被禁止的性行为与性暴力

卖淫: 女性卖淫: 电子虚拟卖淫

互联网卖淫 1

互联网已经为卖淫交易开辟了一个新途径。通过网络摄像头，即通过直接从一地到另一地传送图像的数码互联网“网络摄像”，性服务现在能够得以超越空间距离。在此重申一遍，在妓女与主顾之间并不存在直接的身体接触。他能够看见和听见她在做什么，但是他不可能触及到她。然而，她能提供性服务，而他能付钱给她。在那个时候，就存在着不同的互联网卖淫(internet prostitution)方式。最通常的情形如下：

其中一些这种照片、影片、录像和摄影由个人所制作，一些则由大公司所完成。一些网站甚至提供由喜欢露体的或正寻找性伴的非专业（业余）人员制作的免费图片或摄像。事实上，其它所有的性刺激材料只对预付的信用卡主顾开放，他们必须证明其成人身份。

这种规则重要的例外情形是在任何年龄，包括十几岁的青少年，私下里个人之间的网络摄影视屏连接。其中一些人利用这样的互联网连接相互观看脱衣露体或手淫，不过，他们当然并不会为此而相互支付任何费用，因而它与卖淫无关。他们的行为是否合法，这得依不同的国家而定。不过，如果法律把“儿童”定义为“小于18周岁的任何人”，并禁止传播和拥有“儿童色情材料”，那么，至少这些十几岁的青少年违法了这个法律。当这些十几岁的青少年大概还没有意识到的时候，他们因而同时成为犯罪者和受害者

Internet Prostitution 1

The internet has opened up new opportunities for the business of prostitution. The sexual service can now be provided over long distances by web cams, i.e. digital “web cameras” that transmit images through the internet directly from one place to another. Here again, there is no direct body contact between prostitute and customer: He can see and hear what she does, but he cannot touch her. Nevertheless, she can provide sexual services, and he can pay her. At this time, there are different forms of internet prostitution. The most common are these:

1. Sexually explicit still photos
2. Pre-recorded films and videos
3. Webcams without the possibility of interaction
4. Interactive webcams

Some of these are produced by private individuals and some by large companies. Some web sites even offer free pictures or videos made by non-professionals (amateurs) who enjoy exposing themselves or are looking for partners. Virtually all other sexually stimulating materials are available only to pre-paying credit card customers who must prove that they are adults.
An important exception to this rule is the personal webcam connection between private individuals of any age, including teenagers. Some of these use such connections to watch each other strip or masturbate, but, of course, they do not charge each other any fees for it, and thus it has nothing to do with prostitution. Whether their actions are otherwise legal depends on their different countries. However, at least the teenagers are in violation of laws that define a “child” as “anyone under the age of 18” and prohibit the transmission and possession of “child pornography”. While they are probably not aware of it, these teenagers thus become perpetrators and victims at the same time.
