Sweden is known for its blonde bombshells and stunning variety of beautiful women, but capital Stockholm falls behind some of the other major European cities when it comes to adult services available. In our complete guide to Sex in Stockholm, we take a sweeping look at the Stockholm sex trade, as well as strip clubs, sex shops and more. These ladies cover a range of budgets and tastes. As of late , we counted over 30 different escort websites, directories and boards with ads posted by courtesans or their respective agencies.
Unfortunately we cannot link to them, but it goes without saying… the websites are not hard to find. In , Sweden changed its prostitution laws effectively legalising the act of selling sex but criminalising buying it. The laws were designed to protect sex workers from conviction but also to clamp down on johns and pimps with the threat of up to six years in prison. This has made the traditional brothel a thing of the past unless reforms are introduced…which are unlikely.
On the surface, these laws have been successful in what the state attempted to do in reducing the number of prostitutes working in Sweden. Official figures suggest that the number of working women has reduced from around 3, twenty years ago to just Unofficially there is evidence to suggest that there are a lot more than that figure. Of this total, it is estimated that between women are working the Stockholm area. Many of these women work as independent escorts as opposed to taking to the streets.
There are plenty of Thai Massage parlours in Stockholm as well as spas that offer an authentic Swedish massage. Though neither offer full service, at least one in five of the Asian massage parlours in the city will provide you with a happy ending manual only. This is more likely in the suburbs than it is in Central Stockholm.
There has been a sharp rise in the number of temporary brothels that have been set-up using locations leased through the AirBnB site. Some temporary brothels exist via locations found on AirBnB.
