It really makes sense in a lot of ways

#1 is the potential to regulate through licensing to try and prevent trafficking of minors and trafficking period.

Massachussetts seems to lump in consenting sex for money between adults in the same bucket as underage rape and that is not right. I think most of the people on here are not interested in finding underage providers and a 45 year old guy having consensual sex with a 40 year old provider (who says she's 30 ;)) should not be treated the same way.

There are potential problems though. If you license prostitutes and there is a database it can be hacked into. Also I wonder if a lot of providers will balk at suddenly having to pay taxes?

On the positive side though the providers wouldn't have to live in fear of the IRS finding out which is a very real possibility. We have all seen crazy or vengeful behavior on here and calling the IRS would be the ultimate revenge.

I countries like Germany where it is legal it does so very discreetly. If you walked by a brothel in Germany you would never know it.

Huh. 44% approve of legalization of the world's oldest profession, that's higher than I would have expected.

The FKKs in Germany are really great, fun and safe with a very large variety of women. I am not sure now they are licensed nor how taxes are collected, but you never hear of any issue with them, although I am sure there are.  Holland is the same way, a trip through Amsterdam's Red Light district is a total hoot.

I have heard that Holland is having problems with Eastern European gangsters taking over though. I mistakenly went into a clip joint in Paris controlled by them and had to literally run out of there to get away.

The US is way too prude and puritanical to have those numbers and it's only getting worse with all the people cashing into the rescue industry and the push of this narrative in public opinion through media, churches, politicians, LE, court system, "non-profits",.......  In 2008 ballot K in San Francisco (which is not representative of America) proposed to decriminalize sex work and with all the momentum it had got to 42% of votes. It that had passed maybe we could have seen a ripple effect like the one we see with marijuana laws and a shift in general public perception. I would bet in the rest of the country, aside from Portland perhaps, the number barely goes over 15%. And it's not a partisan issue. The moral agenda of the liberals in the US is remarkably puritanical. So don't hold your breath.

Would have sex with robots, according to a story on Drudge, which makes me think the other 85% misunderstood the question.
