The only reason a guy would hire a prostitute is if he could not land a reasonably attractive non prude woman in real life. Or if he could not land a woman period.

Legal reasonably priced prostititues would force women in the dating world to up their game as well, you would see more women willing to do more in bed.

Just weeding out the women who don't swa**ow cuts the pool down quite a bit which is unfortunate.
I don't think the price would drop. In Nevada, it's very $$$ in the legal brothels. I don't think a lot of the guys use them because they can't get girls, many are businessmen, married people, etc who just want quick and uncomplicated sex. I also don't think it would force women to "up their game" in any way. There are already tons of women who are not prostitutes who are uninhibited and adventurous in bed.

In other countries prostitution is the norm. I've had several European friends tell me of their regular weekly mistress trips.

I think it's well suited for it to be allowed at least in my country for my personal benefit.

I state my personal benefit as then perhaps it'll lessen the about of what I see as male whining about how dating is oh so easier for gals which really seems to be about how they can't have as much sex with as many attractive gals as they want as easily as gals can have sex with guys. Plus it may lessen the about of approaches I get if guys have other viable legal sex options as I find the sole intention of most female-male interaction is the male getting sex.

The general effect of this will likely be gals being pressured even more to forgo themselves and please the male by not only fearing that another gal will take his attention if she's not putting out enough for him but that he can just up and get a prostitute if she won't do what he want. As well as likely guys being even less motivated to please gals than they are even now as why bother pleasing their partner when they can just get a prostitute who will focus on pleasing him. So basically to me this will be result in even more of the seemingly typical gals doing more to please guys and guys doing noting to little to please gals.

Its expensive because its the only county in the USA where its legal and its HIGHLY regulated. When any woman can throw our her business for an incall anywhere in the nation it will change the game considerably.

If the price does not change considerably then the legalization will be irrelevant and rape and going postal will still happen. Most guys cant afford $300 a pop, if it went down to say 40-50 it would be a game changer.

Correct, then you will know that when a man approaches you he wants the whole package because if he just wanted sex he could go throw down a couple 20's and get what he wants, which is what your dinner and drinks will cost anyways.

Escorts aren't sex workers. And it is false that the biggest share of clients are losers who cannot get sex without paying for it.

i don't get the connection between mistresses and prostitution. seems like a giant leap to me.

the far majority have sex for money, even though for legal purposes they state that payment is for their time and not for any specific services. but they would not be long for business if they didn't provide sexual services.

Hey that won't fly here its either one extreme or the other because reality is in the eye of the beholder. lol

On topic I am in the camp of legalizing it two adults their business no appeal to morality coming from my end.

No I will not know he is approaching because he wants the whole package as many dates cost far less than a couple of 20's or in fact free and perhaps he is approaching because he can't afford prostitutes.

Though nice on seemingly agreeing that most female-male interaction is about the male getting sex.
