaders of the national sex workers’ movement.

Later, she founded the Davida Prostitutes’ Rights Association in Rio (“Davida” meaning literally “of the Life”). Due in part to Leite’s significant efforts in this regard, Brazil continues to utilize sex workers in safe sex education and has recently declared “sex worker” to be a legitimate occupational category for tax and social security purposes.

Davida is a part of the Brazilian Prostitutes Network, with which it engages in the struggle to make sex work a legitimate activity in Brazil.

In recent years, Leite has gained notoriety by founding the “Daspu” brand, a line of clothes designed and modeled by prostitutes and their supporters (which can be seen and ordered at www.davida.org.br). Proceeds from Daspu are plowed into the prostitutes’ rights struggle. “Daspu gives us an income that is independent of outside groups,” says Leite.

Here, Leite is referring to the United States Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria Act of 2003 (House Resolution 1298/Public Law 108-025), which cut off Brazilian sex workers’ rights groups from USAID funding. “Though these groups are often well-meaning, they also are subject to political pressures” Leite has said, “An example of this is USAID which no longer funds our award-winning anti-HIV work because of a Bush-era determination (untouched by Obama) that public moneys cannot be given to groups that advocate for prostitutes ‘rights [Anti Prostitution Pledge - Anti-Prostitutions-Bürgschaft].

With our own clothing line, we generate a small but significant income stream for our projects that cannot be touched by political concerns.”

Technically legal, Brazil’s sex workers left out of unionization push
Though legally recognized professionals, the country's prostitutes have been unable to win labor rights.


Elizabeth TuttleMay 20, 2012 07:00

RIO DE JANEIRO — It's a Saturday night under Rio’s historic Lapa Arches and, despite the tropical drizzle, weekend revelers pack the streets. Nestled between Santa Teresa's bohemian foothills and the city's industrial downtown, the Lapa neighborhood works nightly to defend its reputation for the best street parties in Brazil, replete with dirt-cheap caipirinhas by the half-liter and "dirty foot" dance clubs lining the streets.

Rosa M. works two floors up form the street-level chaos, doubling as a prostitute and a bathroom attendant at one of Lapa's many nightclubs.

Ostensibly, her job is to pass out paper towels and direct patrons to available stalls, though it is here that she meets and conducts the majority of her sexual exchanges. She wears blue jeans, a collared shirt and almost no makeup.

Unlike many of her fellow sex workers, Rosa works "freelance" — she doesn't rent out a brothel room or work under a pimp or madame, arrangements that bring protection but remain illegal in Brazil. Though the exchange of sex for money has been technically legal since 1949, sexual commerce remains embedded deep within society's informal sector, seen as a disreputable “spot job,” as Rosa says, rather than a profession deserving of corresponding rights.

While other industries have unionized and steadily built up worker protections, Brazil’s sex workers have been unable to follow suit as they have in other countries where the sex trade has been legalized, plagued by social stigma and strict laws around prostitution.

• “Sex professionals' daily lives are still replete with violations of basic human rights.”
  ~Simone Gomes, ProMundo Institute

"It's lonely and can be scary; I haven't been at it long," Rosa told me. "I hear a lot about police brutality … but I have been lucky. I have kids; I don't want to be doing this forever ... I go by the law."

As Rosa spoke, she looked around, speaking in hushed tones. But why the attitude of secrecy when prostitution has long been legal in Brazil?

“Look, this isn’t the type of spot job you want to be caught doing,” she replied.

Despite 60 years of legality in Brazil, sex work remains one of the most dangerous, stigmatized and unstable livelihoods in the country.

"Prostitution is still highly criminalized in Brazil," said Simone Gomes, a representative for the ProMundo Institute, based jointly in Brazil and Washington, DC. "Sex professionals' daily lives are still replete with violations of basic human rights."

Prostitutes can't
- apply for pensions or
- retirement funds, nor can they
- receive other forms of government regulation, like
- identification cards or
- regularly scheduled health checks.
With limited access to health services and given the nature of their work, female sex workers’ estimated HIV infection rate is 14 times higher than the rate for Brazilian women at large.

Brazil's union federations have routinely turned away sex worker groups as “non-workers,” refusing to recognize sex work as a legitimate profession worthy of mobilization, collective bargaining or strike potential, despite the fact that sex work has been included in the Ministry of Employment’s list of professions for almost a decade.

Thus women like Rosa have found themselves in a nebulous loophole of tacit criminality from which escape is extremely difficult.





In 2002, a São Paulo-based prostitute attempted to create the first Brazilian trade union for sex workers, but it failed to get off the ground due to "juridical issues…and public stigma," according to an interview with its founder in Problems of Brazil magazine.

In 2003, Congressman Fernando Gabeira worked with activists to introduce an amendment to the Brazilian Penal Code — a document that has remained unchanged since 1940 — that would bring sex work under formal channels of operation. Sex worker collectives would also be legalized and regulated, creating a legal labor relationship that could be monitored for abuses.

In its first appearance on a national level, the Penal Code amendment bill was shot down on a technicality without going to a vote, and has been in and out of parliamentary discussion for the better part of the decade. It hasn't reappeared in Congress since 2009.

