    Advantages Advantages Controlled and taxed

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Society is not there yet ...

    Warning: This is a long dialogue on a complex issue. If you feel it would be more manageable in 2 parts then please comment and let me know and I'll split it up ... I think it's worth reading - enter ye open minded ones ... The root of any debate around the legalisation or practice of prostitution must come from the judgement of sex by our society. Many of the people who have written opinions on this topic have made statements about prostitution being 'wrong', that it is morally incorrect and that their belief in God or their religion have led them to judge prostitution negatively. My first ... more

    Advantages Advantages Safer for prostitutes

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Encourages women to do it?

    .........Buys herself bread and cloth (Shakespeare Othello 4.1.93) When reading this question, two initial thoughts sprang to mind. Firstly, would Mutley rip my review apart like my previous two debates, secondly, who are we to deny women perhaps their only chance of earning their crust? I am quite divided on the issue really and every time I think I've made a conclusive decision, my thoughts swing the other way. Interestingly I read an article not long ago written by a professional 'escort' who's ambition throughout life was to become a prostitute. For most women (and men I suppose) this ... more

    Advantages Advantages Pro-Creation

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Health risks - Not regulated at all

    Should prostitution be legalized? ----------------------------------------​- There are three certainties in life and that are Tax, Death, and guys wanting to pro-create. In that order as well, I must state. Your more likely to be paying tax before any form of fornication; unless your in one of the deprived areas that gets a frequented 'secret millionaire' visit, and therefore you wouldn't of paid tax, neon several generations, since digitalization. - So prostitution is big business where there are notable systematic failures across their mundane existences. You can't blame these areas whereby a ... more

    Advantages Advantages Protection of vulnerable individuals

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Will not solve all the problems

    The horrific events in Ipswich have been an all too tragic reminder of how our moralistic and irresponsible attitude to the reality of prostitution in the UK leads to the deaths of innocent young women who through adverse social circumstances (or sometimes choice) have to risk their lives to make a living. The key to the problem as with drugs (and very often the two are linked) lies with the illegality. Just as the prohibition of drugs does little to help the huge drug problem in society and in fact does a huge amount to worsen it by putting money into the hands of criminals, the illegal ... more

    The second oldest profession in the world is accountancy and some would argue that it is equally as immoral. Accountants would probably say that they are amoral not immoral. Legalisation of prostitution is a sticky issue due to the very nature of the product being sold which is intimate time with another human being for money. This could in some quarters be called slavery but that is really going a bit far. Prostitution exists in all areas of our society from run down council estates, to the most elite echelons of high society. It will never be stopped by any legislation, though this is not a ... more

    Suppose: I am driving home in my BMW. It's just after ten in the morning and I'm feeling pretty good about life. As I glance in the car mirror I can't help but say to myself, "Hey, you're looking great!". And so I should be. My clothes are from the very best stores - smart, stylish and yet sexy and I put a lot of effort into the way I look. My personal trainer helps keep my body toned and supple and, of course, I frequent only the best hair stylist in town. I really don't think I could look or feel much better. Should be home soon, back to my apartment in the London Docklands, a very good ... more

    Those of you who know me know that I like a good, healthy debate. Usually I see both sides of the arguement but in this case I have a very definate opinion. And you ain't going to like it. Recent calls for the legalisation of Prostitution have shocked and dismayed me. Are we really recommending making the selling of sex an acceptable act? Do we really see Prostitution a way of earning a living. Wouldn't this mean that you would have to pay tax? And if you pay tax, then doesn't that mean you have a career? A profession? So from being an illegal practise it turns into a legal profession. I can ... more

    ~ ~ The question we are being asked to consider in our opinions on this topic is whether or not we consider it a good idea for the Government to legalise prostitution. Whether it should be looked upon as a legitimate profession, and no longer made an offence in law, for which a person can be prosecuted in the Courts. Before I get into the 'pros' and cons of this debate, (sorry about the pun, I couldn’t resist it) I think it is worthwhile to first of all look at prostitution and prostitutes, in order to realise just exactly what we are talking about here. Because there are many different ... more

    There was a time when people seemed to be pleased with what they were given. People seemed to go out, meet friends, socialise, date and quickly fall into the “serious relationship” category. However, now it seems people are satisfied with paying for a prostitute. Now before you start with the hate mail, I’m not saying I am against prostitution, I just want to try and explore every aspect of the “Job”. In the dictionary a prostitute is said to be “A person who offers sexual intercourse for payment, offer oneself for unworthy purposes.” I have got good ... more
