Not just in one part of the U.S., i'm talking about all of the U.S.
I think it should be the decision of the person to do what they want, and no one else.

No. If you can't even have sex without having to pay for it, you don't deserve to have sex at all.

Yea sure. Do it the way they do it in that one state. Legalize it, and regulate it. Much safer. People are gonna use the "services" of prostitues one way or another, and they are always gonna be there, might as well make it legal, and safe.

So long as some requirements are in place.....If the women are tested every week for STDs and general health, I don't see any problem with it. Of course, the *legal* hookers would always be more expensive....So illegal prostitution would still be a major problem.

Yes.  I would never use it, but I'm sure many other people would.  It would take prostitution off the streets where there are criminals and murderers and into the bedrooms that are much safer and protected.  It would be government regulated though.

You make these prostitutes sound like objects that can be rid of.

Well, I say yes. Legalize and monitor prostitution. Everyone wins.

While I agree with the sentiment we are talking about the real world. There are always going to be men willing to pay for sex and women who will have sex for money. I think it should be legalized simply for the safety of the women involved. The four prostitutes murdered in ipswich before christmas confirmed this for me.

And maybe the "customers" would have to get tested before every "session" so they don't have HIV/AIDS, STDs, ect.

Pimps, Child Prostitution, Enhances the overall demand for the service, There is a huge debate about health in the country (legalizing it hardly promotes that), Homicide, Drug trafficking & use, and more, but I'm tired.
