Should Prostitution Be Legalized?

      Prostitution can be a very touchy subject for people due to the negative connotation that surrounds the act, but prostitution could be beneficial in several ways if it were legalized in the United States. Prostitution is legal in many countries around the world according to ScoopWhoop.com. Some of the countries included are Canada, France, and Australia. There is one state within the United States that has some legalized prostitution and that is Nevada. Prostitution may be legal in Nevada, but it comes with a number of rules and regulations issued by the government. Some of these regulations include not placing a brothel within 400 yards of a school or house of worship, and submission to HIV testing. Other rules and regulations regarding Nevada brothels can be found on the website criminal defense lawyer.
     According to Business Insider some of the positive outcomes with legalizing prostitution include a reduction in violence against women, healthier sex workers, and a source of tax revenue. In contrast to the idea of positive outcomes related to legalizing prostitution, Cat Winter National claims that there is no evidence that legalization makes things better for women. Many others like Fredy Tlatenchi feel the same way about the topic. This individual originally felt that prostitution should be legalized, but in hindsight feels that the profession will never change, or be safe for women,
     There's a lot of contrasting opinions on the topic of prostitution, and legalizing it can be argued from either side. Both sides have valid points. For example, people that are pro-legalization feel that sex is freely dispensed; so why is it a question of morality? On the other hand, anti-legalization people feel that prostitution is an institution of evil. Numerous pros and cons are argued among websites and blogs; one of which being prostitution.procon.org. Ultimately, the decision is yours. Should prostitution be legalized? You decide.
