That is not my point at all, nuttyjoe. My point is that if a woman has something that someone wishes to purchase, it shouldn't be illegal to do so. And there are places in Nevada where prostitution is legal. I was giving you the societal reasons for the illegality of prostitution. One could say that it is immoral to sell alcohol, but prohibition ended a very long time ago. The illegality of prostitution is a remnant of biblical ideas about morality.
And why can't a woman make a career choice based on what she is good at doing. Whether that be as a corporate CEO or as a prostitute? Why can't she sell sex if it isn't against her morality? That is called persuing liberty, and is protected under the Constitution. No one forces anyone to buy something or engage in behavior they find immoral, why must others push their morality on everyone else?
