German troops angered by prostitute ban
» Sex Workers
Since sex work is legal in Germany and there are even licensed brothels American soldiers station there are angry at the proposed criminalization of what is often their main sexual outlet. And it'll be a hard law to enforce.
“Where are we talking about?” asked Pfc. Marty Conyers of the 464th Replacement Detachment on Rhein-Main when asked if troops should be punished by one-year confinement and a dishonorable discharge if convicted for paying for sex. Conyers said the anti-prostitution law would be unfair to troops in Germany, because it is legal here.
