Why is it illegal though?
As long as they aren’t hurting anyone..
How can you arrest someone for doing it?
Just like smoking marijuana, although that’s becoming legal.
Generally it's stigma, and then situations manufactured to promote more negative opinions.
A lot of sex workers that work willingly have been getting ruined by shit such as the FOSTA-SESTA act which was written to stop sites from hosting stuff that could be related to sex trafficking which only made it harder for sex workers to work safely, and was also a large part of why so many hosters/sites did that "terms/privacy policy has changed" shit a while back, mainly adding in arbitration clauses that waive your right to litigate in court.
So that was pretty damn pointless, other than fucking normal people over and to pad the "See, sex workers are in even more danger" narrative that they directly aggravated.
I only find it stupid because Americans seem to hypersexualize and glorify violence, with many of the "elite" visiting massage parlors that double as sex shops and then selling the "sex work bad" right after.
TL:DR - Conservative societies don't want to admit they have to pay for a lay, go out of the way to make it outright dangerous to participate in, and then partake in paid sex services and hope nobody finds out.
I think that making prostitution legal will eliminate a lot of more concerning issues such as sex trafficking. I've arrested people for prostitution, but I don't agree with the law. I just enforce it. Most men who pay for sex are lonely as hell and sad. They can't get sex in their life due to poor social skills or because they're just unfortunate looking. Maybe they have a disability. Sex is one of life's greatest pleasures, and if some men have to pay for it just to experience it, that's already sad enough man lol. My vote is to just let the man experience what we all get and take for granted. Make the business legitimate, and take the sketchiness out of it. It will weed out the trashy ones doing it for a bump of coke that are carrying a multitude of STD's. The ones that will rob you. Take away the pimps that abuse prostitutes. Clean it all up and weed out the trash is my vote.
I believe it’s illegal because if it were legal it would blur the lines on whether or not someone’s willingly doing it or if they’re being pimped or sex trafficked against their will. It doesn’t take much to get someone to lie.
because a lot of prostitutes are forced into it and forced to take drugs to keep them dependent on their pimp.
so actually they're many prostitutes who are severely hurt and damaged by prostitution
In that case Pimping and forcing should be illegal
Not prostitution
Guns lead to killing but they aren’t illegal
Cigarettes lead to cancer
Drinking leads to liver failure
I could go on lol but yeah
Lol drinking can lead to deaths like driving drunk
The girl has not step into the real world
Yeah let's make something illegal, that would make it safer not
You seriously need to read up what happened when we banned alcohol, the crime rate skyrocket. Plus, the drug war also has been a massively failure
@NorthwestRider u can fuck whatever prostitutes you want the question was is it illegal dummy not do i agree or disagree or if other things should be Illegal. and since he decided to claim it is harmless that also is an incorrect statement. people do get harmed.
and considering my parents were killed by drunk fucking drivers i will not discuss my views on drinking and motha fucking driving with you
Man, you sound triggered. Also not all prostitutes are forced into prostitution
@NorthwestRider really they aren't. well who knew. 🥴what other nuggets of wisdom do you have for me rere?
Please teach me how to be so pathetic i need to pay for sex?
Man, you are very emotional to think. It should be legal in all 50 states with brothels. No pimps or drugs, just their free own will
@NorthwestRider let it be legal who cares. me talking shit makes me emotional wow you so dumb.😂😂 in fact i been pming my friend about how much im enjoyingstringing yiu along
It is legal in European countries and they are doing fine. They removed the dark market and shifted the power from the criminals to the government

You think shrooms should be illegal? Laws aren't for the benefit of the citizenry my friend... at least, not always. Making prostitution illegal just creates a bunch of STDs and gangs. I swear the state just makes shit illegal so they can skim off the top of the very profitable illegal mafias which they WILLINGLY ALLOW to operate.
