She falsifies genuine affection to dupe lonely men desparate for love into paying off her house. In turn, when they are driven to financial ruin only to be dumped, these men are likely to adopt the attitude that women are just out to cheat men of their money, making them treat women (some of whom are genuinely good people) terribly. The cycle of abuse will continue unless someone wants to stop it. Demand for prostitution is almost impossible to stem. Because the prevailing system of mate selection is male competition and female choice, there will ultimately be out-competed males who experience a great degree of sexual frustration, thereby creating the demand for prostitution. In fact, scientists have even observed behaviour in apes such as males providing food for females in exchange for sexual favours. Moreover, it is not the problem here. The real problem is the strong social stigma against prostitution that drives prostitutes to ply their trade under shady and unsafe circumstances. If prostitution can be respected just like every other profession and prostitutes treated cordially like other workers who provide services, such as waitresses, everything would be fine. It's not necessarily mate competition that drives prostitution. For example, I recently read that 80% of patrons of prostitution in a subject city were married. And famous rich people are known to use prostitution all the time. I think men just like having sex with as many different women as possible and prostitution is an easy way to get the deed done without having fuss over things like dinner, mind games, and the rest of that stuff. Having said that, I agree that prostitution might as well be legal. I live in Toronto and prostitution is easy and available like going to to the convenience store. You won't find many women walking on the streets flagging down customers though. Most prostitutes advertise either online or in weekly papers. They call themselves 'escorts' of course and 'sex' or 'prostitution' is never printed in them but it's obvious what it is. It's out in the public. Cops know about it, politicians know about, but it's basically unacknowledged in our society. I really think it's better for all involved to be honest. | ||

I mean should it be recognized as a legitimate job i guess they can form unions and stuff, also its good for keep track of STD/HIV infections as you can make mandatory health checkups for them for the good of society ( prevents STDs from spreading so much) personally i dont see it EVER happening though =/. PS : Also another problem is that most girls that enter this market are mostly being exploited by pimps which are related to gangs and stuff. | ||

There really is no point in officially 'legalizing' prostitution. There's no money in it for the government. Johns won't be going to brothels because there's a stigma attached to paying for sex. Aside from sex, discretion is also why the system in Toronto works. The government can't regulate it it's way too hard. Guys who pay for sex don't want anyone to know they're doing it. It's the proverbial turn the other cheek. | ||
