I'm a 'no'

The current laws may stop some girls before they go into the industry, or having caught them early stop them. Legallising it will not do them any favours.

Also like Waitrose or Asda, some will always shop at the cheap end of the market so there will always be the illegal side of it.

Besides I don't want more competition

Legal as in have an amsterdam style window shopping street? I know someone who uses a site that he recently told me about. When I typed in killerbees (swap killer for adult and bees for work) on google I was pretty astonished to be honest. Police can monitor sites can't they so if they let those type of sites remain they're practically saying it's alright.

Actually this mate of a mate (he's from Birmingham so there ya go ) uses the site and the way he described some of the girls is different to the classic hep b drug junkie looking for a quick fix. Some are just students that go to a respectable uni and wanna make more money on the side.

Worrying that, you just never know what the girls (or guys) around your uni/work may be getting up to.

Imagine the Health and Safety brigade marching into a legalised brothel.
"Sorry Sir, you cannot use that condom, as it is not the required length. Rule 46b says the condom, which you are holding right now Sir, should be at least 10 inches in length and be able to stretch the girth to upto 4 inches. Don't want any whoops now do we Sir!"
"And sorry Miss, but the lubrication that you are using is not legal as it will not lubricate for more than 10 minutes. We cannot allowing any chaffing, very dangerous."

Ste.

No they're not, there have been cases in my neck of the woods of brothels/call girls running websites that have been raided and shut down.

The websites puported to be dating agencies, but they were a conduit to the brothel or call girl.

Many of these girls won't always be students, some of them will have been duped or trafficed here from Eastern Europe, no matter what the ad says.

Just depends on the Police forces priorities, its still illegal

As long as there is war or women/men in relative poverty, prostitution will remain. Trying to control the supply of a drug is one thing, trying to stop a person from selling their body is practically impossible and the cause of the problem is what would need to be tackled - ie the economy.

The hookers in amsterdam aren't Dutch, they're all mainly from war torn eastern european countries such as Russia, Bulgaria, Hungary etc.

Well that's good and reassuring to hear, but I think it makes little difference and virtually an impossible area to police efficiently.

Not most/many are students, just saying they're not all the stereotypical junkie druggy prozzy that we would expect.
