A study by the IFDD Institute for the “Krone” on red lights revealed something surprising: Should the purchase of sexual services be banned?
It’s just one of nine slippery questions the IFDD institute put to 800 Austrians in June. The answer: 82 percent said no, only 10 percent are in favor of a ban on prostitution. Those under 30 (16%) and FPÖ voters (17%) are most likely to favor it.
When asked whether they themselves used sexual services, Mr. and Mrs. Austria evaded. 80 percent of the men never dared (officially) secretly go to the brothel, just like 98 percent of the women.
Interesting: Not a single woman interviewed admitted to paying money for sex. Which could also be due to the fact that 64 percent think women would find it easier to get free sex than men. While the latter are convinced with 82 percent, only 46 percent of the female respondents say so.
Women want something different!
Should there be brothels for women? Yes, say 35 percent of women, but also 33 percent of men. However, this shouldn’t look like a “man whorehouse”.
Women like a club with well-groomed men (27%), a kind of beauty salon (26%), the green voters want a cozy hotel (20%). Most agree that women are forced into prostitution (45%) and exploited (54%).
