Really? You think prostitution is consensual? Sorry, but she or he is there because of the money. See for yourself. Give them the money and then give them the option of not having sex with you.
And then there's the question of why you have to pay....
Let me see now, as a person who is against prostitution:
1. you have people who will sign for organ donation after their death for the money, and many of organ receptors are legally receiving organ donations made in 3rd world countries which they literally bought (yes, this is the truth) from other people in dire need for money, selling their kidneys.
2. you have people who will sign for contraception treatment for the money, and you have people who are praising it as a (because generally you had large prison population forcefully undergoing not only "temporary" but also "permanent" treatments, and this was enforced until only a few decades ago)
3. you have the people who will bear your child for the money, and no it's not only in remote countries where whole treatment costs less than the expenses per average child in USA, the same procedure is available in USA as well, same is with sperm and egg donation
4. you have people who willingly sign for medical testing, and contrary to the general opinion about experimental testing (people thinking it's mostly dying cancer treatments), most of those tests are tests for various medications in development, consumed by completely healthy people, and some of them are not even able to apply for coverage of costs if something goes wrong,
5. you have people participating in social and other experiments for money, and it sometimes involves those people willingly being locked into special chambers for months to either eat, sleep or do daily chores, while being monitored by scientists. in fact, some people do this as their profession.
6. you have general consensus that people who work in miserable conditions in 3rd world countries (including CHILDREN) aren't the reason for them to boycott buying the pants, shirts, hats or shoes that they produce (or iPods & other high tech stuff!) and those factories have huge fatality rates, with significant number of workers ending up poisoned, blind or losing their limbs while working on cheap and dangerous machines because their lives are considered cheap as well.
And so on.
So lets just say that my reasoning for prostitution ban is ofcourse ideological reason, mainly because of ethics in my opinion, because I'm not a religious man. However, it is really dubious to enforce it in USA or Western Europe, you have a widespread attitude that people are literally charging their sexual services, "this way or that way". And general attitude and legislation fully approves such behavior, to make it worse.
Judging by the course of events, banning prostitution is purely ideological in any state and I think that anyone who disagrees is living in a delusion. In some countries, cause is religion and enforcement of religious/ethical views and teachings upon everyone else, in some states it is feminism and sex-monopolly in a promiscuous environment and legal enforcement (punishments) of such activity. I think the ethics/moral could have been the reason for some countries but it's quite obvious that general attitude and legislation is fully favoring prostitution by other actions.
Well, I've always maintained that opposite sex friendships don't work out if either party is romantically interested and the feeling isn't mutual. Girls make great friends though. There are just some things you don't share with other guys besides possibly your dad or brother. That, and it's nice to take some of the testosterone/pride out of the equation and just be able to lay out how you really feel with someone.
Of course...unrequited love doesn't exactly make for a good relationship. But there are many guys that won't even bother being friends with a woman unless she's putting out, they say it's just not worth it. That just goes to show that those men see women as nothing more than sex objects because they obviously have nothing to offer the men past the physical component.
I have some pretty messed up guy friends, but I also have some amazing ones, including my best friend. There is nothing romantic there, but he values me as a companion and that's what really matters.
I'm so glad a guy said that. It's usually the first thing that goes through my head when someone gets on here talking about it: "Must not be getting any, himself."
But, you know, if a woman says that, she's being "defensive" or must be sleeping with half the county, herself.
The mentality is pretty much "if I'm not happy aint NOBODY gonna be happy"
I equate it as uptight and prudish. Being liberal about sex also represents being able to talk about it, not being tight lipped.
Being liberal about sex means you don't have a conservative approach to what sexuality should and shouldn't be. It has nothing to do with whether or not you want to talk about your sexuality publicly. What you're willing to do is irrelevant to what you're willing to tell other people. If you don't understand the difference, that's your problem, not mine.

Not talking about sex is a conservative approach. You are the one who is confused

I'm surprised you want to hear about it.
