Hello everybody,
Regarding the Legalisation of Prostitution,
Instead of Legalising it, better to empower prostitutes.
Prostitution, if legalised, will become an institution.
But if the Prostitutes are empowered financially, from other than Prostitution, its's better.
They will become a real power or pressure group, if financially free.
Hence, make them financially free - must be the goal of every NGO or Government.
No women enters prostitution out of passion.
Ditching and Traficking is there.

Is govt. able to curb the prostituition in India ? No. prostitution is flourishing like anthing......Daily news cn be heard about sex rackets operations. How can prostitution be stopped? Just arresting sex workers is not solution because once they come out they start their business. Sex workers are active hidenly all over India. Prostitution activities cannot be curbed fully. Then, question arises why not to legalise it through making amendments in cosntituon of India.. It will be beneficial in a number of way mentioned below:

1. Govt. can earn revenue through it by levying service tax on prostituon services.

2. Decrease in Number of rape cases as people will have easy and safe access to sex workers.

3. Sex workers can be provided separate places to operate and access to any residential areas can be prohibited to them. It will help sex workers to keep away from the society as they can operate without fear to their places provided to them.

4. Govt. can directly make arrangement for safe intercourse and hence decrease the cases of AIDS all over India.

Some intellectual opine that it will force more and more girsl to prostitution by middlemen. I think it is quite irrelevant. You can see even in present scenario it is happening and in case such cases notices action are taken by the police. Even after legalisation of prostituin forced sex will remain crime and legal action will be taken against the erring person. .......


Sorry if I hurted anyones feelings ... its just my opinion .

do you really feel that rapes are committed because people dont have access to sex workers? and do you beleive that government can implement the restrictions on the prostitutes from entering residential areas when you have yourself admitted that govt has been unable to control prostitution? if at all this arrangement can indeed be worked out by say, employing a policeman for each prostitute, are we not denying the prostitutes their right of leading a normal family life and being part of the society and not being a pariah.

Dont bother. everyone is entitled to one's opinion as long as one puts it politely and without aggression as you have done. the beauty of this site is that it provides everyone to express their views and get them scrutinised by the other members. that helps in improving one's logical thinking and in being better equipped for the personality test and the essay paper.

I think people want to have sex at any time unaccessable to get their partner. If they dont feel safe to go to sex workers as it is counted as crime. So, they aim at the vulnerable girls and make them pray after finding safe and deserted places. If it is legalised, such people can fearlessly access to sex workers. Hence, it can help in reduction of rape cases.(quote)

New for us but already in existence in some countries. May be it attract a fierce opposition from our conserved and narrow-minded society. But even it is not legalised it will go on at same rapid pace. At least, we can make society more safer and enhance Govt. revenue by legalising it.(quote)

AIDS
STDS
Human Traffickking

This can be done by issuing may be ID cards to the sex workers on basis of their age and physical condition i.e. HIV/ AIDS and other sexual diseases.

Cracking Down on elements who force women and minor into trade.

Legalising of prostitution does not mean just legalise. There would be some conditions and restrains to prevent the forced flesh trafficking like ban on making publishing add in any sort of media/print media to hire sex workers. They will be provided Identity cards facility and routine check-up will be done by Govt. authority to investigate if any forced trafficking is being done by meeting sex workers. And so many other conditions can be put to prevent our educated and honored family ladies to adopt the profession.