Elsewhere in South America:
- Uruguay,
- Ecuador and
- Bolivia
have begun the process of unionizing sex work and thereby bringing the profession into the formal economy.

In Bolivia, over 45,000 sex workers have been formally registered with the government. Among other benefits, they receive weekly check-ups and health examinations free of cost. Currently, unionized sex workers have organized a hunger strike to end the country's month-long doctor’s strike, which has affected their regularly scheduled visits. The strike has garnered international attention.

Sex workers in Uruguay, united under a trade union, now have identification cards and more regulated health services options. As many as 1,200 prostitutes in Uruguay now have pension plans and health coverage.

In the Netherlands, the legalization of brothels in 2000 led directly to the acceptance of prostitutes into country's most powerful trade union federation, FNV Vakcentrale www.fnv.nl . Now, Dutch prostitutes who work in brothels are seen as contracted employees of veritable businesses, with no legal discrepancies or informalities remaining.

Even in countries where sex work is legal, progress is often slow. In India, the Karnataka Sex Workers Union has worked for several years to gain recognition as a legitimate trade union, but prostitutes remain deep within the country's informal, unregulated sector.





In Brazil the inherent linkage between sex work and illegality has led directly to the high level of police and citizen brutality against prostitutes, as well as the stigmatization of the profession. Because pimps pay the police to keep the peace, prostitutes remain unable to report abusive conditions.

And as brothels operate outside of the law’s strictures, regulation of child prostitution and trafficking has also become a pressing issue. According to a study by the ProMundo Institute, sexual exploitation of children and adolescents has risen 58% since 2003. Brazil also has the second-worst record on child sex trafficking, surpassed only by Thailand.

Activist argue that as mega-events loom in Brazil’s imminent future — with FIFA’s world cup set to launch in 12 Brazilian cities in 2014, and the 2016 Summer Olympics to take place in Rio de Janeiro — the impending swell of sexual tourism necessitates more robust legislative and unionization opportunities for sex workers.

“Tourism, and particularly tourism related to sports mega-events correlate to increased cases of sexual exploitation in the country, and that’s why so many initiatives are being formed now to stop exploitation in the country beforehand,” said ProMundo’s Gomes.

In the face of systematic rejection from formal unions and amid widespread public stigma, a group of Brazilian sex workers and advocates have galvanized around an intermediary goal of creating NGO-based networks and resources for prostitutes, focusing on achieving basic citizenship and human rights for sex workers themselves rather than through labor unions.





Led by activist and ex-prostitute Gabriela Leite, whose 2009 autobiography "Mother, Daughter, Grandmother, Whore" has been turned into a Brazilian Broadway play and is currently being produced into a blockbuster film, they're working to take prostitution out of the shadows of Brazilian society.

These activists look to cultivate an informally unionized body of sex workers who are literate about their rights, who deem themselves worthy of professional status and who are working to fight current stigma against the profession.





When Leite moved to Rio de Janeiro in 1982, she was 32 years old and fell fast in love with Vila Mimosa, the historic red light district of Rio de Janeiro. The relentlessly packed streets, at that time set to a samba beat, were hemmed in by the countless cavernous brothels most frequented by Rio's working class population.

She had initially come to work in the touristic and luxurious Copacabana neighborhood, but one day made her way to the North Zone out of curiosity, trading beachfront and chic restaurants for a small, un-air-conditioned room. She ended up spending the next 12 years living and working in Vila Mimosa.

• "I prefer working men, factory workers, taxi and truck drivers," she said. "Brazilian men from all regions who fight to survive."

Though the locale has changed and the music has shifted from samba to Brazilian funk, Vila Mimosa still serves as Rio's iconic red light district, the "girl from Ipanema" for the working-class Brazilian. It also remains emblematic of the vast contradictions plaguing the state of sex work in the country, in which a vastly illegal entity is emblematic of a completely legal profession.

During her years in Vila, Leite became increasingly frustrated with police abuses and the fringe nature of her profession. She has spent her career working at the forefront of the movement to tear prostitution free of its current societal role, working to guarantee human rights for prostitutes and instill in them a sense of professional pride.

She, along with her husband, edits the online journal “Street Kiss,” by and for prostitutes, with a readership of over 20,000.

Leite also founded Daspu — a pun on the Portuguese word for "hooker" — the first fashion line by and for prostitutes. Their goal is not to “take anyone out of prostitution ... but to fight for prostitutes’ citizenship, like the right to work for themselves in better conditions, to access public services and other societal goods without discrimination, and for heightened self-esteem.”

In addition to such cultural inroads, Leite founded the nonprofit organization Davida and organized the Network of Brazilian Prostitutes, the first organization to unify sex workers nationwide. In these more official capacities, she has partnered with the Ministry of Health for anti-AIDS campaigns with slogans like, “You have a profession, girl! Don’t be ashamed, so use a condom!”

