What Sex Workers Want

no, I always thought is clear that they were not in love, that it was just for money. I thought it was common knowledge actually. I think that it's wrong. I also think the guys involved know it too and financially whore themselves out. nothing legitimizes anything here though. they are all still doing wrong to eachother. however, they are within the confines of marriage. marriage does mean something. yes, there are cheapening the sanctity and really not living up to the responsibilties. that is too bad. not all women are like that. not all men are like that. most are not quite that selfish. however, those faux examples of marriage does not portray the life of whores, assuming they are only sleeping with eachother as in any healthy marriage.

wow, good point.

Do you really want to live in a world as you have described? You are correct that a part (sadly it seems to be growing) of society feel the way you do. However, put these same people catostrophic or dire situation and they all seem to find some kind of religion. If they don't find at least a temporary spiritual awakening, they certainly don't turn down ALL the services offered by the religios right. I myself am a sinner. I go to church because I am a sinner and need the help Christ can give me. I am no better or worse than you, just more enlightened. For your sake, get off your high horse and leave those of us trying to make this a better place to live. Please pray for me, I am a sinner!!!

cowboy2121,
fyi, as an enlistee, I know that anybody in the enlisted military can retire as early as age 37 without having even done that well.. maybe just an E-5. you're quite arrogant and I know you don't and won't have healthy relationships. poor guy

I wasn't talking about you...I was talking about the hookers :-)

part three

No one is talking about allowing trafficking of children, legalizing child porn, or legalizing women exploitation against an adult female's will (not exploitation of children) or other crimes related to it. We are talking about legalizing prostitution between consenting adults, not children. And then we were talking about the crimes committed against women in those professions, which extended to trafficking, child exploitation, which clearly, is wrong. I did mention age with trafficking, but I was stretching it by implying that traffickers would have to fly right and abide by the rules- if you limit the age of trafficking to adults and you only "traffic" consenting adults, then what you have really is a brothel, not exploitation, abuse or crime. I know no woman says, hey I want to be a prostitute, but there are women who are in the profession and never got out of it, who made bad decisions and got into trouble. I was saying that even pimps would have to come clean- so that would mean not forcing someone into it, beating them up when they do not make enough money, etc. I was just saying that since a long time ago, prostitution was a problem and it did not stop people from doing it- people pay for sex if it is available and they want to pay and since there are women who do it for whatever reasons. If prostitution is legalized, then there will be laws to regulate it and surely that will include age limits, other boundaries, laws and expectations. By the way, child exploitation in this country is illegal, while in other countries it is not. No one is saying go ahead, rape a child or adult female, sell them as slaves or sell them to "houses" of prostitution. We are talking about sex between consenting adults which some people pay for. Adults between adults, not adults and underaged people.

Part two...
So why not regulate prostitution so people cannot exploit children or women restricting what traffickers do? What they really do is they make them do something against their will and they do it by putting them in a position where they are exploited repeated and continually exposed to violence by either the trafficker or client. At least an adult knows what they are getting into and can decide for themselves, a child cannot. As long as there are males and females, there is going to be sex.

Certainly, we know people have sex before marriage males and females alike since we talk about it, since there are teen pregnancies, single moms and dads and plenty of people dating around, unmarried people talking about their experiences with sex. Children are molested even in family homes and women are raped or otherwise abused every day. Just no one talked about it then like we do today. Prostitution has been around for a long time, probably since people discovered sex. You cannot tell me that men were faithful to women, women were faithful to them this whole time of human existence and everyone waited for marriage. In fact, in some cultures, male relationships with men are more important that with women. They marry to have children, but they go clubbing with other men and to have sex. That is in some cultures and within marriage to a woman. In some cultures, it is a man's wealth that is determined by how many wives he has. What is rare is the woman who has marriage to multiple men. But it happens. Idiotic and careless? Try getting real with what is really happening in the world as well as what happened in the past with Ancient Rome with men and women, other cultures with concubines, courtisans.. Sumer (2300 BC) one of the kings abolished polyandry... According to the bible, there were two different kinds of prostitutes: one who solicits for exchange of goods and a sacred prostitute (a male or female) who had sex with worshippers of a god or goddess because they believed the offering would bring them good materials later. Prostitution has been written in every culture throughout history, only now we talk about it more.

Lilith was made from the same way Adam was in the garden of Eden, equal parner, equal temptation to sin. Eve was made later and from Adam's ribs bc Lilith was banished from the garden. New scrolls found in recent research indicated new "stories" from biblical times that there were ???two??? women for Adam and that Lilith as the jealous one, was symbolized as the snake or as a woman who enticed and tricked men into sin. There are some other theories about who Lilith was, if she really existed, and what it all meant, where it all fits. But we know Eve was tempted by sin too. Man is human, so is woman and we make the humankind together and we are all susceptible to sin..

There are plenty of people who love sex, males and females, as humans are naturally interested in sex. But some pay for it. How they ???pay for it??? matters? If some adult is selling it and some adult wants to buy, the exchange will take place. Golddiggers are willing to sacrifice sex to get money and don???t really care about the person they are involved with as long as she gets what she wants. Some women date many men to ???get money??? while having the appearance of a ???relationship???, so do men who don???t want a commitment, but date a lot of women having sex with all of them and some who give women money for reasons such as ???helping them pay their bills???. Some people in committed relationships use men for money still, while the men mess around too. Adultery and money issues are the main reasons people divorce. Dating and marriage really is not different from prostitution when people ARE using people (regardless of real feelings for the other person or not) for what they do not get at home or for the money they want, with the exception of ???quality relationship content and behaviors??? of those who are committed and loyal to each other. In the prostitute exchange, it is just in exchange for sex and money without the hassle of relationship behaviors.

Face it: some marry for money, security, obligation, to not be in the dating game anymore, to not be alone all the time, for procreation etc., while others marry because they believe they found the right partner, believe they are in love for sure and that have an understanding that both will devote their time to the quality of the relationship and future family that both will and want to take care of together. So the absence of commitment or with the intention of a possible future relationship in the ???traditional sense??? makes any other exchange wrong? Sorry, but the majority of the population has had sex before marriage, well before it was out in the open. The stuff people do in between is shopping for that person- just some do not shop in one place all the time. People who buy sex are only shopping for sex. People who commit crimes related to it are doing it for the money in the exchange for sex only.

Hey--uh--not an accurate analogy there..... if one is speeding and gets hurt or hurts others, they are shunned. yes, they get medical care, but not extra special care that the prostitutes are looking for. we do NOT prosecute the or shun a football player for getting hurt because he's not doing anything wrong to begin with. it's not "personal feelings" about prositution that bothers us narrow-minded individuals, it's spiritual conviction. crazy, insane godly conviction. if you play with fire (knowing full well that it is hot) and get burned, you should be able to get medical help, you should be able to even cry about it, but to do it over and over again and get the same results ---disease, abuse...death---is only to literally define insanity!

wow, supply creates demand ? I always thought it was the other way around. I am assuming you are not a free market guy , huh ? Because if you are, you just slammed yourself in the face by me using your own argument against you. The demand for a product or service fuels the supply, not the other way around. Remember prohibition with alchohol? They tried taking all the supply away, and it just kept growing regardless. I guess the must have not gotten rid of enough of the supply which is why they had problems. LOL.
