No, I know many with that mindset that 'Just legalize it and tax it', and I don't think they realize, or more likely, care about the consequences of that. What happens to the little girls in poor, underclass communities, who view this as an EVEN MORE acceptable choice? Poverty does a lot of things, including compromising your morals, or how you were raised, now if you combine that, plus maybe not being raised all that well, with a legal alternative, you are setting up thousands for a life of prostitution. I see girls everyday that could get turned out, and they are just little girls from a poor community, who are vulnerable to exploitation, and perceived financial benefits. They aren't sluts or whore, they are victims, who deserve protection, not the kind of Darwinian bullshyt I see from the right wing.
Anyone of reasonable intelligence wouldn't argue that selling your body, for the vast majority is an incredibly damaging and devastating act, that degrades you in all ways, leaving wounds that will never heal. Check the levels of drug and alcohol addiction in prostitutes. Girls get recruited or choose up in middle school out here, we are talking 12 year olds getting sent OT and all that shyt, this will get worse of it's legalized.
IF it were to be legalized, it would have to tightly regulated, tighter, I think then is possible. If you are using Amsterdam as an example, they don't have the kind of poverty we do here, nor the policies that continue the inequality.
