For what price…

Masopher presents: The Deep-ness

Masopher’s mind is not about me and a semi-notional character lamenting on the inevitable destruction of man. It is a website about freedom of thought and freedom of expression. So yes I say  whatever I feel like within reason but you can too.

I met this free thinker what seems like decades ago and she impressed me not with her ability to talk over everyone else or her firm and clear world view but with her pragmatism, keen listening and understanding skills. Despite her petite-ness she came across as somewhat of a big sister to her friends, an ear and a voice of wisdom. She was also slightly “touched” as are many of her pals; not in the way that little Vietnamese boys are touched by Gary Glitter but touched in the sense of slightly out of kilter with what mainstream wants her to be. A perfect addition to Masopher’s Mind. She and her pack of shy geniuses as well as you other wack jobs are always invited into The Mind to help make it great!

Ok, without further ado: The Deep-ness:


I personally don’t have many “set in stone views”, however if I did, it would be this; Prostitution should be legalised (with conditions and safeguards). This might offend a lot of people, I am not trying to be controversial I just believe that this would benefit most communities.
Three main criteria:
 
 
 
 

 

·         they must be healthy,

·         at least 18

·         and protected.

 

The benefits I could see with the legalisation of solicitation are hopefully reducing the number of sexual transmitted diseases which are happily hopping between many people from all walks of life. Whilst this wouldn’t eliminate all STIs , I believe it would reduce their proliferation.
Hopefully it would guarantee better health measures for the punter and the seller, with the lady and gentleman prostitutes getting regular check ups and ensuring that the correct protection is there from condoms to security.
Condoms to prevent the spread of sexual transmitted diseases as well as preventing unwanted “little people”.
Security to prevent prostitutes from suffering any physical harm… security not in a form of a pimp but just a plain old body guard who is paid a wage, and not a thief.
Many prostitutes are drug addicts and from what I have seen, it’s a reality. Men and women might continue to solicit illegally but maybe punters should have a clear choice of whom they were choosing to do the hanky panky with.
Child prostitutes are a reality and there will be people who still have desires towards young children. If there was a legal alternative that is clean and safe it might reduce the number of children being harmed in this manner. This is possibly the most important reason why I would advocate legalisation.

    So true! But isnt this a way to also create tax for sex? If it is legalized as a profession prostitutes will have to pay income tax and union fees? This would be in effect turning the government into a giant pimp. And this is also basically a promotion of sex outside of the institution of marriage. Conservatives and the religious would not support this move.

    Healthcare for a profession that by definition involves multiple sexual partners would be a nightmare, aside from STI’s only permanent methods of birth control can guarentee that no children are born.

    Good thinking material.
