Proponents of legalizing prostitution believe it would reduce crime, improve public health, increase tax revenue, help people out of poverty, get prostitutes off the streets, and allow consenting adults to make their own choices. They contend that prostitution is a victimless crime, especially in the 11 Nevada counties where it remains legal.

Opponents believe that legalizing prostitution would lead to increases in sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS, global human trafficking, and violent crime including rape and homicide. They contend that prostitution is inherently immoral, commercially exploitative, empowers the criminal underworld, and promotes the repression of women by men.

So, should it be legalised?

Yes.

Yes, obviously. Disgusting that it isn't.

Yes, if there are legitimate places that are heavily regulated for people to go and pay for sex, where it can be checked the workers are well treated and well paid, then it surely has to be safer for all parties than picking someone up in a back alley.

Here in Sweden it's legal to sell sex, but illegal to buy it. Sounds weird, but from what I've heard it's working quite well.

Yes, why the **** not?

Yes

Yes, it would be amazing for the economy. Rich old men love prostitutes.

Obviously, they prostitutes could work in classy, clean, safe brothels with hired security instead of working alleys and street corners where they are routinely raped and murdered. Its literally common sense because sex work is going NO WHERE. Its been here since biblical times. Hell Jesus Christ was serviced by a prostitute.

Not sure. I'll read the debates.

In my country, sex workers have SS. IDK how but hey have.

Not you being in favour of sex work but then demeaning it.

.

Its pretty much legalized in the western world sans the USA.

To answer the question - yes.

Not quite sure.

Of course.
