A high class prositution ring has been busted in Seattle.
My question is:

Should prostitution be legal?

or

Illegal?


It seems to me that it is a moral issue and shouldn't be a legal one.

Morally, I think it's fine. I guess my concern would be associated with the spreading of disease. Take that out, I think it's fine.

In australia prostitution IS legal...
Well brothels are anyway. One is even on the sharemarket :)
Street prostitution isnt though, but the cops don't do much about it.

Honestly i think its better if its legal.
Cops can focus on real crimes and a bit of order can be involved, hopefully with less drugs and crime.

I would be concern about diseases also.

If somebody want to offer their services and it doesn't hurt anybody(directly) than WTF??
I think the police should use their resources better.
Arrest the pimps.
If prositution was legal and run out of brothels like in Nevada, then at least it would bring in some tax revenue.
The setup that was busted in Seattle sounded pretty nice. It was online.
Look through pictures of "escorts" pick one, meet her in a nice hotel and be "escorted" After a fee of course.
Nobody being forced to do anything, and this "escort" service was run by a Mother & Daughter team lol

If prostitution were legal, you'd see less spreading of diseases. If it were legal in brothels, like in that one Nevada county (I am pretty sure it's not legal in all of Nevada), street prostitution would decrease dramatically, and because brothels would most likely always test their bitches and require condom use, you'd have less diseases.

Prostitution should totally be legalized. I would never use one, because that's pretty pathetic (but there are a lot of pathetic people out there), but the cost and harm of making it illegal are much greater than the cost and harm of it being legal.

I am waiting for some attorney to get busted(for paying for sex) and sue the friggin state for breaking his constitutional rights. Take it all the way to the "Supreme" Court.
Its got to happen sooner or later right? ;-)

Yes,no morals should be enforced at gunpoint-lets get rid of all the statutory laws:legalize homosexuality;prostitution;gambling;drugs and porn.The law neither stops them or cuts down on their spread.Always support freedom-even when you don't want too!

Reply to Snaggle

Sounds reasonable to me, I do think however that most things should be regulated by the gov in some manor. (disease testing for prostitution, acceptable quality standards on meth, etc.)

it shouldnt be legal. it promotes disorder in the society. prostitution is a sin just like killing a person or stealing something so it can never be made legal. i know this poll wont decide its legal state all over the world but if u think it should be made legal than all the other crimes should be made legal. some people may say that its not a crime because a prostitute is willing for that act herself. but its the wrong way. sex is a wedding gift that should always be opened after the wedding with your partner. this is human nature. sex isnt meant to be practiced with a woman who is not your wife.
if for instance (not in a lifetime!!) prostitution is made legal then every poor woman will go for it. and this is what results in a disorder in the society.

Prostitution is the oldest profession and is not a sin. At 16 every boy should be given a prostitute to have anal sex with and at 16 every girl should be given two to gang bang her.

On your wedding night you should get a couple prostitutes to have an orgy with you and your wife. Get a guy to do your cornhole too.

i dont think that point can convince somebody to admit that its not a sin. it might be the oldest profession (although i dont think so) but that doesnt mean that it should be legal. anyway all the other crimes are very old so why shouldnt they be made legal

u know what makes a pig so filthy. its group sex and partner switching. and i believe no human wants to be a pig. sex is an act that is to be restricted to only two people who are married to each other. thats the way it should be

Reply to samcheetah

Did you know that the pig is more intelligent than the dog? We should have pigs as pets instead of dogs. Leave dogs to be gourmet meals. Asian culture must know something that western culture doesn't.

From now on I declare this forum a no dog zone. We will only have pigs as pets.

Look, you can have sex with a prostitute but we'll leave making love to your wife.

That way you can go out on the weekends and get some extra action without "really" breaking the rules.

Leave religion out of this. Didn't Jesus have sex with prostitutes every Sunday?

religion is the code of life and u cant just leave it.

Reply to samcheetah

Religion is not the code of life.

The code of life is instinct. It's survival of the fittest and the desire to inseminate the herd and spread your genes.

You simply allow religion to delute your mind and you deny your self the simple pleasures in life such as sex when you want to. Using religion as an arbitrary barrier from pleasure is absurd. If two people want to have sex before marraige then they should do so.

thats the problem with your thinking. u have based the concept of life on the darwin's theory of evolution and not on religion. im sorry for u brother. i can just pray for you.
get out of darwin's theory. grow up. do u think all the creatures that are present to this date evolved in such a way. u gotta be kidding

u wont because monkeys and humans are separate species that have no link between them. no interchange can take place between them
this poll is getting off the topic and it has become more than a debate on prostitution. cut the darwin theory out of this. and going back to our topic i want to say it again that prostitution is a sin and i should never be made legal.

There is no logic in your statement above though. Relgion is based on faith and evolution is based on science. Science uses the scientific method to back up its claims. Religion uses faith.

Anthropology has volumes of evidence to support evolution. Religion has no evidence to disprove it let alone prove that we all came from Adam and Eve.

