Prostitutes have long been the vector of the most crippling diseases that the human race has ever known. More importantly, prostitution is the most ruthless "profession" that ever existed. Young women and increasingly young men who enter "the trade" come down with more than AIDS: they come down with stab wounds, gunshot wounds, drug addiction, they bring their children into this desultory practice, and finally, the whole mess ends in grimy death.
Excusing prostitution only encourages the most dangerous of its wanton perversion and makes its inherent vice a public health menace of the first order.
There is nothing fun or romantic about it. It only results in grisly death.
