Legalized, regulated prostitution doesn't seem to have that problem. This is from a recent news article:

"Industry officials say disease and violence are rare in legal brothels. Flint said that since testing began in the mid-1980s, no legal prostitute has ever become HIV positive; he estimates half a million legal paid sex acts are performed annually in Nevada."

Wait a sec; what's so inspiring about diseased hookers, anyway?

[Zzyzx]

...no prob whith pple with aids..cause I wish them best recovery

Are you kidding? I very certainly do have a problem with HIV-positive people that would pay for sex without warning their "partner" about their condition. That's bullshit.

[Korono]

Prostitution should be legalized and taxed. Solve some of this fucking deficit. Also, yeah, that whole Nevada prostitute farm thing. That works. And how are they asking for AIDS if there is no record of those girls ever having AIDS. That and I'm certain that everyone is tested. And I mean everyone.

[beelzebub]

Let the ho's organize and come up with a plan. I think it could solve many problems, add security for employees and customers and eliminate unnecessary arrests and costs currently in place. We could be like Amsterdam!

Ho's Unite and get yer groove on and the bank accounts ROLLING!

Prostitution should be legalized because then, there would be less STDs, and it would create a healthier environment for prostitutes to work in. Many prostitutes get verbally and physically abused, and this is not right. I believe that if prostitution is legalized, there will be regular health checkups for them, and they won't have to deal with as much abuse.

But that's just me...

prostitution is already legal in vegas, isn't it? that chicken ranch or something. isn't it enough i'm going crazy without illegal here in cali? now you want to make it all like in amsterdam? i think you are absolutely all full of bullshit.

[Brains_Behind_Operation]

I have to agree with the women's rights group in here. There doesn't seem to be any convincing reason to keep prostitution illegal. It is just what some women want to do with their body, and what some men will pay for because they don't care to find what it takes to get a woman the natural way....but it sickens me just thinking about hooking up with a prostitute, and you can be sure you won't ever be seeing me prowling their streets for anything more than a good laugh at the retards digging for their wallets.

[buttless_wonder]

Legal or not this will be happenning. Would you rather it regulated or just going on in the alley behind a dumpster?
I would prefer the women tested for STDs and mandatory condom usage, granted it's not perfect but it beats the system in place now.

I'd rather it going on in an alley behind a dumpster. It makes for a way to help identify the lesser of our species with legalities and can make for some interesting news stories to end the day with.:D

[vulcan]

Prostitution is here to stay, and it should be legalized, since after Adam sinned, we had the oldest profession around. So we should legalized it regulated it and even taxed it. Male and Female prostitution must be regulated and legalized. No more pimps or better than that the goverment should be the pimp, and we are the goverment, so we are going to be pimps? what do you think hey Frekazoid are you there? What do you think? after all we can buy that flashy neckless in the FleaMarket...lol;)

[Paisleyspeaker]

Of course prostitution should be legalized. Doesn't it strike anyone else as silly that the worlds oldest profession is against the law here. It would protect the women involved: by bringing them inside, getting rid of the pimps, and enforcing condom use and aids testing. It would also take these human beings off the fringes of society. Prostitutes on the streets have an incredible risk of becoming victims of extreme violence and murder. When people like you think they are less than human ( saying any human being deserves to get aids is inhumane, I wish karma upon you) we are in a way turning our heads and giving the predators permission. The girls on the ranches in Nevada don't have those worries. They get to do their jobs in peace, and the amount of money they make speaks volumes about the importance of the role they serve. :cool:

As long as the Government can tax your sex it can be legal.

And then we'll have to document every sensual act that we experience with the rest of our taxes. If we don't, there will be a great big governmental investigation and we'll be locked up for decades. Sounds like the stock market for all forms of media will sky-rocket when this starts to happen!

Hahahahah... Tax Sex.. what? :confused:

HKD is arguing that there is no other way that prostitution will become legal.

Next is taxing us for THINKING about having sex.....taxes are doubled if you think about doing it with someone famous.

Ah... don't forget to pick up your pre-paid sex minutes!

[Nobody]

Hahahahah... Tax Sex.. what? :confused:
Don't laugh . I hear if you use a machine,that hangs on the wall of most public restrooms, you can get condoms tax free. If you want to practice real safe sex, then get the ones with hand grips.

Screw that, you get a lot more chances for tax breaks when you don't practice safe sex....as long as something more happens because of it....

[DamDisIsShiznats]

we should put some starter bathroom banger wall hangers in the highschools for practice of that safe tax free sex!

They tried that....then when one teacher went to the bathroom while the students were taking a test he finally realized why all the kids were skipping his tests!

They've got those. Pre Paid Lot Lizzard Cards. Just swipe it in the crack of her ass to activate it.

Poor Baby:D

Taxing sex. they would fill the jails with tax evaders faster than than you can say "That depends on what the definition of is is" suddenly nothing would be sex anymore. But seriously taxing the sex money is made off of would help soften the blow of this administration.(and they say that democrats spend too much, lets give our rich friends money, then get involved in an expensive war these same people will profit from) sorry, tangent. Anyway they could tax sex profits, and they would bring in cash from the lisences and mandatory testing too. Maybe all that money could go into health research. a vaccine for aids, cure for cancer who knows. And think of the employemnt opportunites for trailer trash and welfare mothers:p

[regularjoe]

Taxing.... hmmm, according to the latest stats available from the IRS (2003), the top 50% of taxpayers account for nearly 97% of all taxes paid so basically half the folks are freeloading now.

