Option 4

 * Article title: Decriminalization of Sex Work

Option 5

 * Article title: Cuba, under the Tourism section.
 * Article Evaluation: This page does not really talk about the sex work and sex toursim. I would like to add how prostitution is still prominent in modern Cuba, and sex work is still very much entangled in tourism and the economy of the country, yet sex workers are ignored and deemed as disposable beings.
