Exactly, you guys that want to ban everything you think is disgusting just can't see the consequences. Here's a hint, blackmarket.

You guys should watch the HBO show 'Cathouse' about a legal brothel in Nevada. Then watch another HBO documentary called 'Atlantic City Hookers'. Compare the two situations then answer this question; If prostitution must exist, which is the better way of handling it? Just make sure your parents don't catch you up after your bedtime watching HBO.

Disregarding all econcomic arguments, I personally just find it disgusting and I am glad that it is illegal for that very reason.

I'm sorry but your post disgusts me.

But unlike you, I would rather ignore your disgusting lack of reasoning than to ever try and legislate my morality on you and somehow try and prevent you from behaving in such a disgusting way just so I can feel better about myself.

Krunky, you speak of this as if you're listed on the the top ten sexiest men alive. Give it a rest, I couldn't care less if prostitution exists or not. No harm is ever done, it's the same type of service that you pay someone to wash your car, mow your freaking lawn, give you a massage (albeit with happy endings :D). You pay for a service, that in itself is never wrong.

All you guys that are hinging on the fake morality, give it a rest too. Prostitution has been around since the dawn of time, and will be here after you and your BS are long gone.

You condemn prostitution, yet you embrace pornography (alright, so "some" of you will deny that you even like pornography). You condemn prostitution, yet ignore other issues that are far more dangerous and damaging to society. Alcoholism, gambling, etc... aren't exactly on the high moral road. Get off your moral high horse, use your goody two shoes to travel the world and open your eyes to what it has to offer and perhaps you'll see things differently.

Because you have it backwards.

Why should sandwiches be legal? Why should television be legal?

Because paying to get a sandwich is not intrinsically immoral, paying to get p*ssy is.

Why would you want to legalize disgusting behavior?

Immoral by your standards?
And your stupid ass Bible thumping idiot flunkies that must beleive in some idiotic idea of some holy ghost and heaven?

I dont freakign think so...

Seperation of Church and State... not everyone is a moronic Bible thumping R tard..

Go to Europe.. and they were far more religious than most of our country and its legal and regulated..

Its not up to you people to tell others whats right and wrong to do with thier bodies..
or whom the can or cannot do it with..

If Lonely or Unsatisfied Joe wants to pay for a blow job who the hell are you to say he cant?

We all know prostitution exists, but at least keep underground where the filthy people who support it belong as well.

yah if by filthy people you mean Dr.s, Attorneys, Councilmen... high profile business owners.. Movie and Music stars.. etc etc etc..

having known men that do this you would be VERY surprised at whom is actually doing it...

Very high placed officials and business men.. with lots to lose...

This is not the old game of streetwalkers and a quicky in the back of a chevy...
these guys blow 1000s of bucks for a roll in the hay..

You just made a hell of a lot of noise, but nothing came out.

"No harm is done" is a load of crap.

There is no "fake morality" in my arguments, it's all real. Also, your argument of it existing since the "dawn of time" is idiotic at BEST. That does not make it right, any more than any other tradition is good or sound. Tradition is a ridiculous way to back anything up.

I never said I supported pornography, either. I never said I ignored alcoholism or gambling, it's simply not what THIS ARGUMENT is about, is it?

You sound like you're just a raving lunatic.

Get some good arguments like 3chordcharlie or Flyback, and then come back. They actually had my attention.

WOW! You've got my attention, but not because I'm interested in your side... You've got my attention now, because you're an F-ING MORON.

READ BACKWARDS A BIT, and you'd realize I don't fit your christian stereotype.

I wasn't going to bring this up, but now I have to.

I'm an atheist. I hate organized religion. I hate fascism. I'm part of AFA. I'm a HARDCORE supporter of gay rights, despite being straight. I'm anti-nationalism, anti-imperialism, anti-sheeple and anti-racism.

I'm also anti-prostitution. BOO FREEKING HOO, so I don't support government green-lighted solicitation of sex. Did I insult anyone here because they disagree with me? No sir. But I'm going to go ahead and insult you, because you're an idiot.

Now kindly, asshole. GTFO.

Hi, I'm nakedfrog, and I approve of prostitution

Im not surprised here.


Anymore?

Is it the bunny?

