Should prostitution be legal?

[TaraJo]

Just a thought . Do you think prostition is a decent career path , one perhaps children could aspire to for when they become adults , or perhaps the careers advisor could suggest it when they leave school?( if they didn't get great grades for example). Perhaps both mum and dad are prostitutes and they want to follow in thier footsteps?

That kinda depends on what kind of prostitution you mean. Some of them just get you off and move on and others are companions and nearly a girlfriend. The girlfriend one can be more of a long term choice for a girl, provided she's going to put effort into it and try to look nice. The ones you just get on to get off, though, I see that being more along similar lines as 'stripper' is nowadays: most girls won't do it, but some will and some of them will use it to do more in the sex work, others will use it to finance school or get themselves through a rough patch.
