Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Everyday we see small beggar children in the streets. It is because they don't have fathers and mothers. Do you want that the number of such children should increase. Most of these beggar children are the result of such prostitution. If you don't want to increse the number of such children DO NOT LEGALIZE prostitution....
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

How do you know that all of these "beggar children" are the result of prostitution? Since when is the goal of prostitution to have kids? I'm pretty sure it's just sexual gratification...
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

So let's illegalize sex too? Plenty of kids are born from sex with or without money. Wouldn't it be better for the kids if they didn't have to hide in the shadows with their parents and could get support? What will happen when the mother tries to get CS from the dad and he tells people she prostituted? Discourages her from getting any support cos she will just land in jail.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

A regulated system, which can be monitored, and controlled, will make it far easier to ensure contraceptives are used, and make it easier to ensure the safety of prostitutes. The current system protects no one and people can easily fall through the cracks. An unregulated mess, that we have now, is far worse.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Another reason that prostitution should be legalized is that it helps to spread bad diseases such as HIV or other diseases which are very dangerous to society. Most of those prostitutes have such disease!!!
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

If prostitution were legalized it's conceivable that a system would be devised in order to test customers for STD as well as test the actual employee for STD's before becoming employed by the prostitution company.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Prostitution should not legalaized. It becomes the reason of divorce of most families. Of course men want to be different girls or women. They can think that it doesn't matter when I do it only once, but it is addictive habbit. He will continue this and the result will be the divorce of most families. As examples I can give many of my relatives and some my familiar people.

Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

It becomes the reason of divorce of most families.HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... oh wait... you're being serious aren't you?
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

It becomes the reason of divorce of most families.This is not a good reason to ban prostitution. If that's the case, why don't we ban alcohol, or gambling? Surely you've heard of drunk husbands beating their wives. I'm also certain you've heard of adults with gambling problems, in which the gambling ruined their lives. There are people who can control themselves when they drink, at least so that they're generally non violent. And there are people who can control their gambling, telling themselves "I'll only spend X amount of money tonight". The potential for it to cause divorce is not a good reason to make prostitution illegal.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

I agree with your viewpoint that we should ban alcohol or gambling... All these things are bad and influence badly to mentality of young people. The future of our lives is in the hand of young generation. That's why we should treat our children
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

I am not saying we should ban alcohol or gambling. I believe both of those should remain legal. It is up to people to act responsibly. And besides, even if we did ban alcohol, we already know prohibition doesn't work. Pretty much anything that you make illegal goes underground. It still exists, it's just completely unregulated.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

All you want to do is down vote my arguments? Why don't you actually use your brain and try refuting my arguments?
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Isfandak, you do realize that people choose to cheat with or without a prostitute, and that having it be illegal doesn't help anything? The man or woman chooses to go to the prostitute, prostitute rings shouldn't be underground and criminalized along with other dangers out there just because you think someone will cheat...
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Do you want your sister or brother or someone else from your relatives to have a relationship with someone? Do you want to see them in the bed? Of course, not everyone wants such attitudes of his or her family. It is an obvious fact that sexual behavior between two gender can cause to illnesses like HIV etc. The crucial influence that prostitution will make is that it first of all breaks the root of marriage, which plays a very important and useful role in our society. Nowadays thousands of women or girls are involved in prostitution and i believe that if it continues this ways it will impact not only to the society but to our lovely generation too.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

It is an obvious fact that sexual behavior between two gender can cause to illnesses like HIV etc.Only if one person is already carrying HIV. With the prostitution industry being legalized, it's not too far fetched to think that "customers" would be required to be tested for STDs and things of that nature. The crucial influence that prostitution will make is that it first of all breaks the root of marriage, which plays a very important and useful role in our societyThis is not a basis from which you could justify banning an activity, in this case prostitution.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

