The deliberate spreading of a communicable diseases and tax evasion are already illegal. That in this case, it is predominantly females who are practicing these crimes. Toleration is an anomaly that needs to be attended to. However: Free Market activities involving acquired personal skills, sexual or otherwise, should be left as ...  Read the complete review

There is a lot of mis-information, myths and exaggeration which surround the subject of prostitution. There are distinct areas: massage parlours, escort services and street workers, these often get confused in media reports and create a wrong image. Prostitution itself is not illegal, however a number of ...  Read the complete review

The question is not whether prostitution is good or bad. It's the "oldest profession" and as long as demand breeds supply, it will exist. The question is, would you rather let prostitution slip down to criminal sphere - or legalise it? My answer is - legalise. If the government can't do anything about the phenomenon ...  Read the complete review

The fundemental issue against prostitution is the moral concepts that refuse to tollerate it. The health and safety issues are simply excuses to justify this moral opposition. Since within a regulated and licenced industry safety measures could more easily be controlled. Many argue that prostitution exploits women, but in truth it ...  Read the complete review

Prostitution is one of the oldest trades known to man. Where cities have sprung up so has this ancient trade. For thousands of years people have payed for sex despite the social stygma that has almost always accompanied it. Therefore i see no reason why such a trade should be illegal, although it maybe should be monitored. The ...  Read the complete review

This is the one subject that everyone has an opinion about but nobody talks about , unless it is in the news for example the Ipswich murders, or the yorkshire ripper or even jack the ripper.. Now although these examples are a bit extreme, the cases of prostitutes being beaten up or even put in hospitals is very common, all prostitutes ...  Read the complete review

This is a debate that has gone on for many years and yet the government can not seem to grasp the basic idea. Everyone who has a job is in fact prostituting, they may not call it that but if a mechanic can sell his hands for a paycheck and a business man his mind, then why is it that a prostitute can not sell her body. ...  Read the complete review

Should prostitution be legalised? This is of course another emotional issue and the question as to whether prostitution be legalised has been going on for some time, especially with the current tragedy in Ipswich. Before I outline my position and thoughts on this I should highlight that I am a Christian and stand ...  Read the complete review

The horrific events in Ipswich have been an all too tragic reminder of how our moralistic and irresponsible attitude to the reality of prostitution in the UK leads to the deaths of innocent young women who through adverse social circumstances (or sometimes choice) have to risk their lives to make a living. The key to the ...  Read the complete review

Here is the truth about Prostitutes. 1. What's the difference between a Prostitute and Bosco? You can only get one hand up Bosco. 2. What's the difference between a Prostitute and a Refrigerator? A refrigerator doesn't fart when you take your meat out of ...  Read the complete review

Well i am currently living in Blackpool and i can tell you for nothing (well for some miles then) that Prostitution whether legal or not already happens. I'm sure no one will be shocked to hear that but i thought it was an important place to start as if you consider prostitution good or bad you must remember it is a problem or benefit ...  Read the complete review

One big point I would like to make is that there are a lot of frustrated men out there who need sex and by having prostitutes available, it gives them what they want and stops them from looking else where such as school gates etc. If you have ever experienced the red light district in Amsterdam you will know that it is well ...  Read the complete review

Whilst I am for legal brothels with only a few prostitutes operating inside them. I am against street prostitution. Legal brothels should only operate with and in accordance with the local authority and the police. This will allow them to operate with local prostututes who may know something about other female prostitutes in the area. ...  Read the complete review

Prostitution has been around for longer than most other professions and in a lot of other countries it is completely legal! So why is it still illegal here? Is Britian living in the dark ages refusing to make way for a new more sexually liberal country? Quite a lot of people would just dismiss the topic of legalising ...  Read the complete review

I was a little puzzled by the title for this subject, I thought prostitution was already legal and that it was only keeping a brothel, soliciting for trade or living off the immoral earnings of a woman that were against the law. Another common misconception is that prostitutes do not pay tax, many of them do in fact a ...  Read the complete review

You know, this is a very difficult question to answer. My own view is that, by definition, I am not opposed to prostitution, provided that it is mutually consensual and that both parties are safe. There are lots of arguments for legalisation, but I do wonder how many of them are "blue sky" and how many of them would ...  Read the complete review

This is the oldest profession in the owrld and i am sure it is here to stay. From making a safer 'habitat' for the owwrking girls be it on the street or in brothels, to making the client feel safer too as there is less chance of a rip off. A lot of girls in this trade are single mums looking to better the upbringing of their children to ...  Read the complete review

interesting question, first of all you should consider why anything need be legalised. Most of the conduct we display in society is not covered by law but by constitutional convention, these are the unwritten laws that bind society in acceptable conduct. dope is now tolerated by Police to a large extent allthough for many uses ...  Read the complete review

From my limited experience I have seen two very different ways of dealing with prostitution. When I was a student in Birmingham my route to the local sports centre involved going down a street that was used for prostitution and it was not a pleasant street to walk alng at night. Not only could you be mistaken for a prostitute and hassled ...  Read the complete review
