Should Prostitution Be Legal In America?

[OnePercenter]

So, why is pornography legal (for the "actors") because it is still sex for money AND it is filmed?

I'll bet you I know why. It's definitely got to do with taxes. You know how our greedy monstrosity money-eating machine government operates? They probably do not want prostitution to be legal because they would have a difficult time taxing it.

It empowers women to make decisions. which is not a GOP directive.

Limiting prostitution to legally licensed brothels (like Nevada) would remove the tax collection question.

Louie the Lip says he wants to see white peoples blood flowing in the street and he's on national TV. I suppose he was being misrepresented him while he speaks. Get real, Me Oaf.

Though I don't believe in him, anyone who has ever listened to Louis Farrakhan speak in full context knows that he is not the man that the American press makes him out to be. He is a perfect example of how the press can misrepresent the truth.

Peace,

How would you do that? Would you arrest women who were prostitutes and didn't work in a brothel?

 

[AmericanFirst]

Prostitution is legal. Its called pornography.

Point taken...do you know the reason why all states except Nevada make it illegal for a person to sell sex for money (non-pornography prostitution?)

If it were legalized and taxed, I bet that it would make the government alot of money.

Based on revenue (MIN. $250K/YR per brothel) from Nevada, if prostitution was legalized and taxed in all fifty-seven states and territories, the US would wipe out debt in just a few years.

Your math and knowledge of America tells me you should not be posting, and you went to the same school for idiots that obutthurt attended. 50 states knot head.

 

[AmericanFirst]

Wrong question, IMO. It's not whether prostitution should be legal or not for adults. The question is, should ANY activity between adults that does not infringe on the rights of another be illegal? I argue "no". If you're an adult and you're not taking from or hurting another, the law should have no ability to prosecute you.

Yeah, I agree...why do all of the states except Nevada make it illegal?

The central planner wannabes are just SURE they know what's best for everyone else. I disagree.

Politics is primarily responsible for the persistent illegality of prostitution. Very few legislators will risk the backlash from married women and bible-thumping moralists which surely will result from proposing or voting for a legalization bill.

Good.

You haven't said what the truth is or what the press says. I have heard him speak in person and he hates Jews and whites and says he wants to see their blood flowing in the street, He is an extremely sick critter. Mr. Ofo Oao

Yep and stealing should be legal too. Its fair if everyone can do it right? Slavery too as long as at least half of us get to have them. Lets get to the lowest levels of humanity as quickly as possible.

No because there is a victim in stealing. Prostitution is selling a product. That product just happens to be sex. Women (and probably men too) have been doing it since ancient times and they still do it. I think that by making it legal, we can monitor it more, etc.

 

[Unkotare]

It is disgraceful that so many here apparently value some libertarian 'theory' more than they do the lives of women and girls (and boys) who inevitably suffer because of prostitution. Disgraceful and inhumane.

...I think that it should be if it could be organized in a way where those under the age of eighteen are unaware that it is legal.

Do you think that it should be legal? Why or why not?

Thanks for all answers

Mr. Ofo Oao,
In the criminal capitalist society we have in the U.S., most people are whores to one degree or another. It makes me absolutely sick that so many women are forced into that profession. On a TV program I was watching about it once, they had some people going around and trying to get these women to give up their lifestyle. But as I said, no matter what they did, they would just end up being different kinds of whores.

If I were running things, that would change. But for the time being, I think it should be kept illegal. I know this places many women between a pimp and a hard place. But until there is a social structure that actually gives a **** about them, it is best to do whatever is possible to promote monogamous, male-female relationships.

You don't have to care about them. It should be treated as any other business, and that would take care of many of the problems it raises.

ChrisL,
Why is it that at one time, a family could get by on a single income household? Because workers used to be treated more fairly. But it isn't that way any more. As a man, I can't stand for the thought of women becoming whores just because our whole economy is screwed. Also, the more money you have, the more money somebody will just figure a way of taking from you. Leaving people in general just spinning their wheels. So the extra money coming from whoredom isn't likely to do anybody any good. Except for the rich exploiters who like to have lots of *****.

Also, though it isn't likely to happen, what if things turned around economically. Then you would have a society that was generally accepting of prostitution. Another thing is that if prostitution became an accepted way of doing things, what would that do to momogamous famly life? Nothing good. In fact, it would probably become more common for women to have no need for such relationships at all. If only money could be a good substitute for pecock like feathers. But money can either just be inherited or have been gotten through decidedly unwholesome means. All in all, nothing good can come from supporting prostitution.

Prostitution has been around forever and was not always illegal. I highly doubt that many woman are going to be flocking to become prostitutes. It is usually reserved for those women who don't have any other options.

 

[koshergrl]

Yeah, and we all know how *empowering* it is to be a hooker.

I like hearing all the guys talk about better ways to make money off women, under the guise of *empowering* them.

I know it's unlikely. But a further spelling of your name wouldn't be Chris Lam.... would it. As to the rest, prostitution has been legal at times. As you probably know, it is legal in a couple places here in the U.S. But that doesn't make it right. Especially in a capitalist society where when it comes to money, anything goes. Also, it may or may not be true that women would flock to prostitution. Some may actually like it. But then, it's hard to say what kind of childhood they had.

All I can say is that for many of the women I have seen that were prostitutes, it makes me very sad to see them doing it. Then you talk of women that don't have any other option. That's one of the things I was saying. It disgusts me that I live in a society that doesn't leave those women any other option. I could change things. But the chances of that happening are about zero.

I never said that it was right, but that doesn't change the fact that your or my opinions about it don't matter to those women who need money, drugs, whatever the reason they are selling themselves. I can be against something for my own personal reasons but still realize that it could be of benefit to legalize it and that making it illegal only ends up hurting under-aged children because there are absolutely no checks being done at all.

That is my biggest concern in all of this, is the selling of minor boys and girls.

Simple answer: Yes

Agreed. At the very least, decriminalized.

ChrisL,
There is much logic to what you say. There is a long and proud tradition of exploitation when it comes to prostitution. But no doubt you noticed my avatar. I have a solution. Which is to execute anybody even suspected of being a pimp. That is, after a very short trial. Probably the main reason why the mafia was against Mussolini is because organized crime doesn't do very well under a Fascist regeme. Unlike here where there are countless laws and "civil liberties" for them to hide behind.
