Prostitution should be legal

02-02-2004, 00:47
I believe that prostitution should be legal, as long as it is practiced safely and freely, for this mater, each country should establish health controls to prevent sexual diseases form spreading among the population. Countries should also develop better legislation in order to punish sex slavery and the enforcement of this activity. What we should condemn are pimps organizations and their acts of abuse.

I am confused why you are posting this. Are you just advocating the UN resolution up for debate? Do you want to debate wethere it should be legal?

Let's make the world safe for all people who don't harm others. I think that as long as everyone is consenting, all adults should be able to have sex. Whether it's for pleasure, or money. Unwanted pregnanices can be handled with abortion or birth control, and stds with medical research, etc. I think it's important that everyone know the consequences of having casual sex, and once they know those, they should be able to make their own decisions.

Wouldn't it be better to support social programs that help the poor find work, housing, and a place in society than say go screw yourselves and we will tax you for doing such?

Wouldn't this also spread disease?

No one said you have to tax them. Your statment tacitly implies that there is a severe unemployment problem and your position, wittingly or otherwise, prevents people from finding the work that they want.

Wouldn't this also spread disease?

Disease spreads regardless of whether prostitution is legal. I challenge you to find any data supporting a correlation between legal prostitution and the spread of STDs. With legalization comes regulation and quality control -- mandate condoms, testing, provide social care, police protection from abuse, any number of beneficial programs that you cannot establish until the profession is legal.

These are all wonderful points that the Confederation of Mikitivity wholely agrees with.

However, the delegate from Jarielf offers another excellent point that should be considered more: "countries should ALSO develop better legislations ..."

Regardless of the outcome of the current resolution before the UN, it would be nice if a nation with the ability to create proposals (i.e. having 2 or more endorsements from its local regional group) could create another resolution doing just that.

The arguements against the current proposal include many that focus on the nature of the activity of the people many of the supports consider victims. If the current resolution fails, perhaps a strong statement based on the delegate from Jarielf's ideas would be worth investing time into?

Is your delegate one the sex deprived, mentally ill individuals voting in favour of bizzare proposals like this?

Concerned about the UN's recent desire to enforce sexual deviancy, human slavery and overstep it's powers? I'll speak out and vote for you, join Moralia (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/24202/page=display_region)

It is the view of the Tyreean Empire, that although prostitution is legal in the Empire, it is wrong for the UN to impose this on other nations that wish not to legalise it. States should have the right to regulate morality as they see fit.

This resolution does nothing to further global security.

As a Holy Republic, our nation is centred on the freedom of its people but also the sacred nature of our bodies.

Prostitution makes the human body a commodity, to be sold and used by whoever feels like it.

While we are very liberal in our views towards sexual freedom, sexuality, sex education and personal freedoms we feel that the act of paying for sex is wrong.

Nobody should be in a position where they have to sell their bodies to get by. Sex is a pleasure and should be enjoyed, but prostiution is slavery and the pleasure is rarely mutual.

:shock:

I am seriously shocked at this Proposal, and Its voting results thusfar. Supporting the role of Prostitution in a government has got to be the worst excuse for sacrifising human well being in exchange for larger government tax dividends and perversion I have ever heard. Prostitution is an awful and sick practice. There are other ways of helping the poor, I you honestly think that the United Nations need to legalize purchased sex to help people that can't get bey, then you obviously have no Idea what you are talking about. Maby desiese already is a problem, but its only going to get spread worse and develop faster in small communities if you allow the legalization of store bought sex.

There is no miracle on earth that would allow Medical Reaserch to ever catch up to all of the STD's in the world if this is passed. DO you know how STD's got started, with prostitution, some historical reaserch shows that STD's and STI's were a porblem all the way back in Ancient Cultures such as the Messopotamian's and the Createn's before them. You think your helping the poor? you are only giving them a better reason to get poorer, do you honestly think that making 300$ in a weekend for selling your body would even pay for all of their medical bills and birth control. Maby you dont get it, populations would explode.

We already established that these people are poor, they cant pay for protection and pills and abortions. And then there is the common Man, who is just getting poorer because they blow half their paycheck on sex and the other half on creams to sooth the itching they have from an undefined strain of Herpes that they got that has no treatemnt. This entire proposal is absolutly and mortaly insane.

If it passes I will not allow it in Daerivia, in fact, I say that if this thing passes I will propose to abolish it, and if that doesn't pass, I'll just quit the UN all togetherbecause I cannot think of associationg with something quite so sick and inhumane. This is not a UN desision, it not even political, its just some sick assholes way to make the world a even worse place to live in. People If you really think about it the vote is NO! Lets try a more positive way than adultry to get people off the streets eh?
