"Belgian Government Will Intervene In Cases Where Prostitutes Refuse Sexual Acts Too Often." That headline, at a website called The Publica, certainly caught my attention. A new law in Belgium, the website claims, will enable "pimps to punish" sex workers "if they refuse sex more than 10 times in a six-month period. The Belgian Parliament voted for the law on May 3, with 93 in favor, zero opposed, and 33 abstentions."
Others have taken up this story with similarly salacious and critical tones.
