If it were made legal, probably it would go up for a while and the o all the way down again. There is somthing about humans that makes them want to do things that are against the law. Things they are not supposed to do. Don feed the monkey!!! they go ahead and feed it!! That sort of thing.

should prositution be legal?

i am going to be bad and go with the pros of prositution. (honestly i don't have a decided stand on the issue)

prostitution should not be a crime. Prostitutes are not committing an inherently harmful act. While the spread of disease and other detriments are possible in the practice of prostitution, criminalization is a sure way of exacerbating rather than addressing such effects. We saw this quite clearly in the time of alcohol prohibition in this country. ...what makes prostitution a 'victimless crime' in the sense that no one is necessarily harmed by it is that there are consenting adults involved.

morality of prostitution

why is it illegal to charge for what can be freely dispensed? sex work is no more moral or immoral than the chocolate or distilling industries.

Is selling ones body a free choice?

"we chose sex work after we did a lot of things we couldn't stand. Sex work is better. For me, sex work isn't my first choice of paying work. It just happens to be the best alternative available. It's better than being president of someone else's corporation. It's better than being a secretary. It is the most honest work i know of." chair of the european commission's expert group on trafficking in human beings in her article in the book global sex workers 1998

hiv/aids prevention would it reduce hiv / aids in the community?

for hiv/aids prevention to succeed, the conditions of risk have to change. The context - legal, social, economic - of sex work has to change, with repeal of criminal laws, access to visas and work permits, freedom of movement and association, and occupational safety and health regulations, to reduce the imposition of risk from above. Until then, it will be heroic, strong individuals that can insist on safe behaviours, leaving those who are less heroic, those who are more timid and afraid, to suffer the consequences of the context of risk.

would it reduce human trafficking

criminalizing the sex industry creates ideal conditions for rampant exploitation and abuse of sex workers...[i]t is believed that trafficking in women, coercion and exploitation can only be stopped if the existence of prostitution is recognized and the legal and social rights of prostitutes are guaranteed.

prostitution & violence

decriminalization would better protect people in the sex industry from violence and abuse. ...police cannot and do not simultaneously seek to arrest prostitutes and protect them from violence.... Indeed, women describe being told, 'what did you expect?' by police officers who refused to investigate acts of violence perpetrated against women whom they knew engaged in prostitution. The consequences of such attitudes are tragic: gary ridgway said that he killed prostitutes because he knew he would not be held accountable. The tragedy is that he was right - he confessed to the murders of 48 women, committed over nearly twenty years. That is truly criminal.

prostitution as a legitimate business

sex work is legitimate work and problems within the industry are not inherent in the work itself. It is vulnerability, not sex work, which creates victims. Sex workers should enjoy the same labour rights as other workers and the same human rights as other people

prostitution as a career option

Prostitution is not merely an exchange of sexual favors; it is a financial exchange. At this point, individualist feminists rise to defend the free market as well as a woman's self-ownership. This is expressed by the question: 'Prostitution is a combination of sex and the free market. Which one are you against?'

Feminists of all stripes should speak with one voice to demand the safety of these women by granting them the same protection as any other woman can expect. Only decriminalization can provide this

***i posted this in religion by accident the first time. Sorry!!!

poster, my answer to you is that prostitution should be legalized especially here in states, well up countries have it legalized,Germany, Holland,Red Light District, have u heard of it. But l disagree wen you say that it leads to veneral diseases and stuff.That is a complete misrepresentation because wen u do whores they dont let you kiss them and you also dont go down on them and especially you must use a condom wen u r sexing them(must l add, most off them got the condoms already), does all this look like a recipe for disease?

Thanks. I just checked it out. The health license is what they have to do in las vegas. Have you ever heard of the Bunny Ranch, if you want a laugh search youtube for it. It is an upscale prostitute ranch in nevada.

some time recently i'd stumbled on this web page, and some American girls experiences in Vegas.

American Girls Are Easy

Interesting coz it's a personal view and written by lay people, not professional journalists.

Freedom comes with responsibility, so if we gonna legalize it...which we are way behiond already there should be standards maintained...like rates, tax and working hours .

Default its already 'legal' - 09-21-2008, 07:51 AM

never heard of anyone convicted of prostitution in Kenya, maybe loitering etc. Men have paid for s.ex thousands of years n they'll always do so, directly or indirectly. only that prostitutes r frank about it. Kenya watu wanasema uzuri wa mwanaume ni? ukubwa wa wallet. diseases? easier to get an STD from trusted friend than from pro cos no pro will accept s.ex bila condom. same to any discerning john.

Prostitution should be legalized. They can acquire licenses hence the government can collect revenue to help in paying the bloated budget hence saving the common mwanainchi.
Since it will be legal,sex workers will need to get checked for STDs,HIV and AIDS every two weeks. They will be educated hence creating jobs for teacher and those who do the testing.
It's human nature that people tend to do wrong things intentionally to see how far the can get without being caught or reprimanded. So if it's legalized, less people will be visiting brothels and other whore houses.
Since there will be competition among the flesh peddlers, they will have to raise their standards hence no vichochoro whore houses.
