PERSPECTIVES ON SEX WORKER Perspectives on sex worker's rights generally fall into two categories: Traditionally feminist perspective: - The first perspective is the traditionally feminist perspective assumes that all people involved in sex work have been coerced, bribed, blackmailed or forced into the trade. Legitimate business perspective: - The second perspective is that sex work is legitimate business. No one can deny that sex work often involves poor health, financial exploitation and physical and sexual abuse.
COMMERCIAL SEX WORKERS Aspects of Commercial Sex Law The main law dealing with people in sex work is the Immoral Trafficking (Prevention) Act (ITPA) of 1986, which seeks to prevent trafficking of persons in India It, also allows for eviction of sex workers from their residences in the name of "public interest". The prohibition against "public solicitation" is particularly ambiguous. Rescue and Restore One strategy that has been used by international anti-trafficking groups and Indian law enforcement officials have been "rescue and restore" missions. The ITPA has offences like detaining a person "with or without his consent" in premises where prostitution is carried on or taking a person, "with or without his consent" for the purpose of prostitution. Stigma and Marginalization Stigmatization is experienced as the major factor that prevents women in sex work from accessing their rights. Due to this discrimination, women in sex work have been denied safety, proper healthcare, education and most importantly.
HIV/AIDS HIV/AIDS has served to further stigmatize sex workers by labeling them as "vectors" and "carriers" of the disease. Disregarding the complex web of political, economic and social factors affecting heterosexual transmission of the virus, public health officials have singled out women in prostitution as core transmitters. It is little recognized that sex workers can be powerful actors in preventing the spread of HIV. Education Lack of education is a major inhibitor among both sex workers and their children. Studies have shown that women in sex work have considerably lower levels of education than surrounding populations. Prevention and Control of Prostitution 1. Sex education 2. Change of rigid social customs 3. Job opportunities 4. Social education and propaganda 5. Adequate legislation 6. Rehabilitation
