You are perfectly allowed to think whatever you wish and have whatever opinions you want. However, why should your opinion be forced on to others with the force of law. Especially when it makes no logical sense to allowing sex for free but then arrest people for selling it or paying for it. Since you hate the idea of prostitution, which is obvious with your slanderous language, there are three things that you could do.

1) Don't become one.
2) Don't go to one.
3) Remove anyone from your life that has, will have, or would have gone to one.

Once these steps have been taken, prostitution will no longer affect your life. That's assuming it ever has in the first place. Therefore, what harm would it really be for someone that has no association with you to see a prostitute that also has no association with you.

In the areas where prostitution is legal there are less STI's, less abuse of prostitutes, and less drug use. Compared to areas that have illegal prostitution. People are going to do it one way or another. Might as well make it safer.

A pure form of sex = purely sex

Don't fwb or one night stands provide that too? And you don't have to pay or risk getting arrested

It's much more difficult for most to find that kind of relationship.

If I had to define pure sex, I would say it was sex done for the sole purpose of procreation....

To Uchea:

Only '2' 'kinds' can (and affirmatively 'YES') provide you an 'impeccable' explanation:

(a) A lady who's a 'prostitute' by profession

(b) A man who frequents 'those' places


PS (You may consider me to fall in 'neither' of the 'above' 'kinds'):

I do not know why 'men' actually patronize 'prostitution' (or 'prostitutes' for that matter) [maybe 'secrecy'... 'different art forms of sex'... 'the woman's lack of expressing her 'utter distaste' towards the man's 'macabre' way/sense of having 'sex', as a token of 'gratitude' in lieu of 'being handsomely paid'...etc ?).. I really dunno the 'reason' BUT what I do know is:

Prostitutes, do I hold in 'high esteem', for the very sole (and 'simple') reason that they do not cause any harm to the society. They only cause 'harm' to their very own selves.

One 'final' point:

It's because of 'prostitutes' (or 'men patronizing prostitutes') that millions of 'women' from 'morally & ethically' richer backgrounds stay untouched (not raped) till today, in several countries (and 'societies') of this world.

I (and am sure that many more) express my sincere 'gratitude' towards 'those' ladies ('prostitutes') who have been instrumental in 'channelizing' the 'amorous' intentions of 'studs'.. harnessing their 'human' (or is it 'inhuman'?) needs.. holding 'them' at 'bay'....

To quote one...Ewwwwwwww
Sorry I don't mess with the missionary man

"Californiacation"/Christian Fornication?
How did "Weird Al miss this one? I may play with that one

"Missionary Man"

Well I was born an original sinner.
I was borne from original sin.
And if I had a dollar bill
For all the things I've done
There'd be a mountain of money
Piled up to my chin...

My mother told me good
My mother told me strong.
She said "be true to yourself
And you can't go wrong."
"But there's just one thing
That you must understand."
"You can fool with your brother -
But NOT missionary man."

~Eurythmics
Ok..the last line is "Don't mess with the missionary man"
Hey I was fairly polite

Funny but great response from you Kaustuv. Would you swear by any sacred thing that you never went down town the red light street, how did you end your essay providing the answers you earlier said you didnt know? lol, dont mind my humour!!. I trust you as always

But you and I know its utopian

I 'know' you trust me 'my friend'! After all, it's 'trust' that has kept this world from 'falling apart'

'Usually' I don't 'swear' for the 'only' reason that I would find it 'arduous' to 'swear' upon something else to 'support' my 'swear' of the 'present' issue & this 'nesting' would carry on and on and on and on... (For 'those' who are familiar with the Art of Computer Programming With a Language like C/C++/Java, it's something similar to recursion... the 'recursive' chains continue unless the 'base criterion' is 'met'!) Am I speaking 'Latin'? (Wish I 'knew')


I'll clarify with the help of an 'example' (just in case you aren't 'one' (a C/C++/Java Programmer)):

Suppose: I swear upon 'my best friend's life' saying: 'Go NORTH, Go SOUTH, Go EAST, Go West - You'll discover that Uchea is the very best!

And then, 'someone' might ask me to 'swear' that whatever I 'said right now' is true. And then will I proceed further saying/swearing:

I swear upon my 'very own life' that the 'person I had in my mind as my best friend was NOT actually my 'best friend' but 'an enemy/an 'able' adversary of my 'best friend'!


Can 'you' see the level of complication/complexity that 'these' 'nested' swearing bring forth? Trust me - Recursion (nested OR otherwise) is far 'less' complex and complicated!


The final point ('Panting'):

I appreciate your 'humor' I won't 'swear' (reasons I have explained above) I would say, look into the eyes of a prostitute and 'you' will 'know' it all.

As 'they' say: The best and the most beautiful things in this world, can neither be 'seen' nor 'touched'.. 'They' can 'only' be 'felt' by the 'heart' (Of course, if I possess 'one' such 'heart')!

'Prostitutes', my friend, are devoid of 'hypocrisy'.. You may take my 'word' for it. And merely to 'ensure' that none tend to draw the incorrect conclusion, allow me to emphasize this: All prostitutes are devoid of hypocrisy..BUT All those who are devoid of hypocrisy, are NOT necessarily prostitutes!

I think some people need to understand men and women have different biology.
Sex for the purpose of procreation as far as a man in concerned begins and ends in sex. It is the woman's body that continues the act of procreation after the sex is over. Ok, biology lesson has ended, now let's apply our lesson to real life: Men seek prostitutes for this biological urge, call it for sex or for procreation, for them it is the same thing and it is safe to say it is purely sex which they are paying for.

Ya, I understand. You didnt miss logic and critical thinking class nor your computer class. You ve won the 'debate'

It's You who won (Not me!)

No. Actually, farming is the oldest profession. I know, you've heard that prostitution is and everybody repeats it like parrots but it isn't true. The common image of prostitutes as a special group of outcasts walking the streets may not have arisen until the Victorian era, when health officials blamed them for the spread of venereal diseases.
"It's the oldest profession" saying was appropriated by prostitutes to justify their illegal activities.
The originator of the phrase “the world’s oldest profession” was Rudyard Kipling. His 1888 story about a prostitute begins, “Lalun is a member of the most ancient profession in the world.” As progressives debated how to deal with prostitution in the United States in the early 1900s, medical professionals soon began to cite (and misquote) Kipling, and the phrase took on a life of its own.


As for why, to repeat another's post: convenience.

Men love sex.
That's why the sex industry is a billion dollar business.

Are you calling me "some people" Estelle?...lmao!!...OR, are you saying all men are pigs...OR,,,both?

HEY! I resemble that remark!

Only in the nicest way ...I love bacon .Hope you are high and dry Joe!...The rains are devastating your state!...

You said all men are pigs not me...there you go putting words into my mouth once again.

For men procreation and sex are the same thing, so if you know biology then you know men wanting sex is natural. Prostitutes provide this service to men without all the stuff that normally comes after sex/procreation, because those things are women's issues and men don't really want to deal with that just for sex. So, they'd rather pay for just sex.

So, if a woman uses birth control to avoid becoming pregnant, she can't have sex just for the enjoyment? A woman can't have sex without procreation?
