Sure it is. What's the big difference if I'm using my mouth to talk into a phone or suck a dick? or use my hands to type on a computer or give a hand job?
How sad that you really can't tell the difference. Think a man cannot tell the difference between the woman he hired to answer his phones -and the one he hired to suck his dick? Which one do you REALLY think he respects more?
Would you be able to tell the difference if it were your daughter? Would you tell HER there is no real difference and therefore she should be just as willing to sell her sexual services to any guy willing to part with a few bucks as she would be to answer someone's phones? If so -then I'm real glad you aren't my mother. My mother not only had FAR more respect for herself than that -she expected me too as well.
I get so tired of the moralizing. If it came down to starving and living in the street or turning tricks, I wouldn't even have to think about it, I know what I'd do. Anyone that wouldn't fight to survive shouldn't be passing on their genes. And you can tell your mom I said so.
Moralizing? Did you bother to read anything I've written on this subject? The fact that there are runaways, drug addicted, mentally ill and homeless women willing to sell their sexual services cannot EVER justify legalizing the act. I wouldn't encourage my daughter to turn to prostitution even if she were desperate. I'm sorry you don't realize that there are other FAR less risky options out there for a financially desperate woman. But there are. Not so oddly enough -men who are financially desperate are actually very unlikely to turn to prostitution as the answer to their problems. So why should we be encouraging women to do so when that decision is among the most likely to put her health and very life at risk -but she doesn't need to because there are other and superior answers to her financial situation? Do I understand why women make this decision anyway? Of course I do.
But does legalizing it make it less risky to THE most desperate of women? Not at all. These are not the women who will register with the state, not the women who will submit to regular health checks so the john can feel better about screwing a total stranger he cares nothing about anyway. So exactly how does legalizing it in any way help the mentally ill, drug addicted or homeless woman so desperate for a few bucks she is on a street corner willing to sell herself RIGHT NOW? It doesn't -legalization does nothing for these women and in no way reduces their ranks or helps them find another answer to their financial desperation. It will not reduce the ranks of those who were already taking a higher risk paying these very same women and are unwilling to pay more for the same service in a legal brothel. It will not suddenly mean there are no pimps with their stable of women they force to work for them and use violence and drug addiction as the means of control.
So who really benefits from legalization? Those paying for the services. It means they can openly buy the sexual services of a strange woman -and she will be one declared "clean" by the state. (Although there is no such thing as 100% guarantee of no STD or HIV transmission during a sex act.)
But legalization in NO way means the woman is somehow less desperate, more respected, less drug addicted, less homeless or in a less self destructive lifestyle, does it? Legalization only brings in another level of prostitution -women who would not sell their bodies when illegal but now will. And it brings in another level of players -men who would not buy the services when illegal, but now will when legal. But it in NO way reduces the ranks of -or improves the status and lives of the most desperate of women who turn to prostitution as the best means of supporting themselves in the first place. THESE women are not going to register with the state and these women are not going to submit to health checks so the state can reassure the buyers that the females are clean. And it isn't going to reduce the ranks of those who were already taking the risk with prostitutes and will not pay more for the same services in a state endorsed brothel.
Legalization only benefits those who aren't desperate at all -the buyers. And for misogynists, it only reaffirms their opinion that females are something to be bought and sold and not quite real human beings. Not something I'm real sympathetic with, sorry.
