Prostitution


            
             What is prostitution? It's the act or practice of selling one's body, (sex) for money or profit. Typically the act or acts prearranged between the prostitute and the customer are for cash. Sometimes, however,other? arrangements are made such as trade for drugs, transportation somewhere, or even food. This would all depend on the individual prostitute and her current social or living status. Prostitution is perhaps the most undisputed and oldest profession in the world. Like some professions or job skills that die out or make way for the industrial revolution, prostitution still exists today. It thrives mostly in highly populated areas. Why? Because that's where the customers are! Prostitution is Illegal in some countries, but legal in others. Why do some countries allow this and we don't? There are biblical, ethical, and moral implications that cloud the legislative decision making process.
             The statement thatwe? don't allow it is not entirely correct. In the United States, "it" is legal in only one of the fifty states, Nevada. And then not everywhere in Nevada: Las Vegas, Reno, Carson City and Lake Tahoe still have it illegal. Supposedly the city fathers (and mothers) don't think that prostitution contributes to the family-oriented image that these gambling centers want. So any "action" that you may get in these cities will be high-risk in more ways than one. It is only in certain counties in Nevada where prostitution is legal. State law forbids legal prostitution in counties, which have a population over a certain number (hence the big cities are out); the remaining counties may have legal brothels, at local option. Not all do. However, Street-solicitation in Nevada is still illegal (as the rest of the united states), only in licensed establishments can you legally meet a Lady of the Night.
             Why would there be prostitution in the first place? Humans have a basic sex drive that must be feed for satisfaction.
