As a society we are buying more sex than ever before. Adult sex
shops now take their place amongst retailers in the high street and
lap dancing clubs compete for an increased share of the leisure
economy; hotel chains offer sexually explicit films as part of
their standard service, the party selling of adult toys to women in
their homes has become a mainstream activity; and at the
traditional end of the sexual service economy, prostitution has
experienced new growth. Along with this has come new legal measures
and attempts to regulate the sexual leisure economy, and far more
comprehensive plans than ever before to regulate prostitution, in
particular in the form of the new Sex Offences Act. This book seeks
to address the range of issues and contemporary debates on the sex
industry, including the demand by customers who buy sex, the
policing of women who work in the street sex industry, and the
violence that pervades prostitution. It shows how these issues have
been addressed in policy terms, the problems that have emerged in
this, and how a social policy might be formulated to minimize harm
and enhance public understanding. Overall the book aims to provide
a critical perspective on prostitution policies and the legal chaos
and complexities that surround this.
