BERLIN, Germany — Flashbulbs illuminate for a gay pornography superstar hawking DVDs as Julius Dreyer blithely threads his means through booths touting everything from dildos and depilatory cream to bookkeeping services (“Sex and Tax?”).
Getting involved in worldwide’s prominent trade program for “erotic lifestyles” are old cap for this young business person, who’s been in the xxx sector practically provided he is been a grown-up. But their most recent opportunity will be the a lot of controversial right here.
As Germany consistently debate the legalization of prostitution a decade ago, Dreyer was promising to really make it safer and lower exploitation. During 2009 he with his two brothers founded Kaufmich, a social networking site for gender staff.
They say it will probably improve the industry by producing a totally free marketplace for independent prostitutes.
“Our plans is always to see sex operate the same and fully accepted element of society,” Dreyer states. “We believe that a myriad of troubles develop from sex people becoming remote and evaluated [by people].”
Thin with clean, close-cropped tresses, Dreyer founded Germany’s most widely used hookup site, Poppen, before the guy switched 21.
However the popularity of their most recent site isn’t ensured. With cost-free intercourse programs for example Grindr and Tinder gaining approval and brick-and-mortar “swingers’ groups” almost conventional here, Kaufmich — which means “BuyMe” — may face an uphill battle.
