Why?  Will prostitution go away?  What's the point of wasting all the money on busting hookers and Johns?  How much money is spent on jails?  How much productivity is lost when people have records?  How many women have to suffer because they can't go to the police or have to work for pimps?

Why should it be illegal at all?

No prostitution will never go away completely.  As for wasting $$ on busting Johns/pimps .... Gee ... you should ask those forced into sex slavery.  Does Epstein's island ring a bell??   Or should we just look the other way? God forbid if we waste money trying to save young women and men who are forced into prostitution and hold those responsible ... U.N. is also involved and responsible for sex trafficking.
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Legalized prostitution doesn't mean that trafficking is legal or sex with underage people is legal.

If women have legal protections they do not have to live in the shadows.  Legalizatiom solves these problems, largely.

Legal protections???? Meaning what exactly.  :pop41:

Legal protections means that because what she does is not a crime, she can count on the protections afforded to people who repair cars, program computers, cook burgers....right now if a pimp abuses a woman, what can she do?  Tell the cops she can't keep her money?  She has an unsafe work environment?

If a woman wants to sell me intimacy, and I'm able and willing to buy, we should have the right to engage in that deal. If we're going to tell the gays they have the rights they do, then incels should have the right to buy some reasonable facsimile of love if the real thing is out of reach.

It's when the pimps start getting involved that prostitution becomes a problem.

Don't forget then it will need to be Taxed and regulated.  Later, after the gov ruins the market for sex workers it will need to be subsidized.  Followed by OSHA inspections....Health Dept inspections...

And any time a woman loses her job and tries to collect unemployment, the labor department can direct her to fill an open position as a sex worker at a brothel.  If she refuses, her unemployment is cut off.

Asking whether or not prostitution should be legal has nothing to do with free market economics.  But since you asked, prostitution should not be legal because it degrades women, kind of like how legal abortion degrades women.  I am guessing you are male?

It should be illegal because it's degrading, in your opinion?  Where in the Constitution does the govt have any right to ban something degrading, and what if I found a woman who said it wasn't degrading? Can she do it?

Should pornography be illegal, too?  It's a weird little loophole...I can legally pay a woman to have sex if I say its to film it, right?

See Amendment X.


and what if I found a woman who said it wasn't degrading? Can she do it?

Not if the State says it is illegal.

Personally, I believe pornography is detrimental to society in several areas.  If I had to vote, I would vote to ban it.  But I am just one member of society.  The intent is that we the members of a society come together and establish the rules we want, which is our right under the Tenth Amendment and our republican government, as long as it does not violate the US Constitution.

Agreed. Any Donald Trump/Stormy Daniels type transactions are none of my concern.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

IIRC,the guy that owned it died,and his will was pretty much useless. In addition,he had unpaid taxes,and they took over management while it was up for sale to try to pull in the tax money.

You do have a point,though. Soulless goobermint accountants are NOT the people to be running a pleasure business. After all,their natural tendency is to give you less while charging you more.

There was Bible-thumping going on here?  What did I miss?  I bet it was something from Ezekiel.  That always causes a stir.

Sneaky friend, men were born with a strong sexual desire for women - that is why we have people on earth.  Women were born with the capability of birthing a child - or not, since there are ways to prevent pregnancy that were not available many years ago.

You, sneaky, a man, can do whatever you want with your sex organs, they are yours, only yours.  Therefore, a woman can do whatever she wants with her sex organs, they are hers, only hers.  If she wants/needs money, she can sell herself - it is no ones' business what she does with her body, she owns it, they do not.

I had parents who paid for me to go to college, went to close Jr. College, the summer after I graduated from high school, then on to a university in the fall.  Before going to university, parents took me to Sanger-Harris department store in Dallas and said to buy whatever clothes I wanted.  Until then, my mother had made my clothes.  Before taking me to the university to live in the dorm, my parents gave me a checkbook and told me if I needed something, to buy it.

It was always known from my being a child, I was going to college.  You can read above what great parents I had.  What if my parents were extremely poor and back in those years, around 1949, when I was sixteen and headed to college, girls could not find jobs easily.  Would I have sold myself to allow me to go to college?  Probably, because I was going to college one way or another.

You own your body, I own mine and everyone on this board owns theirs - no one has the right to tell others what to do with their body.

I have noted in the past that women also seem to be afflicted with a strong sexual desire for men.

It kinda works out for everybody.

Probably not. There were women only colleges back in those days,and scholarships.

I THINK there are still a few private (and VERY expensive) women-only colleges today.

Agreed. No matter how much we might want to,we just do NOT have that right. Not in America,anyway. Maybe not even for long in America,but the concept of "Each man/woman is an island" is still alive and well for the moment.

This,of course will change soon,when the globalists seize final control. NO ONE will be allowed to have a baby without getting a permit,and the number of children allowed in each family will be strictly controlled by local committees.
