But you can never be sure of that as it is not legal in the uk. Even I cannot be sure it is a good idea by citing the netherlands. The benefits could outweigh the negative aspects or vice versa, nobody knows for sure until they try it.

Its personal choice. End of story. Look down on them all you want , but if they want to open their legs in exchange for a client opening their wallets...well , its not murder or assault. If done right , its not harming anybody. Therefore , let them do with their own bodies what they bloody well please.

Again , personal choice.

I cant see much problem in legalising prostitution, it goes on anyway. As we type they will be shagging in some room with a bloke who has fifty quid spare or perhaps a touch more cash for some oral or other sexual fantasy. If it was legalised it would be a lot safer for the prostitute and her customer.

Its funny how sex is just wanking with no hands Thats what my best mate says, well basically he aint getting any at the mo

Time for a Bill Hicks quote...

“Here is my final point. About drugs, about alcohol, about pornography and smoking and everything else. What business is it of yours what I do, read, buy, see, say, think, who I ****, what I take into my body - as long as I do not harm another human being on this planet?”

I agree.

If a chainsmoking alchy drugged upto the eyeballs walks up to a prostitute waving a bunch of twenty pound notes in front of her, he may give her too much money by mistake and fail to make his dick rise at the critical moment, throw up on the floor and fall fast asleep while prostitute makes a quick exit via the back door

Im not sure was that an argument for or against a particular side or if it was just for cheap laughs. If it was for cheap laughs , well , you earned them .

[miracles]

I think Prostitution is disgustine,
but if people choose to live their lives as prostitutues then let them.
I think the whole idea of 'Selling your body' is horrible.
Personally, I wouldn't ever encourage prostitution.

[Yes , that was for cheap laughs too]

Another argument just came into my head. Porno. For those against prostitution , is there an exception for posing nude so some lads can have a wank to your pics? Isint that selling your body?

Dont you think that relates quiet closely to prostitution?

I am not against prostitution I would prefer to see it legalised and I am very sure that anyone participating will also have an affinity for frequenting sex shops and buying porn dvds/mags and sex toys. It is all part of the equasion, a weakness that many desperate men have, Hugh Grant being one of them. He just wasnt getting what he wanted at home

Some consider prostitutes to be low life and imoral and dirty whatever.....And so and so on.

What is worse than a prostitute who gives out sex for money. In my book what is lower than prostitution are the one night stand merchants who do it like two dog that have just met in the street a complete stranger for nothing exept a drink and a pkt of crisps.

I bet a lot of those merchants probably look down on prostitution. They shouldn't.....As they are far worse.

On balance I think it would make sense to leglise it as long as it was properly controlled and monitored in order to weed out any abuse and girls being forced into the game. You can never get rid of abuse but I think making it legal would reduce the abuse considerably..

The bottom line is we may look down on others for what ever reason but in a free society of which our poltitions boast we are supposed to have then people should have a free choice of how they live there lives as long as their life style does not infringe others rights......

It is wrong and snobbish to claim either the girls or the men are dirty and bad. They are all simply human with human desires. A man or woman may get old but that does not mean their sex drive also gets old. To label any age group as dirty old men or women is just ignorant ageism.......All ages have a right to sexual instincts as unpalatable as it may seem to younger people sexual feeling do not alway diminish with age.

What is still needed in this control freak world is tolorence to the choices that people make instead of what is more often than not just a snobbish stand offish condemnation of people with sexual life styles different to their own.


Society has accepted the rights of different sexualities and agrees all should be repected to have and practice their different sexualities and yet the sexual tastes and appetites of people wanting to relieve there sexual feeling in the way they want is still looked down in in a typical British hypocrytical way.......

I dont think prostatution should become legal.. i dont think its right but i certainly dont look down on them. Imagine how hard there life must be for anyone to go as low as prostatution? And quite frankly i pity anyone who actually takes plesure from a prostatute i think there sick. I feel so sorry for them children as younge as 9 are getting involved in prostation. I think the goverment should try to stop it and try to get anyone involved in prostatution back on their feet so they can start living a happy life. They must feel so insicure and frightened. x

Rubbish. One night stands are from two people who have just met and have a genuine interest in eachother. A prostitute just has sex with whoever because if they don't they won't get paid. People who have one night stands have a real job and yes they usually end up regretting it the next morning but at the time it seems like the right thing to do, and nobody is forcing anybody to have sex or feeling pressured into it for money.

you have made some very good points in that post; well done. I have to agree that prostitution is a disgusting way to make a living; many of the girls being run by pimps and not receiving much after the pimps take their large cut of their hard earned money for a job with many dangers.

imagine being a prostitute and standing on some street corner around midnight; wearing some tarty/sleazy clothing to attract a customer. suddenly a car pulls over towards you and the man winds the window down and you approach him; saying something like (fancy a good time mister?) he will reply (how much) then you say the price and if he agrees; in the car you get. anything can happen to a defenseless prostitute all alone with a strange man in a car in the middle of the night. many don't even get paid for their services; and some get beaten up or even killed; after meeting the wrong customer. also there are plenty of sexually transmitted diseases; (not to mention) aids & h.i.v. It's a risky business for the prostitute and something needs to be done to change that.

if prostitution was legalised; I would imagine that it would be (18) years or higher only. I understand that a (16) year old girl can legally have sex with anybody they choose at any legal age; whether the same age or much older; male or female (whatever takes her fancy like) but I still feel that (16) is still way too young for that kind of business. also you are still in your parents care until you are (18) and I'm sure most parents would be dead-set against it anyway. I know I certainly would if it was my daughter or even my neice.

the comment you made about a (9) year old standing on a street corner selling herself for money is really disgusting and damn illegal. you couldn't even call her jail-bait; as any potential customer could easily see she is under age.

the real reason girls turn to prostitution is because of three main reasons;
1. desperation for money
2. drugs
3. mixing with the wrong crowd/meeting a pimp being the worst.

just because she has a pimp; doesn't mean that she is any safer. most pimps don't look after their girls anyway; even though they say they will and the unfortunate victim believes him. drugs/money/wrong crowd; can be three good reasons for a girl to turn to prostitution. anything which can prevent those three things from occuring can certainly lessen the amount of prostitutes walking our streets and living in danger. legalising it could help; but like you say, we'd all feel better if they didn't have to do it in the first place.

LOL Billy.

Re the one night stand thing. I have had one night stands where We have not known each others names in the morning. It was what it was. Sex. We both wanted some fun without the pressure of a relationship. We were safe so who were we hurting?

I have also had a one night stand that ended up in a 10 year relationship. That would not have happened if it was not for the one night stand.

Oooh, I'm getting very excited at the discovery of another Bill Hicks fan on the forum. There's always time for a Bill Hicks quote.

I miss Bill

Regarding prostitution - yes, it should be legalised, to provide protection to the prostitutes. The recent trial of Steven Wright is a case in point.

Is that not precisely why it should be legalised - so that there could be some control over it? Obviously, it wouldn't stop illegal prostitution, but it might a step in the right direction.

[Christina]

^
Then people that go to see the prostatues wont be worried atall.. they know that they cannot be prosicuted (sp.) so therefor it means they can take advantage of the girls even more. I dont see how allowing children as younge as 9 to be prostatues should be made legal. And besides its only legal for people over 16 to have sex anyway (not that they care) x

[Ruth]

I didn't mean it should be legal for children to be prostitutes. I meant that legalising prostitution could actually help stop children being exploited in this way.

And sorry, but I don't see why a man should be prosecuted for sleeping with a prostitute.
