PROGRAMME
International congress for the abolition of prostitution: Stop Sexbuying
From 5th until 7th of December 2014 in munich,
Anton-Fingerle-Zentrum
Schlierseestr. 47.
Why this congress?
During our intensive analysis of prostitution and society and in our efforts to find solutions that looks to women’s interests, we in KOFRA have
- founded a working group
- organized and hosted information and discussion events
- begun networking on local, national and European level with organisations, groups and people who want the abolition of prostitution on the lines of the Swedish/Nordic model, the prohibition of the purchase of sex
Our view and our aim are based on the following analyses and perspectives:
- Prostitution is an obstacle to equality
The sexual use of a woman’s body for money lastingly prevents equal relationships between the sexes. The existence of prostitution creates a male awareness, that the sexual use of women is purchasable and permitted by society. An equal relationship between men and women is precluded here, boys and men do not learn to adequately communicate with women, to cooperate, to agree on shared desires. Their own sexual wishes dominate, are viewed as legitimate, taught early and may at any time and in any form be satisfied, for a few euros. This locks both women’s and men’s roles in society in the traditional, hierarchical patterns of dominance and submission, that we all believed to be overcome.
- Prostitution is violence against women
Women in prostitution experience the use of their bodies by unknown men between once and 20 to 30 times a day. Together with Sweden we view this reality as violence against women. An event offering information and raising awareness as regards the concrete situation of these women and the physical, psychological and mental consequences for them is absolutely necessary. Women who have succeeded in exiting prostitution are increasingly voicing their experiences. They report having to dissociate their feelings and reactions, having to function like a machine in order to go through the degradation and pains that they are subjected to by constant vaginal, anal and oral penetration. They report having learned this technique of dissociation through childhood violence. They hoped to finally gain control of the situation and thus power by repeating the trauma as an independent decision. The opposite then happens: the trauma is perpetuated by recurrent repetition.
In a society that denies women possibilities of jobs and satisfactory and adequately paid career choices that are compatible with their situations in life makes prostitution appear an easily accessible escape route: fast money when money is low, and the damages are denied.
The congress informs on the realities of prostitution, the high risks born by the women, the intense violence perpetrated by the punters. It counters the prostitution myths by reality and clarifies that the purchase of sex must not be legal.
