Likewise your comment is only valid so long as all participants are willing and voluntary. Legalization doesn’t not address that concern.

- sneak 6y agoIt does, as anyone forced into prostitution without consent could then seek standard legal remedies for things like kidnapping/battery/coercion/etc. So long as it remains illegal, that's basically impossible.
- austincheney 6y agoSo by that logic legalizing child pornography and child prostitution would eliminate the harms associated with those. I am going to disagree with that, not only because its baseless, but also because its absurd.
- novok 6y agoChildren are not adults and so cannot sexually consent is the basis of most laws that prevent that.
- austincheney 6y agoAgreed. Legalization is not a cure all.
- betwixthewires 6y agoLol "adults transacting a mutually agreed exchange should not be prohibited by law" "oh so you want to rape little babies then?" Come on man get fucking real. You're being obviously disingenuous. I can tell by the word hoops you're jumping through that you know there's no logic to your argument, you're deliberately using words like "eliminate harms associated with those" to gloss over the fact that the harms are different and have different causes. You have no argument along this line, and you know it, and making arguments you know don't hold up is banal and lowly.
