This once again depends in which society/culture you're brought up in. The 'Who' is a responsible parent. Its a parent's duty and right in many cultures to stop someone from making a mistake knowingly (entering the profession of prostitution). In many cultures, there is no questions asked who the father or mother is to stop the children from wrong doings. But that is a whole different thread about 'Culture' in itself.

Please don't be angry with me because I want better for you or my daughter. If you are happy with this profession, who am I to tell you not to do it. If my daughter was happy doing the same who am I to tell her not to do it. If I want better for the both of you, who is anyone to tell me I shouldn't want this?
In other words...its their way of saying and actually make you 'go eff yourself'

And again you rely on logical fallacy to make an argument. You have no facts to support your advocacy of prohibition of prostitution, so you've spent most of your time engaging in ad hominem attacks and declaring crowning yourself royalty on what "the depths of a woman" constitutes and what demonstrates meaningful sex. If you had facts on your side, it is reasonable to believe you would rely on facts instead of logical fallacy.
Most men can't afford a ten minute bad blow-job from a cross-eyed syphilitic whore in anything expect a society in total breakdown.

Fair enough. I think we agree on a lot more than you realize, but if you are keying on the "hard-wired," I can make it irrelavent.
Suppose I'm not hard-wired, but I just happen to enjoy fast cars, motorcycles, lean adventurous women, guns, barbeque, swimming pools, music, etc., and through my travels and relationships with women, I have found a number of women that enjoyed the same things, and eventually married one, and maybe occasionally we enjoy hiring a prostitute, or maybe just a few sexy guys and girls to cater a party we're throwing. We hire "entertainers," not because we are hard-wired, or even socially programmed, but just because we made the conscious choice to do so, and the entertainers are people we know that are also educated, successful, and have made the choice to work as an entertainer...... why would it be anyone's business but the individuals involved? Why would there need to be social norms, religious idealogies, and laws prohibiting it?
Name one time in the history of man that there wasn't slaves for money or sex ? It is abolished. But it wasn't impossible. Slavery that is

I love the fact that you've ignored the demonstrable content I most obviously put in this thread that handily demonstrated a decrease in rape and STD's where prohibition of prostitution does not exist and now pretend that demonstrable content doesn't exist. It exists and is there for you to respond to at any time.. Instead you have declined to do so.

There is no evidence of sexual trade prior to civilisation. Sex as a commodity is a modern invention.

So now the frail, physical body = the eternal soul? I don't understand why some people are so defensive about their bodies. Like if its some holy vessel that must remain pure and untouched. Literally, you are a bag of meat. Living and aware, yes. But still a bag of meat. This goes for everyone. And being penetrated for money doesn't mean you lose your "soul".

Where are the records that indicate this as being fact? As far as I understand it, that sort of recorded history would have only began with civilization.
We've been "civilized" for thousands of years, I hardly call that modern.