Brasilien vor der Fußball-WM
Prostituierte büffeln Englisch

Brasilien bereitet sich auf die Fußball-WM im kommenden Jahr vor - auch die Prostituierten, die auf gute Geschäfte hoffen dürfen. Um sich mit den ausländischen Gästen auch verständigen zu können, arbeiten einige nun noch an ihren Fremdsprachenkenntnissen.


Alleine in Belo Horizonte gibt es rund 80.000 Prostituierte.

Damit auch die Prostituierten gut auf die Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft vorbereitet sind, gibt es in der brasilianischen Stadt Belo Horizonte Gratis-Englischkurse für sie. "Sie werden nicht nur alltägliche Begriffe lernen, sondern auch technisches Vokabular zu sexuellen Beziehungen", sagte die Vorsitzende von Aspromig, des Prostituierten-Verbandes im Bundesstaat Minas Gerais, Cida Vieira. Schließlich müssten sie in der Lage sein, auch mit den ausländischen Kunden "über ihre Fetische zu sprechen".

In Belo Horizonte, der Hauptstadt von Minas Gerais, wird im kommenden Jahr ein Halbfinale der Fußball-WM ausgerichtet. Laut Vieira sind bislang rund 20 Prostituierte für die Spezial-Sprachkurse angemeldet, weitere 300 Einschreibungen müssten noch bearbeitet werden. Die Nachfrage drohe aber, das Angebot bei weitem zu übersteigen. "Es gibt 80.000 Prostituierte in Belo Horizonte, in den Straßen, Diskos, Massagesalons, und die Nachfrage wächst immer weiter", berichtete Vieira.

Außer Englisch- werden den Sexarbeiterinnen ab März auch Spanisch- und Französischkurse angeboten. Sie sollen ein halbes Jahr dauern und werden von ehrenamtlichen Lehrern in den Räumen einer Vereinigung von Homosexuellen und Transsexuellen gegeben. Aspromig macht sich für eine Anerkennung von Prostitution als normalen Beruf stark und bietet Prostituierten kostenlose medizinische und psychologische Betreuung an.

red light district, which constitutes a cluster of close to 80 houses and over a thousand prostitutes.

When King Albert of Belgium came to town in 1920, police rounded up the city’s lower-class prostitutes, arrested them and moved them out of sight to the outskirts of the city, inadvertently forming Rio’s first red light district. In 1968, police literally boarded up the red light district, then in its second location, to hide it from the view of Queen Elizabeth II’s procession through the city.

“We all know that certain police officials get a handsome chunk of change from the high-end termas [Sauna-Clubs] as silent partners. At the Monte Carlo brothel, they went in at the precise moment that a local cop official was there, presumably to pick up the cash.”

Solidaritäts-Aktion vergleichbar zu der derzeit in Wien:

Operation Princess in Rio de Janeiro:
Policing 'Sex Trafficking', Strengthening Worker Citizenship, and the Urban Geopolitics of Security in Brazil


Gendered insecurities of the neoliberal state in Latin America. Exploring the militarization of public security in Rio de Janeiro during 2003–08 around campaigns to stop the ‘trafficking’ of sex workers. Findings illuminate the intersection of 3 neoliberal governance logics:

(1) a moralistic humanitarian-rescue agenda promoted by evangelical populists and police groups;

(2) a juridical ‘law and rights’ logic promoted by justice-sector actors and human-rights NGOs;

(3) a worker-empowerment logic articulated by the governing Workers’ Party (PT) in alliance with social-justice movements, police reformers, and prostitutes’ rights groups.

Gender and race analyses map the antagonisms between these 3 logics of neoliberal governance, and how their incommensurabilities generate crisis in the arena of security policy. By exploring Brazil’s fraught efforts to attain the status of ‘human security superpower’ through these interventions, the article challenges the view that the reordering of security politics in the global south is inevitably linked to desecularization, disempowerment, and militarization.

Sextourism by English speaking men to Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro.

Complex web of structural and ideological factors which influence these men when they opt for the “Marvelous City”.

Among these, our informants highlight
(1) the legality of prostitution,
(2) the existence of a well-structured commercial sexual market,
(3) relatively low prices and a series of ideological visions regarding
(4) “typical Brazilian women” which are based upon notions of race and gender.

Basing our analysis on these men's testimonies, we dispute the hegemonic discourse of Brazilian policy-makers that a “sexualized” vision of Brazilian women, transmitted by the mass media and by EMBRATUR, has led to the propagation of sexual tourism in Rio de Janeiro.

Ich freue mich auf die WM. Brasilien ist in der ganzen Welt für seine schönen, üppigen und sexuell anziehenden Frauen bekannt. Deshalb erwarte ich gute Geschäfte. Normalerweise nehmen wir 20 bis 50 Real (6,50 bis 16,50 Euro), aber von den Touristen können wir mehr verlangen. Nicht nur die FIFA sollte von der WM profitieren. Immerhin sind wir wohl fast die einzigen, denen die FIFA keine Auflagen gemacht hat (lacht). Wie auch? Wir sind ja nirgendwo registriert. Ich mache meinen Job gerne. Allerdings befürchte ich, dass während der WM auch Mädchen und Frauen zur Prostitution gezwungen werden.
