The Never Ending Debate on Prostitution Options

[fameONE]

The title alone should speak for itself.

From time to time, I'll turn on my digital cable box in the midst of my insomnia to find something erotic in nature, or just downright kinky on the major movie channels. Last night, at around 2am, I flip on HBO and found myself fixated on a documentary following the business and girls of the Bunny Ranch in Nevada. I had never even heard of a legal brothel so my jaw dropped. Along with the entertainment, I went along watching this hour long show attempting to morally justify someone's pastor concealing his identity and helping out their business. Being that this country is run by the moral majority, I still tried to way the pros of a possible decriminalisation on a wider scale.

Already there are brothels run legally all over Nevada; Las Vegas (of course), Reno, Carson City, Beatty, Hawthorne, Winnemucca, Battle Mountain, Elko and Wells. If its already legal there, don't you think its just a matter of time before its legal across the country? Imagine driving up the highway and seeing whorehouses instead of XXX Megaplexes.

So, I ask all of you. Do you think its wrong? Or do you think that in this free country a woman should be allowed to sell her body for cash.

You didn't give me your sources.


I mentioned planned parenthood as an EXAMPLE. Clearly, we were talking about two different things, which is why I even asked if I was misinformed or if we were talking about different tests.

Obviously I know of no program, yet, otherwise I would have mentioned it. One can be made and implemented though.

You say they will charge some serious money, so if this is the case, then why not? It's for their safety and for the safety of their employees. Also, maybe being somewhat high priced isn't such a bad idea. Then it would limit the clients and if this is the case, prostitution would not increase either employee-wise or client-wise, and then less problems right? Seems that majority of your argument is that prostitution will cause problems because it would increase; please correct me if I'm wrong.

Because the cost of the STD/HIV tests alone would cost more than the cost for a woman to give oral to a client. The idea of legalizing prostitution while enforcing STD/HIV tests (and of course they want thorough tests done) on both parties (prostitute and client) would be silly. The price for sexual pleasure would cost a hell of a lot, thus making the client want to look on the streets for cheaper sexual pleasure, thus making prostitution "healthy and legal" ridiculously useless.

I don't think you read the article, if you have... you;d see the reasons why many countries are debating why or why not to legalize it. And it's problems like in that article that make many powerful leaders just ignore the request.
