    The same way Jews, Gypsies and the intellectually disabled were in 1930s Nazi Germany?

    The same way the cream of the Cambodian population were in the 1970s?

    The same way Tibetans that protest against the Chinese Government are today?

    I would hope you are joking.

    In my views, it shoudn't be made legal because if it is a legal act then more people will be inclined towards such act and more diseases like AIDS and such will grow rapidly.

    No it should not be legal. Atleast there should be something called morality. If it is legalised it sends the message that there is no wrong in paying a girl for sex which will bring the moral values of human furthur down. No way it should be legalised. It will have a very bad effect on society.

    If the moral problems were solved by simple prohibitions there would have long been a paradise on earth. But somehow such an idyllic picture still has not been seen. But time and again we can see examples of how a ban against something was fruitless and created additional problems. Take for example the dry law. In whatever country it acted, people had not cease drinking (U.S., USSR), but more weight problems had appeared (mafia, drug addiction) which before the enaction of the law were not in such large scale. Highly ethical man under compulsion. This is already anti ethical. Want to laugh? Anonymous surveys show that 95% of men (a normal sexual orientation) had used or were not opposed to use prostitutes.

    Yes, it should be. That way we can control AIDS and other things such as drug trade etc.

    But we need to control exploitation as well.

    Prostitution is legal in many countries in the world, including the one I live in & you don't see ads everywhere, only places where they are allowed to advertise.

    I vote yes, it should be legal.

    Still don't see a single good point to it being illegal.

    The 'oh control aids' one is also funny as hell as making it legal would BY FAR control aids better and the spread of other STD's.

    If you stand by that being a reason to ban it, knowing that you are wrong and making it legal is the correct route as the women/men will be tested I hope you see the error in your ways and now support legalizing it.

    If not, you obviously were just looking for a reason to say 'no keep it illegal'

    It should be legal. If it were it could be taxed and that money could be used to stop diseases.

    Prostitution should be legal.

    I (and others) have no right to interfere in a private relationship between two adults. As long as the relationship is consensual, it is no one else's business.

    Prostitution is a victimless crime. If we are going to advance as a society, we will need to get away from the ridiculous moralizing and control, instead allowing people to engage in any sort of behavior they wish, as long as it does not harm others.

    Some respects I can say no and some I can say yes,

    It will stop people from raping other girls (maybe) if it comes illegal?

    doubt it, im not a criminal psychologist or anything but i dont think people rape women because they can't find a good prostitute in the paper, i think its because of dominance, control etc. etc.

    Why? What business of it is yours if I want to sell sex for money?

    Do you own me?
