Jessica from Ohio says:
Thank you for one of the few realistic portrayals of the higher end escort trade. Too many media representations would have viewers believe that every escort is a drug addict and every client is a gun toting pimp. Thank you for acknowledging that many, many women in this business despise drugs and have no pimp in the shadows enslaving them. Drugs, violence, and slavery are certainly real evils but are separate from the core of escorting.

Michael from Indiana says:
Give me a break, prostitution has been going on for a thousand years... It will never stop... Just like booze and prohibition... LEGALIZE IT... At least the government could get some tax dollars out of it.

Sylvia from Chicago says:
Legalize it. Keep them clean and have them pay taxes.

Paul Mulwitz from Washington says:
Great Show! I enjoyed it and learned a lot. Still, I must come down on the side of prostitution being illegal - if not vigorously enforced law. For most of us the conventional dating and marriage system works really well. I have never heard anyone make the same claim for prostitution. People seem to find prostitution acceptable to varying degrees but not really desirable.

Jeffrey from New Jersey says:
I just think that by decriminalizing it, it would make it something that could be controlled. The women could have to be checked by doctors, to receive a "clean bill of health" and it could be a tax revenue stream. Just look at Las Vegas as a model.

I mean if we're behind a Woman's choice, when it comes to abortion in order to make it a safe procedure, why doesn't the same pricipal apply when it comes to a Woman's choice regarding sex? If they're going to do it anyway, why not reduce the risk that is involved in the business?

D. from California says:
We need to separate our selves from small mindedness in the law & remove all victimless crimes from the books. Make people responsible for their actions but only when someone else is harmed. Taxation, regulation & training concerning Prostitution, [illicit] Drugs & Constitutional gun possession will, in my opinion result in a lot less stress in our lives, a more secure Tax base, plus a huge reduction of inmates in our ridiculously over populated prison system.

Wanda from New York says:
It's a shame for some of these women to sell themselves for money. They are just degrading themselves and have no respect for themselves.

Charlie from New York says:
Legalize it, register them and keep them clean. It is good for the country and the world!

Brian from Utah says:
The further our country drifts from fundamental moral values, the worse off we will be. Success in this country should be based on honesty and morality. It is disgusting that anyone would consider that this is a real debate. If you believe that it should be legal for women to be put into these kinds of situations for the short term perceived benefit of others, you should do some serious introspection.

Scott from California says:
Prostitution being illegal is right up there in stupidity with Prohibition. Make it legal, tax it, medically screen it, etc, and you do away with the pimps and drugs surrounding it. Then I have to pay tax dollars to cops to enforce-- this sickens me.

Tom from Maryland says:
Every working girl is someone's daughter. Making prostitution illegal only pushes young women outside the law in a moment when they need the protection of the law the most. Personally, I think that is the real immorality of the situation.

Gene from California says:
Will we never learn…never pass a law that is unenforceable. Men and women have exchanged 'favors' since the beginning of time. I just don't get it, never understood the criminalization of sex exchange.

Michael from Florida says:
Prostitution should be decriminalized to lower disease and related other crimes but ONLY if certain conditions are rigorously enforced. All women or men must be licensed; minimum age, 21; mandatory monthly health checks for sexually transmitted disease, HAID, and drug problems such as cocaine--(all health tests to be paid for by the prostitute); restricted areas where the trade may occur (i.e. several European cities, like Amsterdam). To engage in prostitution under ANY other circumstances should remain a criminal offense and pimping should always be a felony.

David from North Carolina says:
This is just one more example of the slippery slope that America is being led down by amoral leaders. And San Francisco to the list of places I can never take my children to visit.

Michael from Pennsylvania says:
Why do we continue to criminalize an act between 2 or more consenting adults? Why not legalize it in specific areas of states, monitor the health of participants and tax the services rendered?
