The hookers in Amsterdam and the Netherlands are not required to get an STD check. Trust me on that. And I have had sex with prostitutes in Germany, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, and Austria, Czech Republic. And I have always used a condom. And you know what? No STD. Not once. And none of the girls are made to take and STD test. Except for in Austria, I think? Austria was expensive. Actually now I remember in Austria the hookers are requiered to take an HIV test every month. When you have sex with a prostitute you have to use your head. Look at her and look closely. Talk with her somewhat to get to know her-that'll help for a lower price-and you'll know what type of girl you are having sex with. Remember that the majority of girls are like you. They don't want to get a disease. If a girl offers bareback bj's don't take it. I remember in Germany that was always a problem. The hookers said they didn't like the taste of latex in their mouths. AAnd if she is offering you bareback sex don't take it it means she probably has something nasty.

But what I'm trying to say is that yes it should be legal and condoms should be readily available. The condoms will prevent the majority of the disease transmission. Like roughly 99.97% of the time the condom will protect you from viral and bacteria disease. But everynow and then a bacteria might sneak in. And you'll get something that can be easily treated with antibiotics.
And the first time I had sex with a "normal" girl I ended up getting chlamydia.
So really this stigma that hookers are invested with disease is a lie. Maybe streetwalkers yes, but turn it into something like that of where its legal. And stds won't be so common.

I wasn't meaning to imply that std's was a serious outbreak among prostitutes. However the risk is still higher than normal.

Yes its higher. why wouldn't it be? But thats where condoms come into play. Condoms seriously protect you from disease.
 
On one hand I agree on the other I don't.

I agree because I'm a father. I agree also because I don't always try to offend other peoples sensibilities.

I don't agree because I think that hiding things from kids just hurts the kids in the long run, and in today's day and age it's damn near impossible for children to not know about sex by 8-10 years old. Heck at 6-7 years old I was playing truth or dare and seeing girl's bodies. Didn't know what the heck I was doing...just knew that others liked me for it. (that whole acceptance thing) So why not just start teach them about sex when they start asking about it? Which is surprisingly young. :3oops: :p I think that doing so would make them more responsible about it and not make it so taboo...and we all know how teenagers react to things that are taboo.....

I'm not saying don't talk to your kids about sex. Absolutely not. (Though I do think that should be a parent thing, not a school thing, save for in the most basic biological and safety ways).

I'm just saying don't try and glamorize it. Becoming a prostitute shouldn't be something you urge or suggest or glamerize to your kids as a career path. It shouldn't be made out to be an acceptable and reasonable goal to grow up and become a prostitute. When talking about the birds and the bee's suggesting you can possibly just save up your allowance to buy a hooker for your first time shouldn't be a standard alternative.

I'm not saying don't make them aware of things, I was meaning more that we as a society should legalize it but in doing so we can't allow it to continue down the slippery slope from legalization to legitimization
 
Interesting.. Three responders say that prostitution should remain illegal, yet they have nothing to say.
America, lets enter the 20th century and leave the 16th century.
Tax and regulate prostitution, as the civilized countries do.
Follow the example and leadership of Nevada.

:applaud

I always enjoy a trip that takes me from Verdi to Wendover, or vice-versa!
 
It should absolutely be legalized. But only brothel prostitution, or other ones that have an establishment. Street prostitution is too dangerous.
 
One reason to keep drugs, prostitution illegal is the employment of 500,000 policemen, DAs, judges, wardens, lawyers, clerks, guards, inn-keepers in good stead.
Do we want these 500,000 joining the 500,000 unemployed auto-workers ?
Talk about change.......and exaggeration..:spin:
What a time to be alive and still kicking.:mrgreen:
 
Can't say i like prostitution but i support the legalization to combat the slavery that is street prostitution. Legalization would reduce that significantly.
 
Morally yes. Realistically speaking? No.
 
Morally yes. Realistically speaking? No.

If you want to bring morals into law, then by keeping it illegal you are forcing innocent women into the trade who cannot get out because the law views them as criminals instead of victims, thus enpowering the pimps to do whatever the hell they want.

Would you please ****ing read what I said and understand. :roll:

"Realistically speaking? No."

Do I have to break that down and explain it for you???
 
All so-called "victimless crimes" should ideally be legal, unregulated, and untaxed.

I ****ing read that mate. You said morally as well. Morals have a place in the law and sometimes what seems wrong to you isn't wrong at all. Morally the prostitution should be legal and regulated. So piss off with your bad attitude.
 
I ****ing read that mate.

Then reading comprehension is not your forte'.

You said morally as well.

No I did not. I said it is morally wrong. Since morals are subjective, it was not a statement of fact, but my opinion.

Has absolutly nothing to do with my statement.

Bad attitude? You assume I said something I did not and accused me of supporting pimps etc.

Your statement was moronic and does not apply at all.

Again I ask what part of this comment do you need explained to you?

"Realistically speaking? No."

I wouldn't want to see it legalized and then in some way glamorized or pushed as a mainstream thing. Not saying pass legislation against such, but I would hope (and think) it'll be treated like sex shops, strip clubs, etc in regards to general community acceptance and forms of advertising/pervasiveness in the culture than something more "legitimate".

I think that each town/city already has the zoning authority to make sure that these type "businesses" would be kept away from schools, playgrounds, parks, etc & put in a centralized area for adult only type recreation. Let's leave it up to the local people to make up their own minds & not compel everyone to abide by the puritanical beliefs of what may be a minority.
