Should Prostitution Be Legal In America?

[Delta4Embassy]

It's already legal as long as you don't call it prostitution.

-porn videos
-non-therapeutic massage
-escorts
-sugar daddies/mommies and golddigging
-video/phone sex

Prostitution proper is more about the overt offering of sex services for money. Yet we do it many different ways minus the overt part. So in effect we have prostitution already but call it other things as above. Thus making prostitution legal is really only a matter of letting the various prostitutes 'come out of the closet' as it were.

Should it be legal in the US? Yes.

Semantics doesn't change the reality of prostitution, or all the additional ills that come with it.

It is disgusting to see how many people, having been presented with the facts, seem all too willing to accept or ignore trafficking in women and girls, rape, abuse, dependency, etc. Some of y'all are some seriously sick fucks. No wonder...

Human trafficing isn't prostitution. It's sex slavery.

You are one abrasive fucker. You won't find anyone accepting nor ignoring human trafficking, rape and abuse. You have linked to a study whose findings agree with your moral compass and highlighted the bullet points that make your case. A common tactic. I use it often myself.

However, the study that you cited also said:

“The likely negative consequences of legalised prostitution on a country’s inflows of human trafficking might be seen to support those who argue in favour of banning prostitution, thereby reducing the flows of trafficking,” the researchers state. “However, such a line of argumentation overlooks potential benefits that the legalisation of prostitution might have on those employed in the industry. Working conditions could be substantially improved for prostitutes — at least those legally employed — if prostitution is legalised. Prohibiting prostitution also raises tricky ‘freedom of choice’ issues concerning both the potential suppliers and clients of prostitution services.”

Here is a study that was linked to a discussion of the study you presented:

It suggests that regulated legalization coupled with severe penalties for those who do not conform to the regulations has the most potential to reduce or eliminate trafficking.

Enjoy. And stop the childish bullshit, would ya?

My late wife and I successfully raised three girls. We never told them not to become prostitutes simply because it is illegal. Instead we imbued them with self-respect, which is not hard to do. If something in one's individual nature resists or overcomes that orientation there is little to nothing which is capable of preventing it.

From a purely philosophical perspective there are forms of prostitution which are more humanistically degrading than providing sexual pleasure for money -- and working as a narc or a vice cop are two examples.

Yeah, you might not have read it in the thread, but I agreed that children know that beer, alcohol, pornography, and marijuana (CO & WA) are legal...knowing that prostitution is legal probably wouldn't be any different than knowing that the aforementioned are legal.

Why don't you use some examples from Nevada where it is legal?

 

[Dogmaphobe]

. Some of y'all are some seriously sick fucks. .

Are you kidding? have you seen the going rate for a good sick fuck? What with having to pay for the binge eating and then the cleanup, it can run into several bills.

Who has that kind of cash these days, anyway?

The study I cited used extensive details gathered from entire countries where the practice had been legalized, you dope.

 

[Unkotare]

You won't find anyone accepting nor ignoring human trafficking, rape and abuse.

I see many people here doing exactly that.

And it always comes along with prostitution. I guess you just don't give a shit, huh?

...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

Prostitution is legal. Its called pornography.

What a consistently stupid poster you are.

Do you say this kind of stuff IRL? If so I imagine people flock around you in disbelief, taking pictures of the village moron.
