Should prostitution be legalized? It is in Nevada and the Netherlands, why not everywhere?

...or is the moral state of Nevada and the Netherlands something to be avoided?

The red light district at night seemed a little seedy.

I do think prostitution should be legal. Though I wouldn't use one myself, there's STI's to think about.

ST"I"? What does the "I" stand for? In North America they're STDs - sexually transmitted diseases.

It's changed to STI - sexually transmitted infections. I think it's because it covers more areas - is crabs a desease?

yes. It should be taxed and there should be health restrictions put on the businesses.

People are going to do it anyway, so why not make a buck off it and make sure it doesn't **** people up health wise

yes. Murder should be taxed and there should be health restrictions put on the businesses so that the body isn't ditched where it could spread diseases.

People know the dangers of prostitution. If they still want to do it we cant stop them. It IS consenting sex between two adults.

Hehe, well yes, I certainly passed through the red light district, but like red_jon said, it all seemed a little too seedy and it made me feel quite uncomfortable. And then there is the cost. We are not all made of money you know

Hey, everyone is trolling. Why shouldn't we allow it. everyone's on this forum after a free and councious choice afterall.

In Africa it is well accepted that prostitutes are a major vector for the AIDS epidemic. If you legalize it how often do you have to test the prostitutes in order to prevent minimize transmission? The usual means of testing look for antibody production. By the time the test is positive the subject has had the infection for weeks and have been contagious for much of that time. There are PCR tests that directly measure viral DNA, and therefore detect the disease earlier, but they are expensive.

I predict that eventually some governmental entity in Nevada will be sued for licensing prostitution without providing adequate safeguards.

I am absolutely in favor of a post count reduction (PCR) for anybody transmitting AIDS on this or any other bulletin board.

you're comparing Prostitution to murder?

With murder, someone is having their rights denied. In prostitution, both members are consenting to do what they're doing, one to pay for a service and the other to give a service. No one's rights are being violated in that they both had a choice in the matter.

I think that everybody who uses the "consenting adults" argument should admit they're for legalizing all drugs as long as they're only used by "consenting adults". Everything else is just double standards
