Aren't you renting out cloud?

I have no opinion on this matter.

Prostitution is legal where I live anyway.

The thing about prostitution is that the people who really NEED to take advantage of it- the Virgin Squads of the world, if you will- rarely do. C'mon PD and company, fork over that skrill for some poontang.

Well, it would certainly make things easier.

If it was legalized and it was highly monitored like it is in Nevada i guess i'd go for it. At least if it was legalized everywhere with certain standards and stuff it would drive the cost of pussy down. And thats good for everyone.

Our existing laws are soft enough that prostitution is pretty much legal already. You can call any escort service or goto any massage parlor and get laid.

There is no way to correctly monitor prostitution. Lots of shady practices are ignored in Nevada, and I don't think the majority of the country wants to imitate Nevada's stance.

When people think of prostitution they seem to forget a couple things, mainly children. First off, legalizing it sends a message to people, especially children. I don't want to live in a country in which prostitution is considered a professional, legal profession for women to make money.

Second off, the problem of child prostitution comes to mind. This is already a problem right now, but a legalization of prostitution would put these young girls into even more danger by decriminalizing the practice. In the Netherlands for instance, child prostitution sharply rose after prostitution was legalized, hitting high levels in the 90's and early 2000's.

Women are already considered an object by many people, but legalizing prostitution would indeed make them sex objects to be purchased and treated as such. I don't think most Americans like the idea of making pimps legal businessmen or sanctioning a practice that allows one to treat prostitutes any way they please without any legal consequences.

You end up paying for it one way or the other, why not? I hate the government telling people what they can & can't do with their bodies.

I think gambling should be legal too.

It might as well be legal. Indian casinos popping up all over the place.

Here in Southern California there's like 20 Indian Casinos in a 50-mile radius.

Personally, I don't believe in it and I find it classless and disgusting.

However, it's your life and if that's how you choose to make your money than go for it. *shrugs*

Like in a sociology paper? Already done.

I really think people should look into the issue of child prostitution and how the legalization of prostitution would effect it.

Obviously, you'd have to be at least 18 to be a prostitute -- being underage is still underage, no matter the profession.

Are you serious? You don't know what you're talking about

Since when are there laws with street prostitution?

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #17 on:** November 22, 2006, 01:25:52 PM »

If they were to legalize prostitution, it still would be against the law for children to go around selling themselves on the street corner. Apparently, you still think that LEGALIZING PROSTITUTION = MY TWO YEAR OLD CAN CHARGE $5 FOR A HANDJOB.

Saint Cornelius · « **Reply #18 on:** November 22, 2006, 01:26:39 PM »

But Dark, you think that smoking cheeba in a house with a child in it = holding that child down and blowing smoke in her face

This is a serious issue, and as such it deserves to be taken seriously. It's quite clear that you have absolutely no understanding of child prostitution.

There are no laws with street prostitution, period. A pimp is not bound by any legal terms like a real businessperson is. If he sends out a 16 year old to make him money, his decision is not going against any written rules because there are none that he follows. Is that hard to understand?

Legalizing prostitution would increase child prostitution and sex trafficking.

If a child chooses to become a prostitute if and when it becomes legalized (knock on wood), than that is their own decision -- and, if they are stupid enough to do so, then they deserve to be taken advantage of. Stop being such a blowhard, PD, and start letting people make their own decisions.

Plus, if prostitution were legal, the need for pimps would no doubt be diminished -- most women hook up with pimps so that they have protection when they can't turn to the police. With prostitution legalized, this won't be an issue; i.e., less pimps, more hoes, and everybody is happy.

So child prostitution is perfectly fine with you? Despite rape and abuse, it's fine with you. Grow up Shake.

The need for pimps would not diminish - they'd be given more power actually. It would make them commercial businessmen no different than intermediate merchants.

Legalization of prostitution would increase street prostitution as well; prostitution is all about anonymity when you think about it. The prospect of taking that away and forcing sex workers to follow guidelines is not ideal at all.

To make matters worse, legalizing prostitution would be another way to spread diseases. In Nevada prostitutes are forced to take AIDS tests, but come on: if you offered a prostitute $1000 to have sex with you without a condom, do you honestly think they'd turn it down because "it's not safe"?

This is what I hate about EvilBore: it's almost impossible to have a serious discussion. Outside of Willco, Malek (who's gone for the year), and a couple other people it seems like no one is interested in having serious discussions of serious issues. This is not juvenile shit. Prostitution is not just a joke, and it's not a simple issue. It effects the entire community.
