Conservative voices in Germany, too, calling to let brothels reopen during the 2nd wave of the pandemic: Because #prostitution is a hostage situation and we are offering nothing to women except to "kindly let them fuck to survive" as @HuschkeMau put it. https://www.bild.de/bild-plus/politik/inland/politik-inland/erster-cdu-politiker-fordert-macht-die-bordelle-wieder-auf-73957980,view=conversionToLogin.bild.html###wt_ref=https%3A%2F%2Fl.instagram.com%2F&wt_t=1605611903280
Also sick of the choice of image: Women's legs in high heels. Women are worried, desperate, some homeless and hungry and we still sexualize them. And it's not just Bild Zeitung which is cheap papers, all news outlets do this all the time! Even when women are raped or murdered.
My suggestion: When talking about #prostitution media outlets should stop using images of women's legs, breasts, and butts and instead show sex buyers! Men are the reason the trade exists, women are just trying to survive. Real pictures by @BettinaFlitner: http://www.bettinaflitner.de/freier.html?&L=%3Fbout.htmlenties%2Findex.php
The photos above and below are of real German #sexbuyers photographed and interviewed in the "Johns" series by @BettinaFlitner. They agreed to have their image and words public, so here is the translation of what they had to say to the question: "Why do you buy sex"?
Christian (23), businessman, German sex buyer: "Often [non-prostituted] women are a pain in the ass. They stress me out. Paying for it has got something though. Spraying my cum in her face costs 50€ extra. Now that's power. Whatever you want, you can do with the woman."

Dung (28), chef in training, German sex buyer: "Dating is always stressful. My type? Absolutely no Asians. There's gotta be chemistry, so she enjoys it as well. But sometimes the women keep looking at the clock. That's a real buzz kill."
Günther (55), innkeeper, German sex buyer: "I don't like it when she is really professional. Those who only do it part-time, just offer better performance. Yesterday one said to me: 'That was the best sex of my life.' 50 bucks. That's when the price-performance ratio is correct."
Ingo (43), tax consultant, German sex buyer: "Out there I'm too shy to approach someone. Twice I fell in love with a woman at the brothel. You get this good samaritan effect and want to help get her out of there. Never again. Well... for now I just keep seeing one and the same."
Iwan (65), car mechanic, German sex buyer: "Usually I gotta take a woman to dinner twice [before I get sex]. Costs me 100€. [Paying for it] means getting it instantly. You get used to it. The Columbian last week was really horny. But suddenly she disappeared. Too bad."

Joachim (58), engineer, German sex buyer: "If you keep going to the club, regular women won't satisfy you no more. Those bodies! My daughter is 26, so I make sure the girl is at least 27. A lot of the women have pimps, I've seen that with my own eyes."
Kai (49), banker, German sex buyer: "Women such as these, I would never get out there. Here I can push the boundaries if I want to. Anal, for example, costs 100€ extra. I've been seeing the same one for the last three years."
Ralf (28), programmer, German sex buyer: "My first time at the brothel I was 17. The gals are smart, there is no prattle here. Was in a relationship for four years, but the girlfriend always finds out. Now I'm running an internet platform to suggest alibis for other johns."
This is what the men are saying to a woman, a photographer/journalist, knowing it will be public to the world! Can you imagine what needs to happen that they'd be too ashamed to tell? And people tell me that john forums don't represent anything meaningful: https://dieunsichtbarenmaenner.wordpress.com/menu/
