Other people think that is invalid, which is why the the controversial topic is often debated to this day. In prostitution, girls are taken advantage by men.
First, prostitution should remain illegal so that young girls will not be taken advantage of. If prostitution remained illegal, human trafficking would drastically decrease, "particularly in light of the fact that many women in prostitution in countries that have legalised prostitution are originally victims of trafficking in women " (Top 10 Pros and Cons). However, that is invalid because "the fact that a pimp or customer gives money to a prostitute for submitting to these acts does not alter the fact that child sexual abuse, rape, and/or battery occurs; it merely redefines these crimes as prostitution " (Top 10 Pros and Cons). Pimps always have excuses, and often use them to beat up and hurt their prostitutes. Therefore, action must be taken to stop this. All throughout the world, younger girls are taken advantage of because of the horrors of prostitution. Prostitution needs to end now before more bad things happen to young, innocent girls. Some people view prostitution as an actual source of income.
Secondly, prostitution should remain illegal because it is not a legitimate source of income. Women in prostitution believe that they can survive with prostitution. They are wrong because prostitution "will always be associated with crime, corruption, class, mass sexual exploitation and human trafficking " (Top 10 Pros and Cons). People do get revenue within prostitution, but it will result in human trafficking. Human trafficking is a problem that is wrong to many people. Also, the women that are in prostitution need money. But this causes "most women and children who are in prostitution come from the most oppressed and vulnerable groups in society " (Top 10 Pros and Cons). There are other ways that women in prostitution could earn money.
