Message | I think you will find that by making prositution illegal, AIDS is far more likely to spread than if prositution was legal and regulated and taxed by the government who could monitor the health of known prositutes, as occurs at present |

Message | You are all dirty people, prostitution is a dirty job and should be illegal. Until you can prove it does not spead AIDS I will not believe you because it does spread AIDS. |

Message | I didn't catagorically say that prostitution didn't spread AIDS or indeed any other STD because undoubtedly at the present time there are problems, but these are caused by the illegality of prositution - its secrecy, the mistreatment of women etc. By makig it legal and recognised, it allows the government much more control over it, being able to conduct health checks and enforce health standards which can reduce the spread of any STDs etc. On an unrelated point it can also provide a revnue stream for the government through taxation etc. |