Seriously, is it because of the bunny?
Or are you saying I'm unable to get laid based on my appearance?
Or because I look like a hippie or something?

Thats exactly my point... The already are..
Good old Joe next door... nice quiet guy with a wife and 3 kids...
Secretly seeing 600 dollar an hour call girls on the side...

And just FYI... some of the most publically ANTI types are the ones seeing the girls behind everyones backs.. Funny that way.

haha, here we go.

You're actually going to defend her position? Here's what I say to suburban and ghetto prostitutes. GET A REAL JOB.

It's pathetic and disgusting, and if they can't figure out any way to make money besides using their body, then they should probably say hello to Mr. Natural Selection.

This is coming from a "dirty liberal" too. Prostitution is pathetic, so is stripping.

Oh, and lastly, I'm getting plenty, from my respectable hard working fiancee.

She's working in the service industry, why should it be illegal?

Everything is legal except that which has been deemed ILLEGAL. Your thinking is backwards.

I never said I supported pornography, either. I never said I ignored alcoholism or gambling, it's simply not what THIS ARGUMENT is about, is it?
WTF are you talking about, was I even talking to you? This whole argument is about what's moral and what's not, what's more damaging to society, why are certain activities are deemed "illicit"...
You sound like you're just a raving lunatic.
Hahahahhaa... uh huh... Do you have a mirror?

Actually, I've dismissed you as a raving idiot long ago. But now, you've had my attention.

Seriously, who are you to pass judgments on others? Who gave you that right? You and your bible? Your post just further affirm of my opinion regarding the type of people that would vehemently deny others of their personal rights. It's their bodies, they should have a choice to do what they want with it as long as it doesn't infringe on your rights or safety.

Unless it's your daughter or *gasp* wife, you should have no say in the matter. You know what else I find that's funny? Those that toot the loudest horn are usually guilty of the same offense, if not worse.

Alright man, you're like 13 years old but I'll throw you one last piece of my mind before I forget this conversation between us happened.

I'm not for controlling people's lives. I would never take away the right to play violent video games or whatever and I'm all for personal freedoms. I'm sure you don't support VIOLENCE, that was a typo on your part, correct? But I'm not going to support LEGALIZATION of prostitution.

I'm not exactly happy that it's outlawed completely, in fact I'm actually a bit more curious as to why it IS completely outlawed due to the REAL discussion I had with the other guys here. That was before you flew off the handle, and I responded in kind.

That being said, I'm done here.

I actually came away from this discussion with a piece of understanding of why the others here are not quick to ban prostitution.

But you? You're not even trying to argue here, you're just throwing out insults. I'm sure you're trying to come off as "revolutionary" and "open minded" but you're not. You just sound childish.

The one argument that had ANY sort of relevance from you was "who are you to judge what a man and woman do behind closed doors?", but that has already been said to me, and far more eloquently. Because of that eloquence, I actually got what they were saying, and rethought my side. Good attempt at shabbily rehashing an old argument, though.

Like I said before, come back with you're own, REAL arguments.

You know when you see a picture of a sexual offender and you think to yourself "wow, big surprise here." It's kind of the same thing.

Prostitution is only illegal in areas the Christian-right has a choke-hold on the legislature.

Sex is hard-coded into our genetics. Marriage, buying flowers and candy, talking about feelings and commitment...is not part of our genetics.

Why do Americans have such an ass-backwards way of dealing with human sexuality?

I'd rather have those police man-hours working unsolved murders, arresting drunk drivers, etc. Something that will save lives, not fine a prostitute who will go back to her job the very next day.

Our legal system is overtaxed as it is, and you guys want to waste taxpayer dollars tracking down prostitutes for catch-and-release?

Man, there are some sexually repressed fascists in this thread.

"I despise something, ergo it should be made illegal. I'd never do it, so why should anyone else be allowed to do it?"

And then manowar pretty much states that his position makes no logical sense when compared to his overall position on freedoms, but he defends it anyway. Sounds like a personal issue. More info?

Says who?

Exactly. If she is a consenting adult, then in my opinion there's no crime and nothing morally wrong.

It is wrong to legislate morality for its own sake. Unless there is a clear victim, there should be no crime.
