    This article is split half and half. They have proven a lot of legit reasons as to why prostitution should be legalized, but many people feel so strongly against it at the same time.

    I think prostitution should be illegal because then it would only further the spread of STIs and end up causeing a lot more problems in the future.

    It's definitely a touchy subject with both pros and cons. If it was legal they could regulate it with certain standards that brothels have to uphold. On the other hand, someone's body should not be for sale. If it was legalized then more questions would rise like should prostitution rings be legalized as well. And no matter what happens people will still continue to do it under the table (no pun intended) because they don't want to follow the regulations.

    First, nice one Phebs. Now when it comes to this it should definetly be illegal, because it only leads to more problems.

    I think it should remain illegal because it could lead to legalization of pimping and prostitution rings. The dirtbags who are willing to sell women for their bodies deserve to rot in jail. Even if prostitution became legal there would still be jerkoffs who won't want to follow the state regulated standards put in place.

    From a medical view there are many reasons not to legalize prostitution. STD's could be tested for in advance but the testing could not keep up with the amount of partners a prostitute would have. The health risks are too dangerous to chance.

    COYOTE's position on prostitution is that it should be decriminalized rather than legalized, for all private, consenting adult commercial sex. Any public activity (such as solicitation) can be regulated as other public activities are, and thus the concern over prostitution in one's neighborhood on the street is not a factor in decriminalization.

    This article talks about how prostitution should be legal. It also states a couple facts on how allowing prostitution could make things safer for everyone. The article then follows up on our own rights and freedom to be with whoever we want.

    This tells the pros to why prostitution should be legalized. Some including improving neighborhoods and safety, reducing crime, puts law enforcement to better use, and it promotes liberty and privacy. But as we all know there are cons that go with it. You will have cons with everything. This article is good to read if you have an open mind. Some of the ideas do make sense.

    Yes, it happens here too. Girls as young as 9 are forced into becoming prostitutes in America. This is the vivid story of how a young girl was manipulated, and now how she is a team member of a group Polaris Project; helpings young girls like she once was get out of a bad situation.

    She is Naama Margolese, 8, the daughter of American immigrants who are observant modern Orthodox Jews. An Israeli weekend television program told the story of how Naama had become terrified of walking to her elementary school here after ultra-Orthodox men spit on her, insulted her and called her a prostitute because her modest dress did not adhere exactly to their more rigorous dress code.

    This article is interesting because it is about how China has taken away legal rights from it's citizens. The topic was brought up when a lady, Tang Hui, who was tossed into a "reeducating by labor" camp for advocating for her daughter, that was raped and sold into a prostitution ring. Tang Hui was just standing up for her daughter's rights by raising her voice when the accused were not given a just sentence for their crimes.
