davjohns 1 #26 August 13, 2012 Cheaper that way. Who made it illegal? Bet they were married and bitter.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shotgun 1 #27 August 13, 2012 One more question.... Why do you personally feel that prostitution is immoral? (Assuming business between consenting adults.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you long for the glory years of the US, when prostitution was legal? Perhaps before 2009, when Rhode Island outlawed prostitution? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

QuoteA person, touches your body with their body, for your pleasure in exchange for money. What makes prostitution different? Why is touching you here for money different/immoral than touching you there for money? I don't see much difference, technically. I'm not sure why a lot of people think prostitution is immoral, but it seems that, for whatever reason, most people do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #37 August 13, 2012 QuoteEven at a very young age we have a sense that certain sexual behavior is wrong. I don't recall what I thought of prostitution at a very young age. But as an adult, I see nothing immoral about a reasonably sane adult choosing to provide a service and another adult choosing to pay for that service. (I mean, yeah, there are some immoral things that could go along with this, but I don't see the basic idea/act as being immoral.) Just my opinion, of course.

Throttlebender 0 #42 August 13, 2012 "Because it is... Even at a very young age we have a sense that certain sexual behavior is wrong. As we grow old, we tend to sear our conscience." No we don't. Someone, at some point, comes along and slaps our hand and say, "Don't you do that! That's dirty!" Or catches is playing "Doctor" With Johny or Katie, and tells us how shameful we are and that we can't play with them anymore. Until that indoctrination occurs, we were happy to explore ourselves and one another. The "immorality" of those situations is taught. It's definitely not our natural inclination.Life expands or contracts in proportion to one's courage. ~Anais Nin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fearjoburg 0 #49 August 13, 2012 I think if prostitution is legal that it would: 1)Reduce human trafficking provided proper legislation is in place. I don't however say that it will totally eliminate it. 2) Increase the tax base 3) These people will be entitled to social benefits (I don't know about the US but in the RSA they are not) 4) I also think the prostitutes will be more likely to report cases of abuse Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arvoitus 1 #50 August 13, 2012 Quote Quote It sickens me how people debase love....my self included. I think most people go to prostitutes for sex, not for love. GFE: Quote The girlfriend experience (commonly known as GFE) is a type of service a female sex worker offers which includes acting like a girlfriend to the client. GFE includes french kissing, hugging, talking, and eating a meal together. If you can find http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_and_the_Brothel from somewhere, there was one dude in that doc who was clearly buying more then just sex.Your rights end where my feelings begin.
