Growing Number of Recent Prostitution Stings Fuels Legalization Debate Once Again

in prostitution •  6 years ago 

Most people would agree that it should be legal to sell something that you own. Most people would also agree that you own your own body. Most people agree that selling your labour should be legal.

Yet most people do not support legalized prostitution.

How is that logically consistent?

I think voluntary prostitution should be legal. Of course forced (or otherwise made) prostitution would still be illegal, as selling something you don't own is a no no.

Edit: Sorry, I used the wrong word above. Prostitution should be decriminalized, not legalized. The states does NOT have any legitimate authority over my body, period.

It's mine.

I own myself.

if only they'd separate endorsing the freedom of others to chose, with endorsing or supporting the action itself :/
