What do you think about prostitution? Should it be legal?

I think it should be, but with some restrictions. Workers should have to pass frequent medical exams to prevent the spread of STDs, and condom use should be mandatory. your thoughts?

Yes, it should be legal. Keeping it illegal only increases crime.

Yeah. It would also be good because the prostitues could go to the law for help if they got into some sort of danger. They can't right now

They should make brothels in every city, to take it off the streets. No pimps, no beatings, they're happy, we're happy.

Well, murder is immoral because someone is harmed, don't you agree?

But prostitution can't really hurt anyone if it's legalized and regulated.

THe should have really, really strict rules on it if they want to make it legal. The last thing we need is an STD epidemic.

Prostitutes have no self respect for themselves, they are pest and they spread diseases and they are dirty, I dont know why women would wanna give themsleves like that just for money. Yes they have to make a living but still its just not right. But thats just me, for those who think its okay you are nothing more than pervs who think with your dicks instead of your head and think of getting laid all **** day and do nothing for our society and probably make it worser than it is before. But thats just me. My opinion.

No.  No reason to degrade society and spread diseases.  I mean, in most poor and failing socities, isn't prostitution rampant?  It's usually not something good.

I think it tends to be highly exploitative of women . . . and so I don't think legalizing it is the greatest idea. I'm not convinced that the U.S. could successfully regulate a prostitution industry, either nationwide or on a state-by-state basis.

If it was regulated, the rate of diseases and crime would decrease. In countries you're talking about, prostituation isn't in any way regulated.

I believe prostitution and marijuana are illegal because the government wouldn't know how to tax it.  Think about it, anybody can grow and sell weed and anybody can prostitute theirselves.  The government wouldn't know how to control this.  And everybody knows the government wants control especially if what they're controlling generates money.  The internet was once free, but you guess it, the government took over, not it's not free.

But that's not the direction the United States society should be heading.  It shouldn't be that women who are poor, have to start having sex with a bunch of men just to get food on their plate.  That shouldn't be a goal for our country.  We should be trying to improve our ways of life, not have people degrade themselves to survive.

How can anyone get turned on when you are paying money?  I mean, how can you?  I just don't get it.  The chick is not getting all up on you because she likes you.  She actually probably more than likely detests her job and customers.

Attraction is much more than a transaction, and I've always wondered how anyone can get turned on with the knowledge of why she is there.....MONEY!

Morality aside, I think it should be legalised, but brothels only.  That way, pimps are taken out of the picture.  It also forces the police to protect prostitutes, male or female.

Aye, I agree with that. But guess what's going to go on an even BIGGER rampage if that happens...

EDIT: Also, I think part of the fun in prostitution is that you're not supposed to do it.

You're not? :|  Err, no, no, bangin' hookers iz bad, yo.  Although I strongly doubt that disease would be an issue, and in fact it would probably be reduced. I live in Canada, land of the red tape, and people in the U.S. will sue over a chipped dime so you can bet your ass that proper protection would be the letter of the law of legalised hookin' in North America.

Paying someone to have sex is illegal, unless, of course, you intend to film it and sell the tapes as porn.  Then its perfectly legal.  Explain that one to me.

If both participants are willing i see nothing wrong with it.  What's the difference between taking a girl out to a couple of dinners and a few flowers and paying the same amount of money up front?

The only difference between paying a prostitute for sex and having sex the legitimate way is that the prostitute is cheaper!

I'd like to say, your opinion sucks. You might not think with your balls, but it's obvious you don't think with your brains either.

I would say without prostitution, rape cases will increase. Think about it, without a legal way for sexual predators to satisfy themselves, who do you think they will go after? Don't go all high and mighty and just condemn them without thinking, if it's not for us and our little friend down there, would prostitution even exist?
