LEGALIZE
PROSTITUTION...Should it be?
Hy,
Pals!
Nice
to see you again in my newest posting after long time I can’t exist in my
blog...^.^
So
sorry for you that always waiting for my new post yaa..=)
OK,.
In
this time, I want you to think and give your opinion about my post..=)
Let
us talk about prostitution and human trafficking....^o^
Actually, we can’t separate both
of that things. They are inextricably linked. So, we should be clear that we
have to talk about both prostitution and trafficking togather. Prostitution anf
trafficking begin with the demand for victimas to be used in prostitution. It
begins when men go in search of sex that can be purchased. In countries where
prostitution is illegal, it begins when pimps place orders with their criminal
networks for women and children. In countries where prostitution is legal, it
begins when brothels places job ads with government employment agencies. For
example in Czech Republic that being a destination country for Western European
sex tourists. It estimate that 65 percent of men who buy sex acts there are
foreigners.
Over the past decade, the most
popular proposed solution is legalization of prostitution to reduce and
eliminate street prostitution. But, in fact, legalization does not reduce
prostitution or trafficking. Both activities increase because men can legally
buy sex acts and pimps and brothels keepers can legally sell and profit from
them.
There are four components that
make – up the demand: 1) the men who buy commercial sex acts, 2) the exploiters
who make up the sex industry, 3) the states that are destination countries, 4)
the culture that tolerates or promotes sexual exploitation. We should also open
our mind that the women who join that prostitution have their own reason. Most of
them are because of economical reason.
Many people did not agree with
the legalization of prostitution. Because it actually increase the victims. We could
greatly reduce the number of victims, if the demand for them was penalized. If there
were no men seeking to buy sex acts, no women and children would be bought and
sold. If there were no states that
profited from the sex trade, there would be no regulation that facilitated the
flow of women from poor towns to wealtheir sex industry centers.
To build up your mind I will give
a little explanation about ther reason for legalize and not legalize
prostitution.
Three reason to legalize
Prostitution which are: 1) It’s safer for both the prostitutes and their
costumers. If it’s legal, the prostitutes don’t have to be on the streets, don’t
have to risk meeting customers in dark alleys or other non-safe place. 2) We can
tax it and getting more revenue in. 3) Sexual activities are a natural
component of life. There are people who can rarely get it through means other
than prostitution-people who are severely disable, for example.
10 Reason for NOT legalizing
prostitution by Janice G. Raymond are 1) legalization/descriminalization of
prostitution is a gift to pimps traffickers and the sex industry, 2)
legalization of prostitution and the sex industry promotes sex trafficing, 3)
it does not control the sx industry but expands it, 4) it increase
clandestine,hidden, illegal, and street prostitution, 5) increase child
prostitutions, 6) does not protect the women in prostitution, 7) increase the
demand of prostitution, 8) does not promote women healt, 9) does not enhance
women’s choice, 10) women in system of prostitution do not want the sex
industry legalized.
So, by looking for that all
reason, what do you think? How is your way to make it better? What opinion that
come in your mind about prostitution and trafficking it self?
For me, there are many ways to
reduce prostitution, if all people working togather and have awareness also pay
attention for it.
I’m waiting for you
comment....^.^
Legalize it is not the answer. Why ? tax collection is more difficult, more young generation will be jump to this industries, and then how to control women exploitation ?
BalasHapusThe best thing to do is give them legal jobs and protect women and children from sexual abuse.
One mosque in surabaya, placed in red-district, they ask prostitute people to come to "pengajian", and sometime give them a free-training, and buy old-prostituion-house.
