There are just so many things wrong with that sentence.

Yes, it should be legalized. Why?

  • A nice revenue stream that will in turn be taxed
  • Regulation will cause a decrease in prostitute-transmitted STDs
  • A higher quality of life for prostitutes
  • Will allow more attention to be paid to street walkers, eliminating pimps and illegal operations
There is the problem with child prostitutes/sexual slavery, the only downside.

I have a question about the definition of prostitution: If you pay someone for sex directly then it's obviously prostitution, but what if you go out to dinner or something and you pay for all of it, then afterwards have sex?  You didn't pay the woman directly but you bought her dinner, which is sort of like giving her money, right?

It's a loophole.  Escort services do that.  You call an escort, and basically pay them to appear with you, and hangout with you.  If you end up having sex, money has nothing to do with itSmile.

Though they won't always have sex with you, I know of a guy who paid $500 for some girl to come to his house and "watch a movie" for 2 hours.  They ended up watching a movie.

I think it should be legal on the simple basis of 'if someone wants to have sex and pay the other person for their troubles, what buisness is it of anyone elses?!' - Sometimes wish I lived in the dark ages where people foraged for their foods, there were no laws, there were no social expectations or categorys, and none of this modern world bullsh*t.

He probably did get it from DaVinci Code. I fictional book by the way, but that's another story.

And quite honestly, while I don't agree with it...who are we to tell a person what to do with their bodies?  I actually liked/agreed with DA's post.

Deep thought:
If two people have sex, and one gets paid for it, it's illegal.
If two people have sex, and they both get paid, and you film it, it's legal.


Haha, even better jheft is in UK the legal age of consent is 16, yet porn is 18, so we can have sex at 16, but we cant watch it until were 18, i had to have sex with my eyes closed for the first 2 years incase SWAT came through my window Smile.


Should prostitution be legal?

Well, lets look at some other factors most havent included.

so far there are 2 things that have been trying to legalise or been debated about

weed

and prostitution.

According to many legalising weed will lower the amount who do it because it is legal, ergo logically if we legalise prostitution, there will be less of it.

Of course that works on the assumption that the above statement is indeed true.

Prostitutes dont account for hardly any STD's
As for drugs, thats a tad stereotypical, only prossies do drugs? come off it, lets face it theyre not contributing to crime, the ones who are, are the rivalry pimps and guards and big drug lords all competing for money and hookers.

If prostitution were legalised and we had special housing (like massage parlours) etc where we had proper bouncers, there wouldnt be a problem.

Both customer and woman could be STD checked and controlled, and even better, it can be taxxed.

Lets face it, sex sells, so why not tax the hell out of it for the needy ugly freaks who cant get with someone for free.


Im all for legalising it as long as its done in a business fashion like sheepman said, it would actually drive all the other prossies off the streets, they could work in safer environments and get rehab too etc etc.

sure it has moral problems, but if she is consenting (like in porn as jheft says) then why is it any different?

Seriously most hangups on prostitution is old fashioned, biased, hypocritical, and quite frankly, ignorant.

One guy here admit to not watching porn, thats basically prostitution, it IS prostitution, only both are getting paid.

why you little!

*wrings fists*

haha, but you know what i meant, sure some prossies are full of STD's but quite frankly the whole "ah prossy, STD!" is a tad overexxagerared.

At the end of the day no ones making anyone do it, legalising it will simply make money and make it safer.

And get rid of all them damn surbian pimps.

I'd never bang a prostitute, but I don't think it should be illegal.  Then again, I don't think a lot of stuff should be illegal.  People are gonna do the s*** anyway.

You're obviously thinking streetwaler material...
there are alot better options than picking up a crack wh#re to satisfy your needs.
when I think prostitution I think vegas and reno....the big rings that the wealthy indulge in....

not common streetwalkers that operate in open air drug markets...LOL...No thanks!


If prostitution were legal nationwide, there would be a lot more of the streetwalers than the high class whores of vegas IMO

Not if it were taxed and regulated like it is in nevada. streetwalkers are still prohibited in vegas....you must work out of a brothel or callout service. street walkers are still arrested in nevada.

