Pro Prostitution


            
             It is rather odd to think how one of the world's oldest professions is found as something of an illegal and harmful nature. For some, including myself, prostitution is considered mala prohibita or victimless crime, whereas others lobby to their local legislature to rid prostitution forever. What these people do not realize is that the problem of prostitution only exists in a non-legal setting. By allowing prostitution you will not only clean up the streets but you will inevitably have a safer and healthier environment. However, in order to establish my points on the benefits of prostitution, I must first present the negative effects of prostitution. This way you could clearly see why legalizing it would benefit society as a whole.
             First and foremost, non-legal prostitution is often found in the slums of big cities, where many of the young women feel forced into the profession because of hard economic conditions. A large percentage of these women are sadly hooked on drugs and end up trading sex to get high. If the poverty and the drug life aren't bad enough, the women get to look forward to working for a pimp who eventually beats them and takes most of their hard earned money. Also, sexually transmitted disease is a huge topic of interest when it comes to non-legal prostitution. Sexual activities that take place are often not regulated nor are the women who provide the service. Many of these women carry condoms but they are rarely used due to the customer paying extra or pure neglect. Another problem, which is a common occurrence regarding prostitution, is rape where these women have no protection from the man or the diseases he might be carrying. The police try to crack down by arresting prostitutes quite often, but usually they are let out the same day with a small fine. That same night, the women are right back on the street. Recently police are taking a different line of action where they arrest not the prostitute but the customer and subject him to much humiliation where they impound his car, put his picture and crime in the local paper which ultimately leads not only to termination of employment, but sometimes results in divorce (http://www.
