According to The Daily Beast. Hong Kong’s prostitution laws dictate that sex can only be sold by “one woman in one room”. Lawmakers say this cuts pimps and brothels out of the equation, effectively giving sex workers more control. However, sex workers say they put them in danger
Zi Teng, a Hong Kong sex workers rights group, say that these laws
“put sex workers in unstable positions where the law cannot be of service”, so
they are unable to seek help from police. They also say that sex workers should
be allowed to work together in order to reduce risks of abuse from customers.
They suggest that at the very least, they should be able to hire security
guards. Since this would violate the “one woman, one room” law, this would be a
criminal offense.