I agree if they just legalized without regulating...then the issues you listed above would more than likely happen...but hey...its happening now anyways...the threat of arrest has not proven to be much of a deterrent.


Yes and regulated brothels will cut down on the street walker trad.

I have the misfortion of having a former friend (we are still occasionally in touch), who has

1) been a prostitute for damn, on and off 13.. 14 years

2) has ? maybe is right now maybe isn't, a heroine addict for almost as long (was an alcholic, bulimic and anorexic 1st, and then moved on)

She started in the high class escort trade in Manhatten 1st, the $ 400 an hour up type sevice girl.

See once you get rank, nasty and junked, you can't work in those types of places (not the good ones), it is more "self regulated", no one is going to pay $400 for a piece of junked out garbage, and that is exactly what she is/was.

She fell all the way down to corner hooker in Atlantic City. $10 blow jobs and stuff. But really she is one of those hang around the tables, and bars hoping for like all weekend customer, that would buy her shinny things + all the junk she would need. Or better yet a long term older/ elderly patron who would keep her longer.

If there was a regulated Brothel in Atlantic City, the demand for her services whould wann, by a significant margin.

Nobody (few people ) would choose her over a known clean and tested lady in a nice place of pleasure.

Now she would suffer more, consequently with the lack of quality customers, but that is for the better, IMO.


Not that I am at all fond of prostitution, I feel that a regulated industry, is preferable, to those hidding in the shadows.

Better for disease control, better for the John's, and better  for those ladies who want to go the extra step after stripping.

It should be legal. I've always thought of bringing a girl on a first date to the movies/dinner or something like that as similar to prostition. Think about it.

First of all there are the large number of girls that will just sleep with you because they're attracted to you...fine, nothing wrong with that (unless you are spreading diseases). Then, theres the women who look down at the ones I just described and say that they have to be taken out a few times before they will sleep with a guy. WTF is that? Lets agree that if you're going to let me take you out on 2 dates that your attracted to me and probably enough to have sex with me...I just haven't "earned" it yet.  Now I have to go and spend $80 on dinner and $20 on a movie and then you'll start to think about hitting the sack? F that....I might as well just give you the $100 bucks, nail you and send you on your way you hooker.

Trust me, any girl I've ever been with knew she wanted to sleep with me when we met. Some of them just waited until they got more out of me than others. Might as well be a prostitute!

See I am really weird, because I totally agree with you.

But, I am one of those tit for tat girls. I usually go dutch, or you get this I'll get that.

Because it does feel to me like exactly what you expressed, prostitution.

A man paying for a chance at me. We are both adults, we both are interested in the same thing, presumably.

If I am on the fence about someone, all the more reason to split the cost of our outings. It is not the quality of their wallet that I am interested in finding out more about, it is the quality of the person.

Money has never been an indicator of quality, money is not bad but it is never why I am out to dinner or dating someone.

But I am in the minority of females when it comes to everything i just stated.

Do you know what is f*cked up.

WHen they uncover 3 prostitutes dead bodies in a ditch in AC, all unclaimed and it is all over the news. And you have to listen real closely to the descriptions of the bodies found, and wonder if you should contact their authorities, because your not sure if one of them was your friend.

That was last year for me I believe, or 2 years ago, not sure.

ANd yeah it's a volume bussiness in more ways than one, bahdumpda, cha

First off it takes more than a dinner and some drinks to get my goodies. I think this is why I date a lot but it does not go beyond 2-3 times then it dies out.


I kinda agree with thehardway..
I do attempt to pay for stuff or get a round of drinks or something. ESPECIALLY when I know nothing aint gonna happen. I can get my own stuff and it is only fair.

If it is obvious all my date wants is some sex, I will let him pay for everything just because he is the idiot. Let's face it is a game and it sux. Males and females have advantages and disadvantages.

shXt sorry for my train of thought and my major typos (more thanusual) I think I am getting a migraine...Smile
