[Chauvero]

Is Prostitution Legal in your Nation?
Yes.

If it is, is it regulated in any way?
We have colleges which teach prostitution and all of the finer skills that go with it, and all prostitutes (both male and female) must be licensed and charge only those fees as are set out by Parliament. Prostitution without a licence or valid certificate of clean health is punishable mainly by imprisonment. Controversially, all women who are unemployed for six months or more must register as prostitutes and make their services available if they wish to continue to draw unemployment benefits.

What is the government's stance on the issue?
It is well known that many government ministers use the services of prostitutes, so our government has no issue with it. Incidentally, we refer to prostitutes as Sex Operatives.

What are your citizens thoughts on the issue?
Most are happy with it.

Are there any major groups (Religions, Businesses, Political Parties, ect) that support it?
Access to Sex Operatives is often provided to employees as a perk by large companies. All but one of our registered political parties supports it.

Are there any major groups (Religions, Businesses, Political Parties, ect) that do not support it?
The Ornate Church of the Chauveran Higher Spiritasmus – which has around 1,000 members nationally – is opposed to prostitution.
The Green Party is also opposed to it.

Is it important to the economy in anyway?
There is a fee to register as a Sex Operative, so there would obviously be lost revenue for the government if prostitution did not exist. There have also been private studies which suggest that productivity within the average business would drop by up to 40% if workers were unable to access Sex Operatives due to increased tension and frustration.

Anything Else?
We believe that the work done by Sex Operatives is both noble and important, and as such anyone working as one is entitled to claim income tax relief (30% reduction for the first year, 75% reduction in the second year and total exemption from income tax thereafter). This is not only because we acknowledge the intimate and personal nature of sex work, but also because we believe it to be directly linked to our citizens' happiness – indeed, surveys of long-term single men have shown that those who never access Sex Operatives are generally twice as likely to develop clinical depression as a result of loneliness than those who do.

[Freemopia]

b]Is Prostitution Legal in your Nation?[/b] YES
If it is, is it regulated in any way? NO, except it is subject to minimum wage law like any other job, and it is a risky and physically laborious job so the minimum wage is at least $10/h probably more. Most prostitutes charge at least $1000 worth/5 min, or a prostitute may charge a lower price if they live with the john long-term (in many cases the john gives the prostitute 1/2 of the johns house, a car, plus other lavish items, in return for the prostitute to live with and have x with the john long term.) Government workers who participate in prostitution are banned from gov jobs.
If it is not legal, what does your nation do to the citizens that commit the crime?
What is the government's stance on the issue? The government funds an anti-prostitution campaign including TV and radio announcements on non-gov channels in ad time slots, and pamphlets sent to all inhabitants telling them that 99%+ of prostitutes don’t like the job, they do it out of desperation for $ or are slaves coerced or forced by their pimps to do it, plus std and pregnancy risks, demotes unprotected x and encourages sterilization, std tests...
What are your citizens thoughts on the issue? Most discourage prostitution.
Are there any major groups (Religions, Businesses, Political Parties, ect) that support it? The prostitution, porn, pimp, and brothel business support it. There are no other major groups that encourage it. Most Freemopians think it should be legal.
Are there any major groups (Religions, Businesses, Political Parties, ect) that do not support it? The majority of Freemopians discourage it and think it should be legal.
Is it important to the economy in anyway? NO. It’s bad for the economy. It’s a waste of time and resources, plus often leads to STDs and unwanted pregnancy. It is taxed as a lavish item, thus is taxed higher than non-lavish items.
Anything Else? Prostitution is not common in Freemopia, in large part because laws that protect individuals from mean pimps/abusers/kidnappers/slavers..., welfare, people have the right to arms to protect them self, finding descent jobs is not that hard because of tax cuts on survival product manufactures and import tariffs, and anti-prostitution campaign.
There are no age limits for anything and Freemopians have the right to self endanger and self injure them self.
Freemopia does not discriminate based on martial status and is not allowed to recognize the word marriage, this helps reduce prostitution compared to some other nations that give benefits to prostitutes and johns who buy a certain piece of paper.
