Should Sex Work Should Be "Decriminalized"?

[JudgeJoeGorilla]

In my opinion, s*x work should not be seen as regular work. You simply can not buy someone, even for a x amount of time to use them and change to another term to justify it. Even if it's "consensual", it's still exploitation, as simple as that.

Your moral/ethical judgement, should stand beyond what law and constitution permits you.

I never said it should be seen as regular work. Decriminalization just means you can't go to jail for it. However, this isn't regular work. If this is a consenting adult, then it shouldn't matter and remember they are paying for sex not really the person. The point is, that there should be a way out for the sex worker.

I liked where the whole consent thing was bringing us, however sex work should not be legal but I also think that the desperate women in these industries should not be the ones facing jail as they are exploited.
The guys who buy and pimp these girls should face the law and sex work should be cracked down on as it is a sign of moral decay and lures in young poor and gullible women into selling their bodies.

Agreed. Here in Scandinavia, we have what's called the Nordic model for sex trade legislations, that many countries are adapting or considering it. Basically, it's illegal to buy s*x, but not to use your body for those services. In other words, the 'victim' is relieved, but the "offender" is prosecuted. I totally agree with this law.

Sorry, I confused the topic for something else.

With all due respect; in principle, I still don't agree that there can be "consensual" s*x work.

If you are a Muslim, I think this should be absolutely out of the question. From a Muslim standpoint, I think it should be beyond question that "sex work" should be prohibited.

I am not politically active but the type of shit liberals say when It comes to anything regarding sex and gender is absolutely mind boggling. Consent isn't an excuse to pay the 18 yrs old girls down the street for a one night stand, that is a morally degraded society that no longer values sex.

I'm not gonna take the holier than thou stance so If you wanna have fun with girls then go literally anywhere people socialise and meet someone. But don't go around paying for sex like a hopeless incel

Not legal, just decriminalized.

You are entitled to have your opinion. I'm just arguing from a Constitutional (Liberty) standpoint.

I understand but how would you create a society where you can give people chances to get out of the sex work life instead of driving it further underground and making it more dangerous for the victims

This is why the U.S. Government needs to work with these businesses to create apprenticeships for Sex Workers to learn a skillset.

that is another topic. how to go and make things a nicer society where people don't do illegal things like for example armed robbery. that is another question. but there are certain basic principles that are beyond question. for example- the society should not tolerate armed robbery. we can talk about the poor criminals and their sad childhoods or whatever but whatever sob stories they come with- there is no question that society should not tolerate armed robbery.

allowing for, tolerating "sex work" is out of the question just like tolerating armed robbery is out of the question. if you're a Muslim, you're a Muslim one hundred percent of the time. you're not a Muslim when you pray at the masjid and then some sort of non-Muslim when you think about social and political issues. you don't think the way a kaffir does. very clearly, "sex work" is not something to be accepted.

just like the other day someone talked about suicide. I said very clearly how suicide is never the answer. suicide is out of the question. "sex work" is out of the question. armed robbery is out of the question. what to do about people who are tempted to engage in these behaviors, how to help them- that is another topic. but a basic, starting, guiding principle is that these things are never to be tolerated.

if we can come up with how to make every society a socialist utopia where no one will be ever be tempted to kill themselves or commit armed robberies or engage in prostitution or resort to crime or whatever... well I guess that is what it is. but I don't claim to have that kind of solution or that such a solution exists. poverty and desperation has been around and very likely will continue to be around. I feel bad for people who turn to armed robbery or getting involved in crime. I hear that many people join terrorist groups out of desperation and that the groups offer them money. if people join a khawarij group out of desperation- should we cry about their poor childhood and not fight them? I feel bad for them but they still have to get dealt with.

However, our government is truly designed to work the way it's currently working now.

“Liberation” from what?? Their clothes, modesty, self-esteem and self-respect?

It’s not just about them or their lives. This is rotting the society on a large scale. Its impact is far reaching. It will greatly impact the young and inexperienced in life. All who love and care for children (if single & child less) should protect kids.

The reality is that the lives of those people isn’t as glamorous or happy as they make it seem. They are selling the youth a lie and decriminalizing it will allow it to spread more.

This literally has nothing to do with children. I've stated that we should steer children away, but this is an issue that we have with consenting adults. Also, I stated that we need to create an exit plan for them, so they can learn a skillset like in tech or healthcare.

What the adults do will still affect the children! Why do you feel the need for an exit plan in the first place lol

I feel a need for an exit plan because no one grows up wanting to be a sex worker. This isn't a desired profession and injustices in place have created this market towards certain undesired person's.

 

[hinters]

No.

 

[Somali Saayid]

Execute them. Society must be rid of those who think in such a way.

 

[AbdiFreedom]

No. We need to be governed by traditional, cultural values. Its human nature to try to defy it during your younger years but you eventually need to swing back. Those that don't destroy themselves and their communities. At the very least, it must be done out of plain sight. Forget about prostitution, please do not have sex outside of marriage at all. It will wreck your soul. What I'm saying is a moot point anyway considering we are witnessing societal decay and collapse.Those who are culturally conservative need to have more empathy though. They are losing because they are too mean and have no naxariis. But I will say I don't care when the few men/women die while engaging in this business. Rather them than they take all of society down with them.

You're not being realistic. Also, that would be against international law. Sir, you're speaking from emotion not logic.

I love having dialogue with you all
