Prostitution itself (exchanging sex for money) in Brazil is legal, as there are no laws forbidding adult prostitution, but it is illegal to operate a brothel or to employ prostitutes in any other way.〔(Gabriela Silva Leite ), PBS Online NewsHour, 13 July 2003〕 ==Extent== Recent reliable estimates on the total number of prostitutes are not available. Child and teenage prostitution in Brazil is widespread and a serious problem. Brazil is considered to have the worst levels of child sex trafficking after Thailand with an estimated 250,000 children involved.〔(2009 Human Rights Report: Brazil ). State.gov (2010-03-11). Retrieved on 2011-05-09.〕〔 〕 The phenomenon is closely related with high levels of poverty and inequality in some areas of the country. According to the recently released Protection Project report, various official sources agree that from 250,000 to 500,000 children live as child prostitutes. The government of Brazil is working stringently to clamp down on child prostitution. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Prostitution in Brazil」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
