Brazil (Portuguese: Brasil), [1], is the largest country in South America and fifth largest in the world. Famous for its football (soccer) tradition and its annual Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Recife and Olinda. It is a country of great diversity, from the bustling urban mosaic of São Paulo to the infinite cultural energy of Pernambuco and Bahia, the wilderness of the Amazon rainforest and world-class landmarks such as the Iguaçu Falls, there is plenty to see and to do in Brazil.

Sex Scene and Prostitution

Prostitution itself (exchanging sex for money) in Brazil is legal, as there are no laws forbidding adult prostitution. However, it is illegal to operate a brothel or to profit from the prostitution of others. This creates a semi-legal environment where independent sex workers operate legally but organized brothels are technically prohibited.

Brazil has one of the largest and most visible sex industries in South America. Sex work exists in many forms including street prostitution, escort services, nightclub freelancers, erotic massage parlors and independent escorts commonly known in Portuguese as garotas de programa.

Sex tourism is present throughout the country but is particularly visible in coastal resort areas in the Northeast and in major tourist destinations such as Rio de Janeiro, Fortaleza, Salvador and Recife. Nightlife districts in these cities attract both local customers and foreign visitors. One of the most well-known formats in the Americas is the combination of sauna, bar, and rooms in Brazil.

Reliable modern estimates of the number of prostitutes are difficult to obtain, but older government and academic studies suggested that Brazil may have close to 1 million sex workers. In 2002 the Brazilian Ministry of Labor officially recognized "sex worker" as a profession, which allows independent workers to contribute to social security and retirement programs.

Brazil is also well known internationally for its large transgender sex industry. Cities such as Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo are frequently mentioned in discussions about Top 10 Destinations for Transgender Sex Tourism because of the highly visible transgender nightlife scene and large number of transgender escorts and street workers.

Prostitutes operate in many environments including streets, beaches, bars, nightclubs, highways and tourist districts. Working conditions vary greatly depending on location and economic conditions.

Health risks remain a concern within the sex industry. Some workers may offer bareback services, which increases the risk of STD transmission including HIV. Condom use is strongly recommended when engaging with sex workers.

Brazil Escorts and Escort Services

Independent escort, operate throughout Brazil and are commonly advertised online or through nightlife venues. Escort services are widely available in major cities such as Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Fortaleza and Salvador.

If you are in to the BDSM or domme, note that Latin America's infrastructure for kink is extremely patchy. Brazil has dommes, but lacks the equipped dungeons found in Europe. Bring your own handcuffs or restraints if you intend to book local specialized services. Vagueness in booking gets you a vanilla hour with a token paddle. Prices vary significantly depending on the city, the appearance of the escort and whether the meeting is arranged privately or through nightlife venues. Encounters may range from around R$300 to R$1500 or more for higher-end escorts in major tourist cities, with premium and overnight bookings pushing much higher during peak seasons like Carnaval.

South
Is a land of valleys and pampas where a strong gaucho culture (shared with Uruguay and Argentina) meets European influences.

Street Hookers

Street prostitution is common in most large Brazilian cities, particularly in nightlife districts, beachfront areas and busy urban roads. Street workers may operate independently or circulate between bars and nightclubs looking for horny clients.

Sex prices vary widely depending on the city and neighborhood, but short encounters may start around R$50 to R$250 for street workers, with higher prices in tourist districts.

Street encounters can carry higher risks of robbery, scams or violence compared with meeting escorts through established venues or online escort listings.

Transsexuals and Shemales

Brazil has one of the largest transgender sex industries in the world. Transgender sex workers are highly visible in cities such as Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Salvador and Fortaleza. Because of this large and visible scene, Brazil is often mentioned in lists such as Top 10 Destinations for Transgender Sex Tourism.

Transgender workers operate both as escorts and as street workers, particularly in major nightlife districts and along busy urban avenues during late evening hours. Many also advertise independently through online escort platforms and social media.

Sex shops and nightlife districts in major Brazilian cities commonly sell condoms and poppers, which are widely associated with the gay club and transgender nightlife scene.

Transgender Escorts

Transgender escorts in Brazil often charge between R$300 and R$800 depending on the city and the appearance of the worker. High-end escorts in major tourist cities may charge significantly more.

As in other areas of the sex industry, travellers should be aware of health risks. Some trans-sex workers may offer bareback services, which increases the risk of STD infections including HIV. Condom should always be used.

Gay & Lesbian

Due to its high degree of acceptance and tolerance, gay travel is increasingly popular. Brazil hosted the first gay ball in America in 1754! Nowadays the main lesbian and gay destinations are Rio, which was elected the world's sexiest destination twice, São Paulo, which has the world's largest Pride Parade, Florianópolis, which is the hippest gay hangout and Recife which is attracting more and more lesbian and gay tourists looking for fun and sun.

Brazil is open to LGBT tourists. São Paulo boasts the biggest LGBT Pride parade in the world, and most major cities will have gay scenes. However, be aware that homophobia is widespread in Brazilian society, and Brazil is not the sexual haven that many foreigners perceive it to be. Couples that in any way don't conform to traditional heterosexual expectations should expect to be open to some verbal harassment and stares if displaying affection in the streets, though several neighborhoods of many of the major cities are very welcoming of the LGBT population, and LGBT-oriented bars and clubs are common. It is best to gather information from locals as to what areas are more conservative and what areas are more progressive.

Stay safe

By law, everyone must carry a photo ID at all times. For a foreigner, this means your passport. However, the police will mostly be pragmatic and accept a plastified color photocopy.

Even the most patriotic Brazilian would say that the greatest problem the country faces is crime. Brazil is one of the most criminalised countries of the world, therefore the crime rate is high, even for a developing nation. Armed bandits have more recently been attacking schools, hotels and even innocent people in the streets. While in recent years, the overall crime levels are steadily decreasing, Brazil continues to have moderately high crime rates in various aspects, even with a moderate homicide rate (about 28 per 100,000 people). Of significant concern is that policemen may not always provide the best quality of assistance and even be more dangerous than the criminals itself. Lack of man power, low wages and inappropriate training contribute to a lack of professionalism.

The best thing to do is to not act like a tourist, and do not display items of extreme wealth such as laptops, jewelry, etc. Also avoid carrying large amounts of money with you.

Although Brazil is widely known as a country where sex is freely available, it is sometimes misunderstood regarding HIV. Brazil has one of the best HIV prevention programs and consequently, a very low infection rate compared with most countries. Condoms are highly encouraged by governmental campaigns during carnival, and distributed for free by local public medical departments.

In 2003, it was estimated that about 6% of Brazilian prostitutes were infected with HIV. Gabriela Silva Leite, the executive director of Prostitution Civil Rights, says that because of information campaigns, condom use among prostitutes is high.

The Brazilian government turned down $40 million in U.S. anti-HIV/AIDS funding in 2005, because the U.S. government required all recipients to sign an anti-prostitution pledge. The Brazilian anti-AIDS program employs prostitutes to hand out information and free condoms; Brazil's AIDS commissioner Pedro Chequer was quoted as saying "Sex workers are part of implementing our AIDS policy and deciding how to promote it. They are our partners. How could we ask prostitutes to take a position against themselves?" A Washington Post article stated that the Brazilian anti-AIDS program is considered by the United Nations to be the most successful in the developing world.
