Prostitution in Turkey is legal and regulated. The secularization of Turkish society allowed prostitution to achieve legal status during the early 20th century. Known as "general houses" (genelevler) in the country, brothels must receive permits from the government to operate. In turn, the regulatory agencies issue identity cards to sex workers that give them rights to some free medical care and other social services.[1] However, many local governments now have a policy of not issuing new registrations, and in some cities, such as Ankara and Bursa, brothels have been demolished by court order.[citation needed]
According to the research of professor Donna M. Hughes the largest group of foreign women involved into prostitution in Turkey are Ukrainian sex-workers.[2][3]
By the early 1900s, the approximated number of registered prostitutes was 2,000.[4] Within this population, a study done in 1919-1920 concluded that sixty percent of these women were non-Muslim and forty percent were Muslim; however, this number did not account for the prostitutes who were working illegally.[4]
Throughout the years, an increasing amount of women began to resort to prostitution as a means of financial income. Many women who resorted to prostitution did so due to being single mothers, homelessness, poverty, and to afford childcare services.[4] While only registered and unmarried women over the age of eighteen can work in state-regulated brothels, those un-registered are forced to work outside the system.[5] Thus, non-registered women had to work in illegal brothels, as streetwalkers, and sell sexual services from their homes.[5]