If it were legalized it could be REGULATED. Now, its not, and it's rampant with all sorts of things, al kinds of other criminal things that are actually hurtful are taking place around them. Keeping it illegal does nothing good.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Every women can elect a sex-work job, despite the availability of other jobs. In contrast, a vast number of women are made to be prostitutes throughout the force, fraud, coercion, or the ravaging effects of poverty, discrimination, and other abuses. According to the article "The Medical Arguments Against Legalizing Prostitution" written by Reginald Finger, MD, MPH and Jeff Barrows, evidence has begun to accumulate from the Netherlands and Australia that legalization has resulted in more crime rather than less. Dr. Raymond and others have shown that a legally-sanctioned sex industry simply increases demand and attracts traffickers. In the meantime, violence against prostitutes continues and law enforcement often does little to stop it--the perception being that these women "bring it on themselves."
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Jeff Barrows, evidence has begun to accumulate from the Netherlands and Australia that legalization has resulted in more crime rather than lessThe legalization of prostitution would likely decrease the crime of rape by a sizable percentage. Found this on a website: In closing, I conjured up a picture of a very unattractive boy, no social skills and very shy. Sitting at home, watching MTV springbreak, with all the g-string bikinis. A constant bombardment of sexual imagery pours through TV and magazines. Day in and day out, the frustrations and the hormones grow. Through his interaction with peers, he realizes his chance for a mate are non-existant. In a perfect world, we would tell him that love and sex will come in time. But in reality, we know that it may not. Then society, that is bombarding him with sexual imagery, tells him he must control his urges or be removed from society. Feeling helpless to relieve a basic drive, he feels that there two possible outlets...Take what he needs, or pay for it. You decide.Would you rather this boy went out and raped a girl to satisfy himself? Or would you rather he paid a consenting adult to satisfy himself? Dr. Raymond and others have shown that a legally-sanctioned sex industry simply increases demand and attracts traffickers.Prostitution Sex Trafficking Sex trafficking would not exist without the demand for commercial sex flourishing around the world.What need would there be for sex trafficking if the service would be legal and you are able to purchase it?
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

As Isfandak mentioned above, legalizing prostitution will increase the rate of prostitutes and it can lead to many-many divorce of marriages. Despite that parents are already not taking care of their children, the percentage will raise up. By this way stupidity of young generation will be more, people will not be educated and then criminals and crimes will be a lot.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

I particularly like the part where you ignored everything I wrote, clicked the dispute button, and typed your response. Why don't you read my argument? Despite that parents are already not taking care of their children, the percentage will raise up.How will prostitution need to parents neglecting their children?By this way stupidity of young generation will be more, people will not be educated and then criminals and crimes will be a lot.You can't even type a coherent argument. Prostitution does not cause people to be stupid.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

right... so keep it ILLEGAL because people are being forced to do it. That solves the issue. You make no fucking sense. People being harmed is the reason it should be legalized! So that they wont be afraid to report someone for hurting them because they are involved in illegal activity! Making it a legal professional job only helps people who want to do it get out of the streets to do it.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

There are some broadcasting channels that aim influence society putting and showing erotic movies to people. By this way they earn money. Don't you think that in place of legalizing prostitution we could fight against them?
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Telling people "don't be a prostitute" isn't doing anything, and TV isn't to blame for prostitution. Why should people be put in jail in the first place? you'd rather people get hurt trying to stay out of jail or pay taxes on the people who do get caught (jail costs money) than let them do what they wish? How is prostitution different from other forms of physical service? Like massages? You cant oppose your victimless morals on sex on others. Its tyranny.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

According to Coalition Against Trafficking in Women International (CATW) written by Janice G. Raymond on March 25, 2003 countries are considering legalizing and decriminalizing the sex industry, we urge you to consider the ways in which legitimating prostitution as work does not empower the women in prostitution but does everything to strengthen the sex industry. Here are 10 reason to not legalize prostitution:Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution is a gift to pimps, traffickers and the sex industry.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution and the sex industry promotes sex trafficking.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not control the sex industry. It expands it.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution increases clandestine, hidden, illegal and street prostitution.Legalization of prostitution and decriminalization of the sex industry increases child prostitution.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not protect the women in prostitution.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution increases the demand for prostitution. It boosts the motivation of men to buy women for sex in a much wider and more permissible range of socially acceptable settings.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not promote women's health.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not enhance women's choice.Women in systems of prostitution do not want the sex industry legalized or decriminalized.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

1)If prostitution was legalized, women could unionize and receive better health care benefits2) If women did not have to fear being arrested for being a prostitute, they would be more likely to report abusive pimps3) by continuing to make prostitution illegal, it will stay in the hands of criminals who will likely abuse and take advantage of the women, whereas if it was illegal it can be regulated 4)In what way does telling a woman she can not do something enhance women's choice?
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Here is another fact that 87% of women in street-based prostitution use heroin www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs04/hors279.pdf
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

