-In the 1860s, the British government enacted some so-called Contagious Diseases Acts that were aimed at a repressive control of prostitutes deemed by many a violation of human rights. Since the liberal-minded National Association for the Repeal of the Contagious Diseases Act did not allow women among their ranks, Josephine Butler quickly founded  the Ladies National Association for the Repeal of the Contagious Diseases Acts. Both organizations were vigorously supported by the liberal public, since the Acts were seen as violating basic human rights. After a struggle of 16 years, the Acts were repealed.

 At the beginning and in the course of the 20th century, the legal prostitution regimes were softened and prostitutes gained some legal equality.
 On the other hand, a different conception arose about what was to be understood as abolitionism in this context. Some feminists argued that prostitution itself had to be abolished.