You go along to get along, that's what these cop fucks would say to absolve themselves of moral responsibility for enforcing this shit and takin a cut of the swag
Prostitution is illegal in many places primarily because of religious pressure. Religions want people to get married and have lots of children who grow up in the religion, and prostitution offers an alternative option that religion doesn't want to have to compete with. That's the real reason.
It should be noted that many religions used to have religious prostitution, and even as recently as the 18th century, the Catholic church ran brothels.
They are hurting people , it's linked to human trafficking for one thing it also spreads disease and exposes prostitutes to a lot of dangerous situations. Increased penalties for pimps but also for tricks and whores would cut it way back. We just need to take it seriously as a crime.
probably because its like... not good for the um, economy... work system... they want people to be working jobs that need to be done... for example uhh... I don't know, building homes.. working in factory.. or running a power plant or something... i dont know... but im jus saying... if a lot n lot of people are jus standing on the street corner selling sex... it will reduce the amount of people working actual jobs that need to be done
its like... not a legitimate way of gettin money... although i dont agree with it and i think prostitution should be legal... cos its not like evryone would become a prostitute if it became legal is it?
there would still be plenty of people to work normal jobs... so i dont think it would really be a problem..
In some states like Nevada its not illegal. In Europe they have whats called "whore houses" where guys come a pay the girls to fuck. Its seen as a business and natural human instinct so its not illegal. I know a guy who owned a whore house in germany and he has 2 daughters and is happily married. Its seen just as any other business
Because if prostitution were legal it would devalue females and their social monopoly. Females do not want men having easy access to sex because that is the sole leverage they hold over men, and without it they wouldn't be able to get away with being entitled stupid fat whores.
In my country it's legal.
Pimping is illegal.
Imagine if it was made legal everywhere. Men could just pay for it and not even know the womans name.
dating, courting , paying for drinks, no more rejections. Why bother with that if you can just bypass all of that and just pay for sex. And it's probably cheaper and less frustrating
Just because people are allowed to do something doesn't mean they always will. Legalizing prostitution just prevents consenting adults from being caged for it, not that it's all you can do. Most people would still go on dates and all that as usual because it's what they find more fulfilling.
To much human trafficking and pimping involved in usually, especially when it is not legal.
In the end women get not much or nothing out of doing that 'job' or even in some cases forced to do it.
And all that feminazy movement BS.
It is legal in some countries.
I do not use those services or even consider using it.
Same as you I have no opinion about them.
I believe that with the exception of SWERFs, most modern-day feminists are for the legalization of prostitution because it would cut down on human trafficking/pimping, and thus, protect women.
If you noticed I wrote 'feminazy' ( that include all stupid attention seeking lesbians, who shout loudest, about stuff they do not understand, and there is some men with them, but they are irrelevant), that has nothing to do with 'feminists'.
This country has a long history of puritanical laws, so we have many things are illegal simply cause they're seen as sinful.
Because powerful men don't like the idea of sharing women. And a girl with a price is a girl that more than one person can afford.
In the US you can legally posses a device made with the sole purpose of taking another human life, but you can't have sex. It's idiotic.
Blame the stupid religious nuts who want to regulate your sex life
We need to kick them out of the country
No it should be heavily regulated by the state, only X amount of prostitute licenses should be granted per capita. Its far too easy for girls to pull down their panties, take vagina pics and upload them to some sex site to sell them for money.
Because voters and politicians love to enforce their personal morals on other people.
Because it's hard for governments to make money of it
If I had to guess its because they can't regulate or tax you on it.
They can't get their slice.
In the UK prostitution isn't illegal. It's just illegal to be a pimp or run a brothel. Basically you can't make a career out of it
For bogus reasons, they pay their taxes but still. Government can give them age legalisation of being a professional prostitute and their clients. Age specification might help.
It's legal in many countries and contrary to what some ignorant cunts here are saying, legal prostitution is safer.
Thank the religious nuts for criminalizing it.
And the feminists.
There is a lot of stupid laws out there , no need to count you will run out of breath
