dangers 

2. Why is prostituion so frowned upon?

Harmful to the woman, mentally and physically

Illegal in most areas in un tied states expect certain areas in Nevada except vegas

Concept of girls being disease ridden, dirty, cheap, and having no morals

3. Reasons it should be legal

Prostitution is a victimless crime. Workers provide a service for a fee, each party involved is winning

People have a right to use their bodies as they please. If phone sex, webcam sex, and fully naked strip clubs are all legal why isn't prostitution. What makes it so different?

Criminalizing the trade of sex is not the solution. The industry is multi million dollars and is here to stay. Why not be smart and make it safer for the parties involved as well as earn money from it

It cannot be prevented by passing laws. In strip clubs, massage parlors, streets, and many other places there will always be prostitution. It is impossible to prevent it.

Escort services

Madams

Different levels of prostitution(some with affluent members of community)

Making it legal would give sex workers employment rights and benefits

Govt could tax and make $$$

Nevada govt earns as much as 3,000 a week

Help fight sex trafficking

If a good relationship is made with sex workers and the Law the threat of the “law” by Pimps will no longer be existent. 

Becomes much more safe for workers, weekly STD testing, not controlled by pimps, sexual violence less common 

Conclusion:

Why it makes sense for every party except the Pimps to make prostitution legal

Why it is called the oldest profession
