(42,531 posts)But my argument is this, until we get past gender inequalities, including sexual ones ie. Women should feel just as comfortable visiting a prostitute, (the availability of chosen partners should be the same)the income disparities between genders is eradicated, until the female body is no longer innapproriatly sexualized, OR both sexes are equally sexuaialized and objectified, there is always going to be an underground market, as shown in countries where it is legal.
To successfully legalize, there is no reason why the stability of purchasers shouldn't be assessed. With the "legialize and regulate" rhetoric, I hear tossed around, when it comes to details, I usually hear things like mandatory STD testing. Fine. Johns should have mandatory testing as well. Married Johns should sign a financial agreement taking responsibility for subsequent lawsuits. I can think of a dozen other details.