True, it is a technique pimps use to keep women under their control. So wouldn't it be better if prostitution was legalized and women would be able to avoid being placed under a pimp's control and seek proper care for their addiction
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Parents do not want their children to grow up thinking that prostitution is acceptable. Worse yet, parents do not want to hear their children say, "When I grow up, I want to be a prostitute." Christianity also looks down upon prostitution because according to their beliefs, the act of sex is only to be done when a man and a woman are in love and married. Moreover, the fact that sexually transmitted diseases and AIDS should be the reason to make prostitution illegal.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Oh dear, where do I start?First off, parents can certainly influence children and try to make them not a prostitute if they so wish, but ultimately, that choice is the child's, and what their parents want is irrelevant. If protitution is what your child wants to do, it's what s/hewants to do.Second, it does not matter what Christianity looks down upon because our religion is a fractured and divided one, and follwing outmoded rules like that is not going to help. There are rules in the bible saying that you cannot work on Sunday and that a woman must marry her rapist. Those all made sense 2000 years ago, but are abhorrent now.And you can test for AIDS and other STDs, and doing so would be made easier and safer if prostitution actually was legalized.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Well prostitution will only trigger human trafficking and encourage people to sell their bodies for money. Not only that, children would be used as mere objects by their irresponsible parents rather than let them study. If it were to be legalized, then people will be no different than sex toys, the difference would be much cash would be at stake. Another would be that people would become lazy. If I for an example am lazy to study and am a sex addict, then I ll just have sex with some women and I am gonna be rich. Humans are not mere toys whom can be played with. Respect yourself if you want to be respected.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

No... But it's not the fact about paying for sex, it's the fact about how current prostitutes work. I wouldn't be so bad if it was paying for sex, but women are forced and beat and it's just bad news. I mean, I don't ever know if paying for sex is good. You really want something go out and find it.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

It is wrong and immoral. Selling your body fir money is wrong and low. It is against religion and its morals.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Eww no this would pass on so many diseases. Why would any one want this other than horny teens. This would be such a sin if legalized. Which btw will never be
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

It's degrading, disrespectful of the human body and void of morals that as a society we need. Decency in people is needed, if people willingly sell their bodies how can you respect them as people, how can their opinions and thoughts and votes be taken seriously, if they are so willing to sell their bodies then surely all of the above would easily be manipulated, this is why prostitution was more common amongst those of lower intelligence a pattern visible today in strip clubs.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Then everyone would have HIV
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

No it should not be legalized because the reason why the population growth in developing countries is so high because there are a lot of unintended pregnancies because of prostitution.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Did you even bother searching up any information? It's not prostitution that makes third world countries have a high birth rate, it's demographic transition: High death rate makes high birth rate necessary to maintain the population.This is Grade 11 Socials for fuck's sake.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Hey i am not even grade 11 yet dude plus how is the death rate maintained.The population in those areas are out of control.Its like 300 deaths 1000 births.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

I see, well, youth is no excuse for ignorance. The reason that population grows so fast is not because there are so many prostitutes. Many third world countries like Afghanistan actually have prostitution as a punishable offense against Islamic culture, but the population still explodes.The reason why the population is getting gher is due to the fact that, unlike our culture of USA/Canada/Europe, women are required to marry in order to have any chance of surviving. They annot get jobs as easily as men, so they marry and have children. The Total Fertility Rate of the USA is 2.1 birth per woman in 2010. Afghanistan? 6.7. I guarentee you that's not from prostitution, which is illegal in Afghanistan due to Islamic law.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Okay i get it now you are talking about prostitution in asian countries i was talking about prostitution in african countries.Plus just because you are older you can not call me ignorant.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Okay fine. Prove to me you are not ignorant by giving evidence that prostitution causes overpopulation.I already proved it to you with my response about the middle east. It causes no population problems over there on the count of it being punishable by death, so why would it cause any problems in Africa?
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: No

Since most africans are in poverty a lot of them turn to prostitution which helps contribute to overpopulation.Plus goverment in africa is pretty weak and not unified so protitutes can go around without getting caught.i am not saying prostitution is the cause of overpopulation i am saying it helps.
Debate: Should Prostitution Be Legalized?
Side: Yes

Of course it contributes. But its contribution is so tiny it actually doesn't even make that much of a difference. And the reason that the government is weak is because of the horrible state of its economy and the recent wars, not because of prostitution.
Debate: Should Religion Be Abolished?
Side: Yeah

Not abolished, allowed to disintegrate under scientific knowledge. Any kind of "abolishment" would cause more trouble than wars BETWEEN religions.Besides, many of the nicest people in this world are religious. Problem is, religions are being taken over (as they have since their beginning), by those who see their chance for control of the masses now slipping away with an awakening of facts that can't be denied. I think they'll be reduced to a few cults by the end of this century .... if we survive them.

That is abnormal.And as for having the right to do whatever you want, then you are contradicting Messianic Judaism and Christianity anyway, so as per usual you are talking utterly delusional gibberish.
