10 Reasons for Not Legalizing Prostitution (c)

My friends!
I will be honest with you. This is not be or any other man who found so many reason for not legalizing prostitution. Certainly, it was the woman! And not only a woman but Janice G. Raymond who is the member of CATW (Coalition Against Trafficking in Women International). I found this article on the Internet (frankly speaking, it was not very difficult to find, you can easily find it by yourself if you are very interested in this question). This article is not very new (it was written in 2003.... Gosh, time goes so quickly!!!). And frankly speaking, it would be very interesting for me to know whether Janice has changed her mind after 6 years. Well, enough to speak! Here they are: 10 reasons to prohibit the prostitution:


1. Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution is a gift to pimps, traffickers and the sex industry.

2. Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution and the sex industry promotes sex trafficking.

3. Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not control the sex industry.It expands it.

4. Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution increases clandestine, hidden, illegal and street prostitution.

5. Legalization of prostitution and decriminalization of the sex Industry increases child prostitution.

6.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not protect the women in prostitution.

7.Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution increases the demand for prostitution. It boosts the motivation of men to buy women for sex in a much wider and more permissible range of socially acceptable settings.

8. Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not promote women's health.

9. Legalization/decriminalization of prostitution does not enhance women's choice.

10.Women in systems of Prostitution do not want the sex industry legalized or decriminalized.
