Prostitution

 

It has been around since the dawn of civilization!

The uneasy relationship America has had with this profession largely stems from religious moralists telling others what to do.  These same religious moralists who preach the loudest against prostitution usually are the ones ending up being serviced by what they seemingly abhor.  Example:  Jimmy Swaggart and too many others to list here.

Legalize it. Tax it.  The tension will disappear.

Yes!  I agree!

To be absolutely honest, a few weeks ago as I counted the cost of my recent fraudulent marriage, I realized I could have hired a prostitute one day a week for better than what I have lost to this woman who lied to me. But still I would not lower and degrade myself to do such a thing. Also that does not imply that I married just for the one reason. If that one reason was case, then why get married?

As for religious moralists as you describe, they are still human and sinners and can still make mistakes just as easy as anyone else.

Go ahead, legalize prostitution, I don't really care. Every person will still stand before God someday and give an account for their lives. And if you don't believe in God, that's not my problem.

Believe me, I think a prostitute would have been much better service.

And think of the money that could be added to the county/city tax base!  Let's legalize pot too (at the Federal level this time) while we are at it! Think of the tax revenue that could raise!

I completely agree with this post. Last night we saw a prostitution sting on tv. What a waste of money!! There are much more important crimes being committed that should be the center of attention. As for the marijuanna, I also agree. The amount of profit generated from such actions would be astounding.

Job if people don't believe in God...standing before God someday to face punishment isn't even an issue... lol    However, I agree with you,  a prostitute would probably have been cheaper than your last wife was.

 I don't see any reason why prostitution isn't legal.  Legalizing prostitution would save tax payers money ,and the police time, and perhaps even make having sex with a ho a bit more safe.

Smokey... yep... I agree legalize marijuana too...  a lot of time and tax money spent for what, putting a silly pot head in jail....geez.. lol   I know drunks that are more trouble than pot heads.

I was watching a episode of cops a while back and they were busting ''Johns''. The cops were explaining to the ''Johns that a lot of the hookers out there had AIDS or other STD's and I thought to myself, Well ya they do because the system to blame. If it was legal it could be controlled. Get the girls off the street and into brothels or whore houses where the girls would be safe. Test the working girls regularly for STD's . It would be regulated and even taxed.

The Christan right religious fanatics are to blame. If you ask me their hands are dirty for pushing prostitution onto the streets and back alley's. Prostitution is one law that creates more crime. Because it is pushed into the streets for being ''immoral'' hookers are regularly beaten and killed. Because it ''immoral'' johns are taking STD's home to their wives and girlfriends. Wake up people some men will go to prostitutes no matter what. They always have they always will.

Why is it OK to go to a bar and buy a chick a few drinks and then take her home and boink  her but its not OK to go to a bar and instead of buying her the drinks just give her the money the drinks would have cost and then boink her. Its the same thing. A act between two consenting adults is non of the governments business. STUPID LAW!!!!!!!
