International Whores' Day : ウィキペディア英語版 | International Whores' Day
International Sex Workers Day, or International Whores' Day, on June 2 of each year, honours sex workers and recognises their often exploited working conditions. The event commemorates the occupation of Église Saint-Nizier in Lyon by more than a hundred prostitutes on 2 June 1975 to draw attention to their situation. It has been celebrated annually since 1976. In German, it is known as ''Hurentag'' (Whore's Day). In Spanish-speaking countries, it is the ''Día Internacional de la Trabajadora Sexual'', the International Day of the Sex Worker. (The Spanish word "trabajadora" is feminine, recognizing that most sex workers are women.) == Background ==
In the 1970s, French police kept prostitutes under increasing pressure. The police reprisals〔 forced the women to work increasingly in secret. As a result, protection of prostitutes decreased and led to more violence against them. After two murders and the unwillingness of the government to improve the situation, sex workers in Lyon occupied the Saint-Nizier church in rue de Brest and went on strike. The police cleared the church after eight days. The event marks the starting point of an international movement of prostitutes for sex workers' rights.
