Prostitution

By all means let it be made a criminal offence for any person above the age of consent (which should be raised to 18) to buy, or attempt to buy, sex. And let it also be made be made a criminal offence, with an equal sentence, for any person above that age to sell, or attempt to sell, sex. Since the former are usually men and the latter usually women, are women morally and intellectually equal to men, or not?

And how much longer must be endure the "free" market, which cannot be at all without being in prostitution, pornography, drugs, the lot? On Jeremy Vine today, even Harriet Harman had the wit to say the word "globalisation".

  1. "Free" market is a contradiction in terms. If you're buying something it's not free - by definition.

    With sex as with drugs - targeting the supply is no way to deal with the demand.

    Narrow minded people like you are putting women at risk.I work as an escort... I do it to bring money in for my childfen to have a better life. It is a job. Without us there will be more rapes..are you that blind you cannot see this?
    People like you think that we are all dependent on class a drugs. You are so far from the truth.
    YOU should be ashamed of yourself...along with Harriet Harman. Your bloodymindedness will put women at risk...that is a FACT
