    Your position is far more right wing than mine or others are :pac:

    course it is, watch the o'reilly factor, hannity or glenn beck debate on this subject as they have in the past, which side of the argument do they fall on, yours or mine ;)
    You are the one advocating that we should capitalise on sexuality. In a socialist system or even a system with a greater degree of economic equality, there would be no place for prostitution as I've already pointed out.

    you are assuming i am a socialist, i ain't
    If everyone had an equal provision of assets and wealth there would be no reason why prostitutes would be in business

    you can't honestly believe this, things like attractiveness, age, weight and numerous other factors would still play a part in choosing sexual partners. during stalins time as leader of russia, the number of women becoming prostitutes rose significantly
    Drawing limits on what can be bought and sold != "right wing".

    no but using your morals (for the betterment of society) to force the prohibition of goods and services is
    As for regulation, it has failed in the countries where it is legal. This is why I don't believe in it.

    or so you say, there are many benefits to it being legalised, one is health, no legal licensed prostitute has ever tested positive for hiv in nevada, try that test in any state where prostitution is illegal..............

    rossie1977 - Social conservatism != right wing.

    Liberal - Conservative is entirely different to left and right which have to do with economics. Again, capitalising on sexuality is much more right wing than left. Indeed, it is also incredibly liberal.

    Left - Right spectrum is inadequate for discussing social issues. I'm personally a centrist on an economic level as I think that the State shouldn't stay out of regulating the economy, or about drawing lines as to what is ultimately good or bad for the general society.

    As for conservatism, I would consider it the pragmatic and logical process of ensuring that all changes to the legal system are advantageous before pursuing them. This is why I oppose prostitution. It isn't advantageous, the problems remain and the negatives outweigh other superior and positive approaches such as the Swedish system on prostitution.

    So yes, I'm a social conservative because I believe that changes should be made carefully and in a considered manner. Our society deserves better than legalising what is harmful frivolously.

    Prostitution in a dedicated district like in Amsterdam I would have no problem with. The women are looked after, aren't at the mercy of pimps and get regular check-ups by dedicated health professionals. Wherever it exists it should be run by women. Making prostitution illegal only drives it underground where it becomes a pimp's paradise and plays right into the hands of sex traffickers.
    As for me, I personally would not pay for sex. I'm with Einhard on this: 'I couldn't sleep with a prostitute...well I could, but not in her capacity as a prossy...not because it's immoral or any of that kind of thing but I just imagine it to be so sterile and perfunctionary. I imagine the act of paying for sex with a woman who has absolutely no interest in you, possibly despises you, is more demeaning for the punter than the provider.

    Having said that, of course prostitution should be legalised. It's a no-brainer. What the hell are we do legislating for morality in the first place?! It's not as if the service provided is somehow illicit or dangerous. And regulation is the only way that the safety of the working girls can be guaranteed.

    You assume wrong.
    If you are out in the pub, see a nice girl in a nice sexy dress, get chatting, buy her a few drinks, have a laugh etc etc, you spend all night trying to convince her to sleep with you and you may get your hole or you may not.
    That's what chatting up a flirting is all about and any bloke who comes on here and denies this is a liar. Married, single or in a relationship or not, a bloke out on the town without the missus will try it on with every bit of skirt he sees.

    I just cut out all that crap - just cash up front and then the best sex with the most gorgeous women in Dublin.

    Suits you, Sir.

    People keep referring to females and seem to forget that there are many male prostitutes not just female.

    In any case, I for one don't have a problem for as long as no one is being forced to do so and actually think there should be legalized places for them to work from.

    This would make it safer, cleaner, healthier and generate taxes, all good things.

    Becoz of their accent, their tan, their better shape bodies, their dress sense, their perfume, the way the wear their hair and make up, their earings, and lets be honest now foreign girls win Irish girls 10 nil in bed. That's just a brief explanation I could go on.

    All other considerations being equal many People (Male and Female) have a tendency to find people of exotic (to them) races/nationalities more sexually attractive. There are probably strong underlying biological reasons why this is so.

    Therefore one reason why one encounters a large proportion of foreign nationals working in the sex industry is that they realise they can often attract a premium over the locals.

    Okay, here's my tuppence worth:

    No, I wouldn't visit a prostitute. I'd be just too inhibited.

    No, I wasn't aware that there is no law against prostitution in the Irish Republic. It is illegal in the UK.

    I wouldn't visit a prostitute in Belfast, or anywhere in the North. There are so many rackets being run by the UDA (there's precious little else for them to do these days) and there's no way I'd want my money going into their filthy hands.
