LEGALISE PROSTITUTION AS A TRADE

There are many arguments about this matter on whether it should be completely stopped or whether it should be legalized and then have all the precautions about all the risks that are involved taken care of by all the experts who are involved .

First are the arguments from those who are involved I it ,both male and female .They bitterly defend themselves when we try to raise this topic and if you are not careful ,it can even end up in fight. The main argument in their defense has always been the life's problems in the society .They blame it all on the problems that have resulted I this world from civilization .It is always the reason in one way or the other .They say that the main cause why they get in to the business is poverty .They have nowhere to go in order to earn an income and so0 they use the only readily available means of getting money from those who have it and that is their bodies .

IN the past, that is during our childhood, somewhere in the late seventies, I used to hear the grown ups of that time talking about this business. The police and other security and law enforcement departments in this country used to control up to prostitution .They used to go around the streets ,the night clubs ,the slums and the other places where this business was conducted .They used to watch the women so that under age girls could not get involved in the business and so that they didn't get hurt in it due ignorance and many other reasons .IF you watch the twilight business joints carefully , you will realize that there are ladies here whose ages have not reached eighteen years .That is the age where someone is considered as an adult in this country and given the freedom to make their own judgment and decisions .

And then, there is this problem of illiteracy and so on. Believe it or not, almost all prostitutes in this country are illiterate and everyone knows everything in this world that goes with illiteracy .That is to say that they know nothing in life about their safety against all the risks that are involved if they take part in the business. Believe I or not ,this people sometimes even go against the doctors advise about this risks and go on doing everything their own way .Some times back ,it was even whispered from the Hospitals that bad use of the drugs that are given out by the doctors for the treatment of the diseases that sexually transmitted causes the production of drug resistant strains or the diseases .The ignorant prostitutes
