The people who go to hookers know what they are after. The hookers know what they are selling. Seems pretty victimless to me if you take out all the hypothetical "drugged in to submission", "pimped unwillingingly", assorted other associated criminal acts that accompany an illegal activity.

Legal brothels do well, create lots of tax dollars, are regulated and the girls are well tested and medicated if necessary, heck the girls have mandatory health care as part of the employee package.

Like weed: legalize it, tax it, regulate it.

It is a victimless crime until the drug issue becomes involved.....but that is a given..

The drug issue really has little to do with the prostitution bit. And why is doing porn flicks legal yet prostitution isn't? It's essentially the same thing, you're paying people to screw. Just because they are both "contracted models" hardly makes a difference.

In Nevada where the girls get put into houses, there's no pimps, the money is all handled before hand, the girls are tested, have a place to sleep and many enjoy it, not to mention a lot of the house madams have strict rules on drugs.

The sleezy side people think of when prostitution comes to mind is pimps and girls drugged out so that they don't know what's going on, but that's not really what the discussion is. It's the worlds oldest profession, a lot of money goes towards it now, if it were regulated and legalized more would come in, the only industry I think that would feel threatened would be strippers, hell, if you're a single guy going to blow a couple hundred at a strip club or go to a brothel, get fed a couple free drinks and pick a girl to bang that's a complete night.

well you proved my point...IT IS legal in my mind...until the drug issue comes into the picture..I know it is seperate issue but (unfortuately) the government looks at it as the same issue....

I totally agree with you CCI... but the problem with that is that we have lived with our "morals" for too many years that it WILL NOT work here...