Another fine example of taxing is cigarettes. The "government" won a nice huge $500 billion settlement against the "tobacco companies".... or did they. How does that work exactly? Oh, yeah, a pack of cigarettes that used to cost somewhere around 35 cents is now $3 to $4 (to pay the $500 billion). Studies indicate that the vast majority of smokers are folks lower on the socio-economic scale. Result - A tax on the poor. Not much different than the moronic lotteries. When I was a kid, they called that "running a numbers game", it was run by the local mob and was illegal. Now, it "supports education" (yeah, right) and, again, is primarily a tax on the poor.

Trailer trash & welfare mothers? Isn't that a bit of a snob attitude regarding another's situation in life?

[Brains_Behind_Operation]

The tax obviously isn't yet as large as it needs to be. People are still finding ways to smoke even though they are of the lower income class. Smoking is bad for you and everyone who has to be around you while you smoke. A higher price should give these lower income people more reason to quit, but it hasn't seemed to do the trick yet. I guess it makes sense that the low income people are also the people of low intelligence. It would take an idiot in today's world of information to start smoking in the first place.

[Paisleyspeaker]

The lottery is another reverse tax. Have you ever seen a rich person buying a lotto ticket? Again people in the lower economic brackets putting more in that those with more.

[Brains_Behind_Operation]

At least it makes it more fair that these rich people are paying so much of our income taxes then. The upper 50% pay 97% (or something near that) of the income taxes, but the lower 50% pay about the same in idiot taxes. It helps to even things out.:D

", no legal prostitute has ever become HIV positive; "
Yes, but it's rare for women who don't whore themselves in the first place to test HIV-positive either.

[Paisleyspeaker]

General,
Open your mind a little, I know women who had never done such a thing, but contracted the disease through their husbands. Remeber it is not just sexually transmitted. It can be transmitted through shared needles, and dirty medical equipment. There was a dentist here in Florida who about 10 years ago infected 3 patients. Any body fluid containing blood or other types of T cells entering any opening in the protective layer of your body (orafices, cuts, mucous membranes[eyes,,nose] ) can infect you. It's not some divine punishment for bad behavior, but a virus that gets in anyway it can.

[General Septem]

Do you deny that not whoring yourself greatly reduces your risk? That's all I'm talking about. I'm not an idiot. :)

[Paisleyspeaker]

Increased sexual promiscuity does increase ones risks. Regular correct condom use lowers that risk. whether you charge for it, affects nothing.

If you have AIDS and you have sex 100 times with a condom, there is an almost 100% chance you will spread it. Whoring oneself out does not necessarily mean you charge for it.

[Paisleyspeaker]

There is a flaw in that percentage. Many years ago I was the bridesmaid in a wedding where the groom was HIV positive. He was from Haiti and had contracted the diesease through dirty medical equipment. She was a nurse and knew exactly what she was getting into. They were together over seven years before he passed away. She is to this day HIV negative, even figureing in his poor health I am sure that within that 7+ years they made love more than 100 times. You have to actually know how to use a condom properly, not all do, and you can never ever let your gaurd down. She was also at risk eveytime he cut himself and she tended to him his razors and toiletry items were also a risk. She made it through.
You are right that whoring yourself doesn't mean charging for sex. I don't believe it needs to have anything to do with sex. One can be a whore in many ways.

[General Septem]

Condoms significantly reduce the risk of transmitting disease, but they're not foolproof, and by the sound of it, your friend was either lucky or they were being extremely careful (like maybe multiple condoms). Even pro-condom advocates know this, which is why Planned Parenthood representatives will never give you a straight answer on the subject. All they ever say is "a properly used condom will significantly reduce the risk of transmitting disease". Well that sounds good when they say it but in practice, that "significance" still leaves a wide open hole. One miracle story about a couple that you "think" had sex more than 100 times is not enough evidence to refute this.

[Paisleyspeaker]

Smart lad, condoms only reduce the risk, they cannot make it go away. And any risk of catching a fatal illness can be too much. Thats why they don't call it safe sex, but safer sex. My friend was lucky, but also very careful. Being a nurse helped her, someone with nomedical training might not have faired as well. And I know they made love, I just don't know the exact # of times. It's a personal subject.
And in response to something you wrote to bezelbub, Aids was given it's foothold in the cercumstances he described. You responded to him that gays spread it. That is only partial true. Homophobia was also to blame. It was seen as a gay disease and therefore below our notice. Why spend money to try and do anything about a disease that was only killing "fags". So they didn't do anything. Until it started killing str8s, then it was too late. Our failure to love our neighbor is now killing us. Jesus didn't put any exceptions on it , neither should you. And you can bring up Leviticus, because he didn't say to love according to the laws, he simply said to love.

That's my point. Condoms are really not effective. In fact most teenage girls in the maternity ward claimed to have been using condoms.

You're relatively new here, so perhaps you should get yourself caught up on the epic battles between 'bubba and myself. I was just being sarcastic when I said "I blame you for AIDS", because what he said about blaming religion for the world's stupidities was just as ignorant if not worse.
