Prostitution.

I will label each argument I'm referring to by your quotes of me by 1. 2. 3. etc.. (in order) 1.I said an independent agency. Not a federal. A federal law would establish the need for one, and I'm positive someone like Hugh Heffner would immediate jump on that to fund it. The underage prostitution. I hate it. Nothing we can do about it that isn't already being done. By making prostitution into a company, we create accountability, a system for complaints, and abuse disappear. I have never heard of a prostitute abuse case from Amsterdam or Nevada. Pimps are created because it's ILLEGAL if you take away the illegality then the pimps disappear. Industrialize the industry of sex and you make it clean and sparkly. "life style of drug use, neglected children, abuse, depression" I already sufficiently proved you wrong in the department of drug use, abuse, and neglected children (condoms). Depression? Sex releases all of the Endorphins in the body and makes you anything BUT depressed. Further, turning "prostitution into a a company means that there are support groups for the one in a million shots that someone will be depressed. Street walking hookers are depressed because they get abused by their pimp (which would disappear with legalization) and because they don't make much money. Street walkers don't choose that lifestyle, but prostitution itself is not bad and many choose it if it can be done with class. 2.Ok. So what? Your husband is probably a, "nasty man breathing, sweating" all over you... The point being that legalized prostitutes would enter that profession willingly and be able to get out willingly. Let's compare this to a masseuse. Do you think they want to be rubbing a million people's backs? All of their skin etc etc. No matter what that person looks like they have to touch them in some very intimate places. Should they stop working? Also, don't characterize men who can't get sex the normal way as nasty. You are a terrible person for saying such a thing and it's not an objective way of looking at it. 3.Are you worried about hurt feelings or preventing 500 people from contracting an STD. Priorities lady. 4.All of those things that you say it pros. entails...would dissapear. If you make something illegal, the people who want it and need it who associate with it are going to do illegal things. For example, a good quote I like to quote about another issue, but very similar in concept. "If you criminalize guns, only the criminals have them." Making Pros. legal removes hookers from that illegal industry of drugs and abuse. 5. When I say famous people, I say people of note in history. It's been a longtime tradition to use hookers and it only became immoral in recent history, but you wouldn't know that because you didn't read my whole post. The Romans had nightly orgies. Hookers were commonplace. They were one of the smartest most intelligent societies on the planet. Prostitution was not a problem in their city, it was a release. Their issue was over expansion over time. Here also is an article about Greece...http://en.wikipedia.org... 6.The exploitation would end as soon as you remove the pimps and regulate everything like a corporation. A business. 7.I have no idea what you're talking about. If I were to use a hooker legally I would want to be able to meet her, make clear want I want in a friendly environment without an angry pimp staring at me waiting for me to finish so he can make more money. Then I would want to be taken to a clean room, not a raunchy motel. I'm not the only one that thinks like this. Look at the Redlight district in Amsterdam where it is legal and brothels are very clean and run like a business. 8.Your point was that prostitutes attract drugs. If you remove them from the parts of the world that have heavy drug use and put them in clean brothels off the street and don't allow drugs...they would go away. 9.Yes it will happen. Forever. As long as there is a market. I hate it. We agree on this. 10. Don't try to weasel your way out of your words. The concept is there. 11. You said sex dumbs you down. Logically, you and I are both idiots. 12. It's only degrading to you and your fellow pros. haters. The rest of the world who likes it doesn't seem to agree. Degrading is a subjective term, I already went over this, but you ignored it. 13. The lifestyle hurts people because of the state it's in. If you remove it from the streets and take it inside and make it a business with clients and accountability (and the possibility of moving around to other brothels and therefore creating competition) You've lost this argument. All of your arguments are subjective relating to YOUR values. YOUR children. and YOUR life. It is not the role of the federal government to dictate how I get my sex, or god, or anyone. Non interventionism. I can't believe I wrote all this out. Look at amsterdam. They have very happy well paid hookers who enjoy what they do and very happy clients. They don't have drug addicts, pimps, hookers wandering the streets.... QED.
