"Oh wow, thats disgusting..." (Buying plane tickets)

[JustK]

Might as well legalize it globally because it’s not going anywhere

[SumitKumar-oibb]

Better to pay and enjoy than being caught by a gold digger..

[pathomthavaradhara]

The coins has two side, it’s always debatable about prostitution,
“ Virtue vs Human rights “

[setsunatenma]

controlling it is better than trying to ban it.

[jpjay]

the problem is ILLEGAL prostitution. that's a very disgusting business.
happens everywhere, in every country, all the time.
human trafficking, guns, drugs, violence, where people are sold as slaves.
(incl the countries with legal prostitution)

[Rovsau]

It will happen either way, so hiding it will only cause harm.
If people have objections on morality, they can choose to abstain themselves.

[darsatdays]

Funny thing is prostitution is illegal in the US but guns are legal.. strange laws.. one makes others happy and is illegal.. the other brings sorrow.. but is legal

[keshavnuwal]

The main thing about this issue is, malpractices
Human trafficking, drugs and all
Human trafficking being the most problematic, capture a women, send her to other country, what choice does she have then, either be a sex slave or die

[sudipandatta]

It has been for thousands of years and will remain for thousands of years be it legal or illegal. However making it legal will make their lives easier and some might be even able to change their lives.

[rahulnaina]

It's legal in Hira mandi . But it's haram

[ankurroy]

It should be legalized. A win-win for everyone

[TheRock.]

Finally a piece of news for men of culture.

[pramodpagar]

It should be legal and protected by law so that proper health care can be provided to sex workers.

[jerinrinee]

Legalizing, regular inspection from the govt for underage or forced people, health safety all should there. Thus the way we can avoid creating more victims inside and outside of this business.

[jxxnmatt]

It's not a 'socal taboo', but for the masses that use it to control, it leaves them at a great disadvantage...very much so.

[papitoenza]

They should legalize everywhere to protect the rights of those who practice it

[maddog]

Thank you for the info., now I can plan my trips accordingly!

[rajpanda]

Didn't expect USA to ban it. It's banned in Japan too.

[subhmaypatra]

I am thankful to the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India which legalized prostitution in India
