- W2223834360 abstract "This work provides an overview of the different types of female sex workers in Mexico City, and discusses the recent trend toward politicizing of female sex workers. The sex industry, traditionally known as prostitution, encompasses a variety of activities that are economically and socially hierarchical, and that may be clandestine, public, or semiofficial. The penal code in Mexico does not outlaw prostitution as such, but specifies procuring as an infraction, while the police regulations contain a category of offenses against morals and good customs, which is used to control prostitution. The laws have lent themselves to exploitation and mistreatment of prostitutes, who are also systematically exploited by their representatives. The stigma of prostitution has prevented political organization of sex industry workers. In Mexico, the AIDS epidemic directly affected prostitutes' lives and initiated their political awakening. In some AIDS-control campaigns, prostitution came to be spoken of as a means of earning a living rather than as a sin, vice, or destiny. AIDS control activities also gave some indication of preoccupation with the human rights of prostitutes. Efforts are underway to form a national organization of prostitutes that would seek to improve their working conditions and social status. To the extent that prostitutes reflect on their circumstances and organize to defend their basic rights, including recognition of their work, they redefine the symbolic terms of gender in which female sexuality is repressed and women are dichotomized as good women or prostitutes. Prostitution is a social institution reflecting the hierarchy of gender. Prostitution should be analyzed as a political problem and not just a personal or individual problem. It should also be studied as a problem of social relations, with attention to the demand side as well as the supply." @default.
