I know this is because of religious influence, but I think it's absolutely bonkers that prostitution is illegal. We're talking about consenting adults selling a service that harms nobody, and that's illegal. But what makes it even crazier is that it is legal if it's filmed and sold. So if I'm willing to have sex for money, I can't legally do so. But if I'm willing to have sex for money, then show the world, that's all good.
Yes, but you've got a good point. People say it's because prostitution traumatizes the prostitute, and in many cases, that's true, but not all. That's like saying that because some people become traumatized after bungee jumping, we should outlaw bungee jumping.
