89. SO much for allowing someone to sell themselves if they want

what of the women (and men) who CHOOSE to prostitute themselves? obviously to the poster they have something inherently wrong with them.

Then theirs the FACT that (for the most part) ALL sex has a cost... Dinner, Movies or other date activities. <-- even then sex is not guaranteed. (without mentioning STD's

Why is it those that would prefer to pay cash, skip the small talk and "romance" get bashed so harshly?

At least where it is LEGAL the prostitutes must have regular exams against STD's. best of luck out in the rest of the world without universal health care or absolute honesty between parners.
