Prostitution in Argentina
- Prostitution in Argentina
Prostitution is illegal in Argentina but is only prosecuted at the behest of a judge [http://www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/hrrpt/2005/61713.htm] Argentine Prostitutes are, in fact, very expensive. Several studies show prostitution rates in Argentina to be the fifth highest among major countries. (This may be true relative to the cost of living in Argentina, but in absolute terms prostitutes earn far less in Argentina than in any European or North American country.)
