That is only valid if a brothel is out there kidnapping woman and chaining them to the bed.... They don't HAVE to take a customer they don't want to take. No one is forcing them......
If you can't have a discussion without namecalling, you should probably look to one of the other forums or discussion board that don't keep a TOS against it...

Hard times call for desperate measures the woman submits to a dirty animals to copulate with. Because she needs the money to support herself/family it is wrong in everyway. It is even against our basic nature. The man should be wooing the women through mutual friendship love interactions personally and emotionally/physically.

NOT for some sick form of sex slavery

There should be no other name for someone who pays for a prostitute other than a pig its a fitting name as far as i'm concerned i feel very strongly against the use of money to rape women. Because that is essentially what it is.

The man pays the women to have sex with her the women is obliged to have sex with that man for monetary gain because she needs the money to pay for herself/family financially.



Im against paying money to rape women as well.

But this thread is about prostitution.

There is no obligation for a prostitute in a regulated state. They are safer, have recourse if they are abused, and have the ability to turn someone away.

When it is illegal, the prostitute is in dangerous places, cannot get legal help if needed, and are far more at risk for ACTUAL rape if they turn someone away.

So your saying we should throw morals aside rather than work on them and learn from our mistakes of the past. also who are you to say the “slippery slope” is invalid and never holds any baring, it’s looking at potential problems in the future and preparing for them, I find that a very valid strategy.


Well obviously you have no formal logic training or understand law. The term "Slippery Slope" is a legal term used in a court of law, daily. And if there is one breakdown in the chain anywhere it is deem "invalid logic.

So with that I look to societies that have legalized prostitution for many many years and I see no form of legalized child, or animal prostitution, so your argument is invalid.


Your right I have no legal training but I do have a grasp on logic, with that aside I was pointing out your close mindedness and over use of the words invalid logic. This “slippery slope” label you gave my post is a fancy way of saying you don’t want to agree with me on the possibilities of the future and anything I say has no baring, epic fail on your part. In Thailand sex with children is practically legal and in Washington state sex with animals is legal if I remember correctly, now tell me what is to stop the spread if people don’t come to a moral common ground.


Never mind, it looks as though you have left rather than face reality and real logic. Again epic fail on your part.

But why should YOUR idea of what "should be" define life for the rest of us? Why is YOUR idea of right/wrong define what someone can or cant do with their body?

I ask again, do you believe casual sex should be illegal?

Er, by that logic, all work is slavery, or possibly kidnapping. You might want to rethink that.

There is no rape involved in this, If the woman is out in that street asking people for money in exchange for it, then its not rape...they ask for it. And the part about them being a pig...I don't know, i guess its there decision.

Morality from a catholic point of view....... Prostitution was once a nescessary evil?????? WTF!!!!forums.catholic.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink">catholic sanctioned prostitution . I find nothing wrong with prostitution if said woman or man was clean of std's, verify that thay aren't drug addicts and run their business without outside influences such as pimps. If it is a sovereign consentual decision to allow the sexual act to occur there are no arguments that can be made about legitimacy of the transaction. Simply put, you are the one who makes your decisions and not anybody else. If you can have the decorum of descency adherred to in the public and keep influence away from minors then no harm done because they aren't pressuring their business into someone who normally would not engage in sex with a stranger. If you aren't looking for it then you will not find it type of argument. Also if a married partner was to have sex with a prostitute then it is not the prostitutes fault that they had relations, it is the married agent's fault. The same argument can be brought to the table that gun owners use... Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Plus it is not our job to judge morality period because that is the almighty's job, not ours. So if you have a problem with the notion that prostitution is wrong then that is your problem and if you are scared of prostitution because it might be temptation..... We are the masters of our own faith through our decisions come judgement day and just because you were tempted and resisted then......highmarks for you. I support prostitution in the fact that god give us freewill to make our own mind up and choose our reward in the afterlife and if you go to hell or heaven depends if you can thwart temptation. Temptation tempers the soul and gives it purpose.
I support prostitution and no i am not catholic.

Thats because I had to go home from work and now i'm done with some house duty and sat down to browse for few mins and listen to some of the ranting and whining from people who want prostitution legalized so that they can screw around without having to worry about getting caught.


If your married and your hiring a hooker then that is your own marriage problem, just like smoking. Its legal but not the best choice.


I'm wondering how it's going to appear on the insurance forms.
You know a few years ago in a class I took, there was discussion about whether or not companies should be able to deny health plans to those who were obese and smokers, or to make them pay higher amounts due to the liability to the company of their lifestyle choices.

Funny, I do hard labor for a living, I don't feel insulted. Then again I am not a holy high roller type that looks down my nose at other people either.


Why should a person who has little self-respect for themselves feel entitled to get respect from others? Weren't you ever taught that not everyone is going to like or approve of you? Stop telling others they have to have respect for degenerates who make it dificult for all other women to gain respect. What types of people will you demand I respect next?

I find it hard to believe your from Ontario, since Ontario prostitution laws have been struck down and is legal in Windsor Ontario. In Ontario they are licensed, have health checks, and are protected by police and corporations.

Also recently they have upheld rights for women, in the business only re-enforcing their need to be protected by the law.

Prostitution Legal in Parts of Ontario Canada


A Toronto judge has struck down Canada’s prostitution laws, saying provisions meant to protect women and residential neighbourhoods are endangering sex workers’ lives.

If Justice Susan Himel’s decision stands, prostitutes will be able to communicate freely with customers on the street, conduct business in their homes or brothels and hire bodyguards and accountants without exposing them to the risk of criminal sanctions.

So.........by your logic namecalling is fitting how? You can be concerned and/or opinionated but like it or not prostitution does not = rape and calling people names because you do not agree with them is not right. Why people choose to pay for it or supply the demand for it is irrelevant. Saying that the only reason someone is a prostitute is so they can support themselves or a family is simply not true no matter how you look at it.

You know I wonder what would be the political ramifications if prostitution was legalized and it would no longer seem so unbecoming for members of Congress to get their fix of escort sex in seedy hotels. And while they are at it, no longer would there be an issue of underage pages? Talk about a slippery slope here.

Unless the age of consent was lowered, a legal and regulated industry would have to prove their employees are of the required age, like porn does.

You have to be kidding me. Legalizing prostitution essentially ELIMINATES child prostitution.

Something I have always believed in, however I think all 'legal' prostitutes would have to be over 21 or even 25 because it certainly isnt a decision for the faint hearted. And also there is no reason why it shouldnt be taxed. Also I have often thought some drugs should be legalised but thats a different debate altogether.

Yes, it's service. But don't be so snide as to compare prostitution to hard workers who have learned a skill or carft in order to actually HELP people rather than let a deadbeat who can't get laid for free get off in you.

Well that’s great, the bill to provide them with “protection” and “health screening” if footed by the tax payer. Those services should be provided by the workers or the employer themselves. Thanks for proving me right once again.

Don't be so snide as to assume just because someone decides to pay for it that they can't get it for "free" (no such thing).

Also don't assume women who choose this as a profession don't work hard and don't require certain skills that are indeed learned.
