I have never understood why the “oldest profession” is illegal in this country.\u00a0 There are some perfectly civilized countries where a woman has the right to exchange money for sex.\u00a0 Why not us?\u00a0 Aren’t we the land of opportunity ?!<\/strong><\/p>\n

So I Googled to see where Prostitution is legal and got this site:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Decriminalize Prostitution Now<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

And I was amazed at the number of countries where it’s legal.\u00a0 CANADA!!!\u00a0 Canada, people, Canada.\u00a0 And you wonder why they’re all so easy going! (I am seriously thinking of immigrating!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

It just makes no sense to make prostitution a crime.\u00a0 American’s use sex to sell EVERYTHING!\u00a0 Look at our media? Sheesh!<\/strong><\/p>\n

I still barely understand how porn is legal but prostitution isn’t.\u00a0 Because its “acting”?\u00a0 Really?\u00a0 You call that acting?\u00a0 Is it because the guy who cums is also getting paid?\u00a0 If he paid you $200 and you paid him $10 and a camera was involved…\u00a0 would that make it legal?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I shake my head as, once again, a select number are making laws encompassing us all based on their morals.\u00a0 This should be a personal choice.\u00a0 This should be licensed, regulated (minimally) and more importantly taxed! <\/strong><\/p>\n

Instead we get obsessions with purity and virginity.\u00a0 I’m sorry, but if you’re going to save yourself for marriage then you’d better expect those first few months of your marriage to be spent dealing with unrealized expectations!\u00a0 Not saying that “love” can’t conquer all, just saying when two people are on the exact same page sexually.. there is\u00a0 almost nothing more fun!<\/strong><\/p>\n

But I firmly believe a woman should have every opportunity\u00a0 to be self supportive.\u00a0\u00a0 Especially us slut-minded women.\u00a0 Isn’t everyone always saying.. “find a job doing what you love.”\u00a0 ??\u00a0 I was mentioning this with a FWB just the other day and he totally agreed with me.\u00a0 Then stopped himself.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Wait… would that mean…?”<\/strong><\/p>\n

I just smiled at him.
