In Sweden, it is legal to be a prostitute, but it is illegal to be a customer of a prostitute.

@Fact So two prostitutes can meet right ? That makes both legal

@Fact Not surprising, it is an efficient way to protect the prostitutes while scaring the potential customers, because the prostitutes can report them if they feel like to do so.

@Fact wow that is a weird law

The Swedish view is that most people who sell sex do so because of economic pressure, coercion, addiction, migration insecurity, or past abuse. So instead of punishing the sex seller, the law treats them as victims, or someone who may need support by offering exit programs, housing, healthcare, and legal protection. By criminalizing prostitutes would push them deeper underground, less likely to seek help, and increase dependence on pimps and violent clients. The logic is simple, don’t punish people for being sold, punish people for buying, because the buyer holds all the power, creates demand, and perpetuates structural inequality.

@Fact The law is smarter.....

@Fact Makes perfect sense Because then you arrest the actual criminals, not the women who are largely trafficked

@Fact This seems like laws in the book and white collar crime. Who will report the customer of a legal prostitute to the authorities?

@Fact In Canada 🇨🇦 too

@Fact How then are the prostitutes supposed to make money?

@Fact Interestin

@Fact How do they separate a dude just giving a girl some money after sex with a dude paying a prostitute? Don’t make sense at all

@Fact Hehehehehe this is funny.

@Fact It makes sense. Employers must take care of safety of their employee, and must not incentivize self-harm. If you consider prostitution as self-harm then Swedish model becomes just a matter of standard workers right.

@Fact it's a good law. it protects the victims of this crime.

@Fact hear out my new startup idea- prostitute bounty hunter
