Prostitution. What's the Harm?

Description

A lively and thought-provoking documentary investigating the current state of prostitution in the UK and looking at young people's attitudes to the world's oldest profession. It is legal to buy sex in the UK, but there is a growing political movement to change that law. Reporter Billie JD Porter asks what the impact would be on those involved - the men who pay for sex, the women who sell it and the traffickers, brothel owners and pimps - and she travels to other European countries to see how they deal with it. She asks: What do young people really think about paying for sex? Do men and women feel differently about the issue - and could the most harmful aspects of prostitution be dealt with through better enforcement of existing laws?
