Is the Approach of the Nordic model of prostitution state misandry?

[Anonymous]

In many countries, to combat drug trafficking, drug trafficking is criminalized and drug use is not criminalized.

However, the approach to the Nordic model of prostitution, criminalizes the consumer for being a man, and does not criminalize the distributor because they are women who pretend to be victims.

This Approach was obviously imposed by a woman, who in turn wants to ban prostitution because she wants to force men to spend their money and time on dates, marriages and women.

Yes, it victimizes men who are just paying for a service. The women are soliciting. It's how they get their income.

I don't see why prostitution is illegal in the first place. It's just like any other service industry. There are lots of legal businesses that are way less moral than prostitution.

It could be regulated and taxed.
It would protect prostituted by making it possible to report abuse to police.
It would help to eliminate sex trafficking.

Thanks for the MHO.

Everytime I hear about prostitution, I wonder how many people there are who use them as an outlet so they don't feel the need to turn to rape.

Honestly, making prostitution illegal I think hurts women the most. It turns someone who maybe is in an emergency as a criminal and demonizes men who are unable to satisfy their human need through traditional means.

Congratulations on winning the 'This is way too far fetched to be a real question' award.

As the first winner of this new award show would you like to share some words with the fans?

Yes, my words are "prostitution is a way to liberate a man, and teach him not to spend money and time on dates and marriages".

[reds-noro]

So being against a highly controversial business does not qualify? I'm not against the sex work industry, but if you are delusional enough to make up so much crap you need to give yourself a reality check.

This model is not balanced. In addition it is not clear to me why sexual services should be criminalized for either party involved.

In Switzerland we also have sex therapeutists for disabled people or for older people (almost exclusively men) who are "absolute beginners". I think that's helpful for some people to fulfill their potential as human beings.

It would be better to criminalise prostitutes and decriminalise the "buyer", because the "buyer" already had his money taken, and probably also caught whatever diseases she had obtained from her job.
