Well.

[Joelle.]

Yes, the same with drugs within reason. People do it regardless so it can't be any worse if it does become legal.

i like your way of thinking.

[Jack_]

Yes. Then it can be regulated. And if people want to pay for sex, that's their choice.

[Jords]

No.

[Omah]

No

[Shaun]

Yeah... I just don't understand why it's such an issue... if it's regulated and trafficking is eradicated then it's completely fine. It's two adults exchanging goods.

Making it illegal takes it down very dark and untraceable routes, and we're facing smuggling, drug addiction (prostituting themselves to feed the habit) and rape.

Just another excuse to say "look at how better Europe are than us", really.

..prostitution has always been been described as 'the oldest profession', so it's not going to go away or anything..after the Peter Sutcliffe murders and more recently, the 5 females that were murdered in Ipswich, I think so much more should be done to protect these ladies...it's ok saying, oh these are bad people that do these things and put them in prison etc..but that does nothing to protect them from another bad person coming along and harming them...to me, that's just ignoring the situation and in way, treating them just as badly because not helping to make their environment safer doesn't put much value on their lives....

Exactly this.

[Ramsay]

Yes

[Ramsay]

The fact its illegal is just silly...its going to go down no matter what..like shaun said, at least if its legalised the trafficking will be gone

[Ammi]

..yeah, I agree..and especially with child prostitution Karl..

[Ramsay]

Well yeah, child prostitution should be illegal no matter what

[Ammi]

..also, I know the government could argue how difficult it would be to protect them because these ladies put themselves in danger by the very nature of what they do..but then, they could say the same about female police officers and yet if they were constantly the targets for rape, violence, murder etc, the way that prostitutes are, then I would imagine that procedures and steps to protect them more would be addressed as a priority...I understand that it would be hard to remove all dangers involved in prostitution but these ladies don’t seem to be given any priority whatsoever and yet they are constant victims of violence...

[AnnieK]

If it were legalised it removes the seediness of the profession, the ladies come out of the shadows as it were and stop having to put themselves in danger by going in cars, down dodgy black alleys etc and therefore would immediately become safer.

[Ninastar]

yeah, if it's safe.

Of course it should, but there should be minimum standards for hotness.

Get you with your BB audition process insider knowledge.

[joeysteele]

It isn't something I personally approve of but I would say it should be,yes.
It may better protect the women who engage in it and so be a great deal safer,also removing the harrassment too of them by the Police.

[GypsyGoth]

Being illegal it only benefits criminals. So yep I think it should be made legal.

it should be legalized but I do not think that will change anything for the better. There will still be 'pimps' who run the business and the same type of drug use. Look at the porn industry
