This year, maiz once again hosted a city tour "On the trail of sex work in Linz" on June 2, International Whores' Day. This was followed by a discussion entitled "Whores and Other Feminists".
The neo-abolitionist approach defines prostitution as sexual exploitation. This is how it is represented by the Coalition Against Trafficking in Women (CATW). And further, as an act of victimization of all women and a violation of human rights - prostitution is paid rape and a pathological outgrowth of patriarchy. The women in sex work were therefore not acting voluntarily. Prostitution must therefore be abolished.
