| has gloss | (noun) offering sexual intercourse for pay prostitution, harlotry, whoredom |
| has gloss | eng: In criminology, the research and analysis of prostitution falls within the topic of public order crime. The legal treatment of the social phenomenon is not equal, reflecting differing standards of morality as to the pursuit of pleasure, differing attitudes towards gender roles, and more general concerns with inequality, exploitation, and violence. The laws concerning prostitution vary considerably around the world. In some jurisdictions prostitution is illegal. In other places prostitution itself (exchanging sex for money) is legal, but most surrounding activities (such as soliciting in a public place, operating a brothel and other forms of pimping) are illegal, often making it very difficult to engage in prostitution without breaking any law. In in a few jurisdictions prostitution is legal and regulated. (see Legality of prostitution). |
