 The Brazilian government maintains in the site of the Labor and Employment Ministry a list of working activities that exist in Brazil. The detailed list presents thousands of jobs and professions with advice on how to make the best to fulfill the requirements of the jobs.
Item 5198, "Sex Professional" is an example of the effort put in the task by the Lula administration's bureaucrats. They have pieced together all it's needed to make a successful career in prostitution. The information given on the site is a real primer for anyone man or woman interested in getting into the business of selling their bodies. It teaches step by step how to prepare, seduce, negotiate and then deliver the sexual goods. The free advice should be obligatory reading for anyone dreaming on becoming a prostitute. The content is very didactic with lots of practical hints like "seduce with affectionate nicknames" and "involve with perfume." When with the client the prostitute is advised to do strip tease, offer massage, wash the clothes of clients when dealing with garimpeiros (gold prospectors) and naturally enter into carnal intercourse. Under the heading Working Resources candidates to a prostitution position are warned they need a special wardrobe for the activity that is called batalha (battle or war) by the government's primer. The basic kit for the street warrior includes male and female condoms, water-based lubricant, cell phone, moist paper towels and toilet paper. They are also told to print their own business cards. The prostitution's primer is also a source of sound economic advice: the ladies (and gentlemen) of the night are told to put their money in a savings account and to make their monthly contributions into the Social Security fund in order to guarantee unemployment and retirement. benefits. The prostitute candidate is also warned to not get involved with colleagues in the work place. Those willing to sell themselves also learn from the government that one of their tasks is to be a companion to tourists and to be a escort in trips. They are also told to give good advice and offer a shoulder and a little tenderness to those clients in need of tender loving care. According to the Labor Ministry's instructions, the prostitution career is open to anyone 18 or older and the requirements in terms of schooling don't amount to too much. The average schooling for a Brazilian prostitute is between fourth and seven grades. The government also warns that prostitutes will not get the full potential of their career before two years of experience. Gabriela Leite, president of the Prostitution Brazilian Net, was one of the contributors to the Labor Ministry's document as an expert in the art of selling the body for sex. After 28 years working the streets, Leite says she doesn't understand why people are talking derisively about the government's primer. Says she, "Like any other profession ours has its own characteristics. The problem is the society's hypocrisy, which uses our work but is ashamed to recognize our profession. Being a prostitute is not a crime in Brazil, but being a gigolo is. In this case, the Brazilian penal code determines two to five years of jail time for those who induce others into prostitution. When the police arrest prostitutes in the streets they are generally charged with vagrancy.

You advocating the need for changes? Anyone who have read this blog enough knows that it contains a lot of nazi, hating, stupid slanderer calumniation smear comments about brazil and all brazilians. So go .
