Reliable statistics on prostitution venues and customers are difficult enough to acquire in any country, as is the case with all illegal activity.

In China, statistics or social research on consensual sexual activity is only recently happening, certainly research is not permitted for illegal sexual commerce.

Any man, Chinese or Western, who has lived in both the West and China will confirm the greater availability of providers and establishments for prostitution in China. It's simply a fact, disturbing to some, unspoken by some, celebrated by some, but a fact nevertheless.
