There is no legal or moral reason prostitution cant be legal.

For one a Woman is allowed to do what she wants with her body...AKA abortion.
So she is allowed to abort a fetus...but not collect funds for sex while conceiving the fetus she is allowed to legally abort lol

Its her body is it not?
So why not campaign to to allow a woman to be able to sell her body how she deems fit?
Its her body and she legally via the abortion bill to do what ever she wants to it.
And selling her body for sex as a viable source of income should be allowed period!!!

If you cry its wrong morally...in light of the fact woman are allowed to abort babies as fast as they can change panties cause it is there body....i will beat you down


So in short...Prostitution should be legal in every state abortion is..

Any society that would legalize mass murder of pre-born children really should not have a problem with prostitution. However, imo, two wrongs don't make a right.

I see only two problems with this. More divorces and More STDS. But I guess that would be the "customers" problem.

There is tremendous moral reasoning why it should be kept illegal, and society should shun those who partake in the act. The more partners the average individual has over their lifetime, the weaker our species becomes, because the potential for spreading pathogens increases. I'm not even going to mention how prostitution breaks up a good many families. The line of reasoning you present is merely naive at best, and downright criminal at worst. Think it through. Peace.

Avoiding the obvious abortion bait here (seriously cant we have a discussion without outright lies and propaganda like 'abort babies as fast as they can change their panties....poor, poor pathetic baiting there)....

you are right. Legalize it and regulate it. Its that simple. Look at Vegas. They do just fine.

It is kinda legal already.
Even though it might be illegal,i can open the paper right now and order me 2 girls at a time if I wanted.
I am all for legalization and see nothing wrong with it.
Hey after all...its legal for a lawyer and politicians to screw you for money so why not get some value out of our dollars for a change?

It's not legal, but you're correct that it can be easily had in the 21st century.

You don't think that weakening our species, and breaking up communities via increased divorce rates is wrong


Just bizarre, man.

based on your morals. Why exactly should your morals be the governing factor here? As for the weakening of the species, well, all one has to do is point you toward any of the number of places where it is legal and well regulated to prove you wrong there.

Go look up the definition of morality.

Your reasoning is incredibly short sighted. It's retarded.

I am not one for marriage so you might be asking the wrong person.
If someone can't keep it in their pants then maybe they shouldn't be married to begin with.

So prostitution is going to take the divorce rate higher than the roughly 55% its already at?

Come on now.

I don't think you quite grasp the situation here. Let me try and explain.

Can i safely assume that safety is a priority?
If it is, then we can look at the number of prostitutes that get abused in countries where its legal compared the ones where it is illegal.

Legalizing leads to protection. It is when a society admits that such activities exist and manages it humanely. Where prostitution is illegal, you get human trafficking, diseases and death.

The real option is to choose wether you admit it is happening, or pretending it doesn't.
Also, you can't blame the supplier for catering to the demands. Just like the trade of rare animal products, if the demand stops, the supply will too.

I agree -- all of the supposed objections (those not based on matters of consensual sexual morality, which can only be personally, not legally, regulated anyway) are actually issues of workers' rights that apply to anyone who sells their labor in a potentially risky market. Men work jobs where their lives and health are put in danger every day, but we don't make the jobs illegal on that basis. Because prostitution is largely a female profession, and because we can't think about sex without completely losing our collective mind, we perceive it as special or different when really all jobs involve exploitation and regulatory failures.

I tell you what, if this opens up jobs for the millions of Americans who have no job and can't get one I am all for it!! We have big problems is the United States with unemployment and homeless, and if this opens up jobs in which people are willing to work this way, why not??? No moral reasoning will make you disagree with how many jobs were lost in the world, and how many homeless are out there.

mr. holier-than-thou using a derogatory term?


There is nothing 'retarded' about the idea that I should not have to live by your morals. What is 'retarded' is the thought that YOUR idea of right and wrong is the only one.

Get over yourself.
