Spain’s Women Turn To Sex For Money
August 4th, 2012
(AlJazeera) – Spain’s women are turning to sex for money as their economy hemorrhages massively due to harsh austerity measures to pay for banker bailouts.
Spain’s government is desperately trying to reign in spending after accepting a 123 billion dollar package from the European Union in July. And this economic crisis is forcing more Spanish women to take up prostitution to make money. Authorities in some cities are clamping down on the sex trade. Al Jazeera’s Barnaby Phillips reports from Barcelona.
