More Gay Repubs in Office

[Kansuke]

It's not a theory.

prostitution is legal and overseen in a few countries.
Forward thinking western liberal democracies such as Germany for instance.

Scandanavia as well.

look at their violent sex crime stats and you tell me that non-oppression and egalitarian stance on sex workers is bad for society?

seriously, the data from those countries will make your assumptions and supposition look like torn threads on the floor. Not useful for much.

I'm the sure women in The Netherlands who don't get raped because it's legal there would find solace in your righteous indignation.

"Belgium, Germany, Greece, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Thailand, Turkey and the United States are countries ranked "very high" as destination countries of trafficked persons."

So, given that the laws are totally different in the U.S. and the Netherlands, and that the U.S. still makes the list, at best one can state that the Netherlands has more, but that neither approach is all that good.

Not to mention that the countries supplying the trade are highly sexually repressive to women under any circumstances.

It's a complex issue, and one in which the last to be punished are the ones causing direct violence.
