Quote:I beg to differ. But I can't be entirely sure whether it would or wouldn't make a difference to living conditions.Well, the reason I'm stating that it will make prostitution 100% safer is because I have yet not heard of a single AIDS case that stemmed from a gov regulated government in years.
The living conditions of the prostitutes, however, are still not the best. As prostitutes are socially segragated from the rest of society, it's really rare that they manage to get married to someone, and enjoy a better life.
For imported prostitutes it's somewhat different. They already have a shitty life back in their home countries, and they don't fare any better where they've come to, even for like three months or at most, a year.
Quote:I'm not saying it would stop people from using illegal prostitutes altogether, I'm saying that there would no doubt be less people who choose to, considering they have a choice between a safe legal option, and an unsafe illegal option. They don't even have that choice at the moment in my country.
The customer makes the choice, but the government needs to take every possible step to consider the health of it's citizens.
Regulating prostitution is therefore very important.
Quote:I wouldn't really pass comment on that as I don't know the fact of STD's such as AIDS.Well, in my country, it is. People rarely contract AIDS from normal relationships in my country.
Quote:But if prostitution was legal in the first place, the demand for these illegal prostitutes who have not been checked out for safety would surely be reduced? I would think this makes sense.
Well, it could also force the illegal brothels to take similar steps.
As I said, illegal prostitution is often unchecked, but there are some illegal but high esteemed brothels in my country, who do the same routine as the gov regulated brothels. The only difference is that the girls who work in these brothels are changed every 4-5 months, with fresh ones, so that customers who visit the brothel regularly can enjoy new women. These also cost a lot more than gov regulated brothels, but are of....better quality, in terms of looks, at least.
Quote:Yeah that's actually what I was getting at, that taxing it is actually a way to increase the safety and standard of living for people who choose to go into prostitution, to actually help stop people being forced into it in the first place.Well, I belive that at least in countries like America, prostitution should see a huge drop. It's a first world country, but still has local prostitution, strip clubs and etc. Really dazzling, if you ask me.
