Prostitution has been legal in Nevada for a long time and none of these things have happened. Just because something is legalized, it doesn’t mean it’s appropriate for a professional context.
- rainieri 9y agoYeah sounds a lot like are we going to legalize marrying a dog next?
- askafriend 9y agoThe only reason not to would be because of additional beauracratic overhead of supporting such an edgecase. Otherwise who cares if some people want to marry a dog. Just because you make it legal doesn’t mean everyone is all of a sudden going to start marrying dogs...
- roywiggins 9y agoUsually both parties to a marriage are meant to be able to consent to it, so, no. The other problem is that animals aren't legal persons and can't take part in contracts, let alone marriage.
- domevent 9y agoWhy do people always go right to bestiality whenever someone wants their rights to be respected? Gay people marrying, omg they’re going to marry dogs next! No... they won’t. And they haven’t. I think it’s judt a way to try and instill disgust without having to own it, in other words, a dog whistle.
- s2g 9y agoIt's really weird. Beastiality or children, right away. Consent can have some gray areas (which is why people push for affirmative consent) but children/animals clearly cannot consent. A person who is a victim of trafficking is not consenting.
- coldtea 9y agoWell, "marrying a dog" or "fucking a dog" for that matter, hasn't been part of human society of all kinds for millennia. Prostitution has. Nor is marrying a dog the exact same act as an otherwise totally acceptable act, but done for money (as is prostitution vs regular sex). I think we should absolutely penalize bogus argumentation, where those making haven't spent more than a second thinking it out...
