"Banning the purchase of sex increases cases of rape: evidence from Sweden"

"This paper leverages the timing of a ban on the purchase of sex to assess its impact on rape offenses. Relying on Swedish high-frequency data from 1997 to 2014, I find that the ban increases the number of rapes by around 44–62%."

"The increase reflects a boost in completed rapes both in the short- and long-run. However, it is not accompanied by a decrease in the number of pimps."

Just sounds a bad reflection on a society where r@pe is an alternative, s'all. Taking by force what is denied if sex-workers are banned. @olives