Prostitution is not a sin. There are no reported cases of any prostitute or customer of a prostitute going to hell. I haven't seen a single document, video, or audio tape confirming that a person is in hell for anything let alone for prostitution.

I think prostitution should be tax deductable.

yes religion is based on faith. but faith on whom?? the creator. who in the world is more trustworthy than the creator himself. and yes evolution is based on science but science is man created. man created many things that are not right. we cannot believe on something we have created. look at the ceiling above u. a man has created it. one earthquake and its gone. but look at the sky. god created it and its there since he created it. nothing can break the sky.
anthropology is a science created by man and even if it does support evolution it doesnt prove it right. evolution is just a theory its not a fact or law.
religion doesnt need to disprove evolution. religion was there first. religion developed human thinking. and that human thinking disproves the theory of evolution my dear fellow. think about it did we evolve from monkeys ..... hahahahaha

nice shot but you are wrong again. you dont need any documentation about who is in hell and who is not. there is no log book that will be delivered to humans from hell to testify about this. God is superior to all this he doesnt need to convince the human about his orders. he just tells it. the human will remain happy if he obeys.

What if the creator is wrong? We know from mythology that in many cultures the creator makes mistakes. Maybe he made a big mistake regarding your faith and belief that prostitution is a sin.

Maybe he'll kill you and torture your family for not telling him that he made a mistake.

Religion is nothing though. It's just a statement of faith. It has no basis other than faith. You don't know that there is a god/creator. You know nothing. You just believe it since you're too afraid to admit that you might be alone out there.

lol. the creator making a mistake. never. whenever u say something u start from the wrong point. u said that

>We know from mythology that in many cultures the creator makes mistakes

and who do u think made the mythologies. us humans. isnt it. we made myths that are wrong. God didnt dictate a myth himself. he didnt come on tv like bush and make a statement about prostitution. orders from God are valid and they reach humans by valid means i.e. a messenger.

and God doesnt threat people like you said. God loves his creations (us) and he wants them to be in peace and harmony.

cHeEtAh

Reply to samcheetah

The creator has destroyed his creations many times over in many different culture's creations. In Jewish religion God is not perfect. If I'm not mistaken it is only in Christian/Catholic relgion that god is perfect.

God wouldn't be god if he didn't make mistakes. If god were perfect then there would be peace, harmony, good health, and everlasting bliss on earth.

How do you even know that there is a god?

i voted on your poll. r u happy now.

anyway back to the topic. you said

>You know nothing

yes we humans know nothing. thats why the creator told us about his creations.

>Religion is nothing though. It's just a statement of faith

its more than that. its a code of life.

>You just believe it since you're too afraid to admit that you might be alone out there

hello its the 21st century.

u know why people think that there is no creator. thats because they dont want to live their lives under the instructions of someone else. but everyone knows that there is a creator. everything in the world didnt pop out from no where. there has to be some controlling mechanism. how did this earth come into being.....mmmm.. the big bang!!! wrong . ok if it was the big bang then what cause the big bang.......mmmm...a black hole bursted...wrong again. where did that black hole come from. and the story goes on and on. but ill tell u whats the real story. God created all of this and we have to obey him.

It's tough to not believe in a higher power. I got a degree in Astrophysics and the world and universe is just too awesome to think that there isn't something more significant than us. It might be an advanced alien race that is several billions of years old, it might be an alternative dimension of existance, it might be what you call god.

What it isn't though is some guy who came to earth had a son and now has you resist your basic tempations, urges, desires, and needs.

If you want to have sex with a prostitute, a consenting individual, then by all means do so. You should feel no guilt since it is not wrong. It doesn't hurt anybody.

i dont masterbate.

the jewish religion and the christian/catholic religion were god's own religion for specific regions of the world. messengers came to respective people with God's words. but the manuscripts of these religions have been changed by the people so they are not as they used to be when they were delivered to the people.

islam is an exception. it is still in the form in which it was revealed.

god doesnt make mistakes. He is perfect.

there isnt peace, harmony in this world because of humans. they dont obey the rules.

and everyone knows there is a God who controls everything but doesnt want to admit the fact

You're limiting yourself to a Christian point of view. The rest of the world would disagree with you.

Ever read creation stories? Popul Vuh? Hopi creation stories? Any native american creation stories?

If humans aren't obeying the rules then you really should come to the realization that maybe humans have killed god.

God cant be killed because he is the creator. and im not keeping a christian point of view because im a muslim. the reason why it looks as though i have a christian point of view is because christianity was created by God for a specific society at a specific time in history. islam was created after that and was meant for everyone and is valid for all times.

evolution didnt shape out the world as we know it today. think about it. if everything was allowed to run on its own then nothing would have been alright. if we humans evolved from lower life creatures then they shouldnt be there. thats what the theory says. the most sucsessful species wins and it continues to live. and i cant think of a specie more sucsessful than the human being. then why is it that there are literally billions of other creatures living in this world. they should have perished.

the theory of evolution is just a theory. the truth is God and He has giving humans certain orders that are to be followed even if the human doesnt like it
