Legalising Prostitution

[piddle2k6]

I agree with reasons for it to be legal but the people paying and the women themselves can get incurable diseases and help pass on HIv/aids etc

as in other counties (I think);; the prostitutes would have to go to regular doctor's visits to check they're free from STD's & STI's so they are able to keep their license (if it was done on a license basis).
So they would enforce the use of condom's to stop people passing them on.

i really think legalising it could have its advantages. i mean, it'd stop it being such a dodgy thing and would probably give women more protection from men assaulting them and stuff. can't say i'm into that kind of thing, but it could work.

I m on the fence concerning this because I see the points you have all made as to why it would be better to have it legalised however I still think of it as wrong for women to sell their bodies.

Well their bodys belong to them not you, do you think you should have the right to choose what you wish to do with your body? if so, then you must support that right for others, that if they do infact wish to sell there bodys, they have every right to do so?

Second point is, nearly all these people would do it anyway, with all the dangers. So legalising it makes it safer for them, and changes nothing in a negative way for the rest of people "/

Secondly, i dont understand how prostition is really considerd selling yourself any more than, being payed to fix someones plumbing is. after all in both instances your selling your own time and effort, doing phyiscal task with your body.
I dont see how haveing sex for money is really any more selling your body, after all your selling a service, the body still belongs to them, and becuse it does they choose to be payed to perform this servise.

I support freedom of speech, rights and issues like that however when it is an issue like this which can have knock on affects & bad consequences e.g. women selling their bodies to fund a drug addiction then no, i don't support that.

so you dont think people should have freedom over what they can do with there own bodys? which as a nockon imply things such as having pearsing's tatoos should be illgalised as should plastic surgery. Taken futher it means they could easly be legal constrains on behavior, nutration or anything else that is about freedom of your own phyiscal being?

Plus in what ways is selling your time and the servise of intercourse selling your body? its a false statment.

Prostitues are for people who can't get laid to be frank. Shouldn't be made legal, however it would almost definatly cut down on abuse of women.

That is a completely ridiculous thing to say. There are TONS of girls who get forced into prostitution through the most awful circumstances, being "taken in" by pimps and then forced into a lifetime of abuse at the hands of men paying to have their way with them.

And if these women can't get laid anyway... how on earth would they get laid and be PAID for the privelidge? That makes no sense.

these women?
i meant the men who use them
